This agency was ok, for a while. They got me some ok jobs, but it wasn't a lot of money, and the one time I was somewhere where I was making money, my placement person screwed it up, and I lost a potentially permanent job. The main problem with this agency is that most of the trendy little girls who work for them have attitude, and they will try to b.s. you all they can. You can either spend a lot of energy trying to stay on top of them, or go to another agency like I did.
