Comments:
I registered there twice. The first time I registered, I didn't get anywhere with them in terms of assignments; called in my availability and nothing. Ended up being kept busy by other agencies and eventually found a full-time job. When I got laid off, I called to reactivate my paperwork and I was told to come in but wasn't told that I would have to re-do all paperwork and testing...if I knew that, I wouldn't have bothered.

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. I take no responsibility for what comes up when you google yourself.
