Comments:
If you find a good counselor this agency is not half bad.
You will wait for up to three hours for testing and meeting with counselor. Be aggressive and try to bypass the large waiting room.
The only issue that I had with this agency is that after my counselor left, the person who replaced her was awful and got me really poor assignments.
Also to note, they did not get me any work two years later when I went in to find temp work, I was told by a new woman that they were "getting killed with internships".
Needless to say, this place was ok, while I was working.
