Interview
Like anyone else from finance or accounting field would try to connect with Robert Half , i did the same thing and I feel it was the worst decision of my professional life.
I connected with a recruiter (Chicago office) on LinkedIn since I saw few openings that was of my interest. So, here the best thing was they connected super fast called me for an interview next day. Took 5 rounds with different people without stating for which role and what are they looking for. While the recruiters had no positions for me they wanted someone to work at $15/hour rate after completing MBA. That was the most ridiculous thing!! Firstly, they don’t offer competitive rate at all Infact its soo low that you can’t even help your survival. Secondly, after completing MBA, Finance who would want to work for such salary?
It’s been 5 months now I have been trying to connect with all the possible recruiters in Chicago office and they all connect nicely in the first go later they tell you to be in touch with on the one person who had taken interview. In my case, the person who called me for an interview still doesn’t have a single opening which can fit my profile.. I don’t know what is he even working for? Chilling in office? I have followed up so many times but he always said he has nothing to offer me. Really your firm helps people in finance or accounting field where you can’t even get a single position in 5 months?
Moreover, if you try to connect with other recruiters who are dealing with position that fits your profile refuse to help you or even See your resume only because you were in touch with other recruiter at the very first time and only that person can help you!
In all, I would never ever go to Robert Half again and most of the recruiters in Chicago office are useless. Save your time and efforts and don’t let yourself sell at a very low pay! They are just dealing your skills and making humongous profit on your talent and skill without being considerate of what you are worthy for!

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Robert Half
Interview
I had an awful experience with Robert Half during my recent job search. While I appreciated the initial help in finding an opportunity, the communication throughout the process was extremely poor and unprofessional.
After receiving an offer for a position, I requested a short extension to make a thoughtful decision. Instead of accommodating or even discussing my request with the company that I was being hired for, the offer was withdrawn with little explanation because it "Would hurt their brand". It felt like my concerns and career goals were dismissed without any consideration.
As someone at the beginning of my professional career, I was hoping for a more supportive and transparent experience. Unfortunately, this experience has left me questioning what this business stands for. I expected more from a company that positions itself as a leader in staffing and recruitment.
Only got the first round interview, They said the position is closed already however they said they have a program which can refer me to other company. The interview is just behavior questions.
