Comments:
Holiday, I must say, has been pretty good to me. I was new to working as a secretary but right away my counselor had faith in me. I had the same counselor for years and a high pay rate. I've had my longest temp assignments with this agency and would recommend them to entry-level temps. I left them because they kept sending me to Ann Taylor and I was already there twice and outgrew the place. After turning their assignments down they stopped offering me jobs. It's ok because I gained alot of experience working for them. They are professional and courteous.
