Comments:
I started working with this agency through a referral. My counselor is friendly and very helpful. I'd recommed this agency to anyone looking for a job and refer them to Lynn Radler. The day that she interviewed me, on my way home from her office, my pager went off; less than 2 hours after our initial visit. She had an assignment for me!

It ended suddenly in one month, I called her the day I found out and 1 day later I took my second assignment. While on the second assignment, the person I worked for was very difficult. I stayed and took the abuse and weirdness for five months. I called Lynn and explained I had to move on. She was very understanding. I worked until the end of the week and before the day ended, she called me at my second assignment with my new assignment. She's really terrific!!

Note that all reviews are individual contributions and do not represent the opinion of the site administrator. They have not been independently verified, so there is nothing to stop someone from posting a pack of lies. Some agencies with great reviews may be really bad, and some agencies with bad reviews may be really great. As with everything online, be careful and don't believe everything you read.
