Comments:
I haven't worked for them for years. When I first started doing word
processing I got to know the owner (Judy Foss) who went out of her way
to get me working every day.
While their rates are usually lower than most other agencies they are
ideal for people first starting out in the field of word
processing..
I have always found them to be very supportative and upfront with me
at all times.
Years later when there was a slow down in the industry I had called
Judy and asked her if she could find me work. Right up front she told
me that her agency charges so much less to compete with the larger
agencies so she couldn't give me the rate I was use to. She would,
however, since she knew me, my professionalism and my skill level,
take less of cut so she could pay me more. Normally she doesn't do
this, but since she knew me since I first started wp.
I strongely suggest this agency if you are first starting out and need
the experience and want an agency that doesn't tell you bs, like so
many other agencies do.
