Comments:
I worked for this agency for nine months, after nine months I was hired by the host company. I worked for the company for a year. During this time I stayed in touch with the temp agency to let them know that this job was not going to last, and that I would like to be on there waiting list once again. After being let go from the job I tried to get another assignment and never heard anything again from the agency. This is a low level agency, they do not have good clients and the pay is lousy!

Note that all reviews are individual contributions and do not represent the opinion of the site administrator. They have not been independently verified, so there is nothing to stop someone from posting a pack of lies. Some agencies with great reviews may be really bad, and some agencies with bad reviews may be really great. As with everything online, be careful and don't believe everything you read.
