Comments:
The tests were impossible. I've taken a lot of temp agency computer tests, and did well, ans theirs were far more difficult than any other. My first few paychecks bounce, and they blamed the bank and told ME to take care of it. The staffers at People Finders never get back to you and pretty much lie to you when they do. They yes you to death and then...nothing. No paid holidays or prsonal days even after a year long continous assignment. No benefits, even the lousy plans. They chrge employees for direct deposit ($3 a check), and their assignments are lousy, very ghetto. Do not go to people finders.
