Comments:
Its a very small agency.
I go in and the receptionist tells me to fill out my name and number
and the positions I want and the pay I want. Thats it. And when I am
done since its so quick to write down, she makes me wait! and for
nothing, since she is only online looking at HOTJOBS.com and not doing
anything important.
She makes me wait till she feels like she wants to take my information
on the paper. Like 10 minutes and then she tells me that they will
call if they have anything. !!!!!! So, what was the point of
waiting??????
The next day they call me with a position that I obviously do not want
, and had nothing to do with what I had put down, and the pay was
about 5 dollars less than what I wanted.
They are a very NOT personal agency, and just throws people in to jobs
that they do not want, and do not even interview you to see whats your
best fit. VEERY BAD!
