Comments:
To update the 1996 mention of Winston, my experience with them is about the same, not a bad temp agency, gets you out there, especially if you get high reviews from their clients. Not racist, if qualified will send you to any fortune 500 Company front office spot. Carol is the best, down to earth, no nonsense and good sense of humor. But I do agree with one thing - Alice Rodziewicz was right, they take out too much tax and their benefits package kinda bites. And that shift differential thing is still not up to par (I left them in 1998). Still, would recommend. Be prepared, Front office is usually quite hectic.
