Pros

the company contacts you in a timely matter for oppurtunuties until you are no longer desired by the job placemant

Cons

Do not communicate nor care about the people they acquire for job placemants. Drove a long period of time to not be greeted by an account exectuive that I had been in contact with and it wasn't until I sent 2 emails that I got a response on my status of employment that they had already known a full day previous

Thank you for your feedback! We apologize that you had a negative experience in your previous job search, with us. We strive to provide exceptional service to both clients and candidates alike but we can always improve in these areas. I know that you mentioned response time and keeping you up to date as a couple of the primary issues you had but was there anything else that you thought we could have done to have improved your experience? Any insights would be helpful. With that said, if you ever see anything else that you'd like us to improve, feel free to let us know.

Pros

Hey they paid me on time.

Cons

We had a contract employer bring a gun to work, no arrest, we were just pacified. No further discussion.

Pros

Not hard to find placement working for fairly decent companies. Initial interactions are attentive and helpful. Office is clean and appealing to the eye.

Cons

Little follow up and those efforts made are lackluster and not helpful. I perceive the recruiters as lazy after placement, seemingly no interest in contractors needs or concerns once assigned. No real attention paid to the interest or abilities of the contractor/applicant.
