Comments:
I have had a great deal of experience working with temporary agencies from both sides of the fence, from hiring temporary employees to becoming a temporary employee myself. In my previous experience of hiring temporary help nobody stood out as much as Vanguard. Therefore, when the tides turned, they were number one on my list in helping me to find work. They lived up to my every expectation, taking the time to get to know me and my skills. They listened and, above all, really understood what I was looking for. Thanks to Vanguard, I am now in a position that is a true fit. There are an abundance of agencies out there, but Vanguard truly outshines the competition.
