To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience.

They won't return your calls.
Very unprofessional staff

Professional but lack of opportunies

The staff was very professional. They test on typing and software skills. The agency does seem rather small and I was never contacted for any assignments and/or jobs. I wouldn't waste my time with them honestly. If you're looking for temp work or long term assignments, try the bigger agencies such was Robert Half, Adecco and Ranstad

Very unprofessional

I believe additional training should be given to the staff so that they are able to communicate more effectively with their clients.

Very sketchy......Save your carfare and your time...

I was called in by a recruiter for an immediate position which they wanted to fill for a Medical Biller. I came in on 1/18/2016 (MLK day) took numerous tests and scored very high, just to be told that the office where the job was closed for the holiday. They wanted to send me to New Jersey for an interview and I told them that I wanted to work in the city. I left that day,someone said they will be in touch and I haven't heard from them since. I should have followed my gut instinct and stayed in my bed.

Never got me work

I registered and jumped through all of the hoops associated. I never received one work assignment. I hold an MBA and I'm a licensed Notary Public.

Not Happy

Never sent on an interview still unemployed. Everyone was nice when I was in the office and I was made to believe they would help me.

One assignment

Worked for about 2 weeks in January 2016
When an assignment got cancelled abruptly by client I was given a hard time about the fact that my time sheet was at the clients location in NJ and I lived in NY
Never contacted about any additional positions
That was a year ago and now you want feedback???

unsatisfied

Lack of follow up. I was called for an opportunity, interviewed and after submitting my resume to the customer, I received no further details on feed back. Neither have been called again for nothing else.

Worst to work with

Never return phone calls or respond to email...a huge waste of time to deal with.

Not a real company

I have not got one call or email from them since I met to discuss my options. Have not heard back from them at all!
