Comments:
Update has been exellent! While it took them some time to get my paperwork in order, they have been very diligent in finding me work. They found a perfect fit for me at a firm I can stay as long as I want, but even before that they were always calling me for assignments that I either had conflicts with or was unavailable for. They let you know if your timesheet is late, and are incredibly accomodating with everything. They are also very hands off about issues with the firm you are assigned to.
