Comments:
I cannot make specific comments about the agency itself because I haven't worked with them. Although, I will say that I registered with a Shannon, who by the way is an absoulte pleasure. She called me almost every day, almost twice a day with regard to mostly permanent openings. I was offered a temp assignment for 2 weeks but could not accept it due to a scheduling conflict.

I interviewed for an office manager position with one of their clients, as was uninteristed in the position. I received a call from the counselor later the next day asking me if I had agreed to meet with another member of their clients staff. I told them that I declined because of non-interest.

I am not sure what the client told her, but she has never called me back since. Apparently, they claim that I agreed to meet with a second manager but never showed up. Although, I denied this .. the counselor refuses to return my telephone calls. I was apalled and find that to be extremely unprofessional.

I wouldn't say that I don't recommend the agency, I would just watch out for that particular recruiter.
