Comments:
I was contacted by Computing Concepts Inc. when they saw my resume on HotJobs and was told about a financial temp position. An interview with the CEO/President was scheduled at a Starbucks in Manhattan. Based on about 5 minutes, including being interrupted by phone his cell phone, he hires me. Now, here's the catch. Before the interview I was told the wage was $x/hour, but at the interview I was told they pay per diem ($8x/hour). The President suggested if I wanted to get promoted I would work overtime, of course unpaid. And the reality in finance is you almost always work more than 50hours/week. In conclusion, they lied. Fair warning if you are ever involved with them.

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.
