I think that the staff at Advantage is great. Not only do they make sure that I keep working but they do as much as possible to help me find permanent jobs as well. As a recent college graduate, Advantage has provided me with essential exposure to the corporate world that will only be beneficial in the long-run. The staff is excellent and Advantage is highly recommended.

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.
