Comments:
I had an assignment through this agency that lasted one full year. They did very well with me. After the position ended I have hardly heard from them. They have sent me back to this client three times just for one or two days. Also, I had a data entry position through them for four days. After a year, I thought they would be anxious to give me another assignment. I did very well and only missed one day of work due to a religious holiday.

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.
