Comments:
Upfront, I want to say my friend had a very good experience with this
agency. I was not so lucky. When I first spoke to them, I was
worried about paying rent so I asked them how much their jobs usually
paid. They told me they wanted to be honest with me, so they told me
that most jobs start at $12/hr. Fine, o.k. Well, I got stuck with a
job that paid $10/hr. In New York City, folks! Insane. Anyway, I
loved the place where I worked but I asked them to please look for
something a little higher paying. I have computer skills aplenty so I
figured it was not too much to ask. I waited for an entire month,
calling them every week and at the end, every other day. They simply
ignored me. I went to another agency as soon as that job was over, I
was worried they wouldn't find me another one, since I basically
didn't exist to them!
