Comments:
My experience was great: I filled out an online form and got a telephone call about four minutes later from them (it was almost creepy). I went in, took the tests, filled out the application, and talked with an agent. She called me the next day and I started my first assignment the day after that. She also called me to see how I was doing and to offer other jobs, which is a nice for a temp service since most expect you to call them. I had a little difficulty cashing my first check, but other than that the experience was a good one.
