I have nothing but nice things to say about Aerotek. I have been dealing with them since 2010 and it's been nothing but a positive experience. The recruiters are courteous, professional and just really nice to talk with. If they have any positions that they feel you would be a match for, they will do their best to get you an interview and assist with getting you hired. Not to mention they are always communicating with you. And if you have dealt with temp agencies in the past, then you know once you meet in person with a recruiter, that is probably the last time you will hear from them. If your job search is not going as well as you would like, get in touch with Aerotek. Based on my past experiences, this is the ONLY temp agency I would recommend. read more

Previous review stated: "And if you have dealt with temp agencies in the past, then you know once you meet in person with a recruiter, that is probably the last time you will hear from them." "...probably the last time you will hear from them" is the only experience I've had with this outfit. Despite over a decade of experience in my field. Despite checking my references. Despite being told I'm the best "fit" for this position they've found. Despite getting in touch with them asking "Have you heard anything regarding this position yet......." Nothing. Absolutely nothing. It's a sorry state of affairs that useless middlemen are now in charge of professional employment opportunities. Businesses simply don't want to be bothered any more, so they outsource something THEY SHOULD BE INVOLVED IN FROM THE START to employment agencies. Avoid this one unless you want to be proffered something only to ultimately receive silence in return. read more

Back in December at the Woburn office I met with Robert Pruyne to discuss a long term assignment. Due to the holidays it took until January to set up an interview at a bank in Everett. Unfortunate I became sick and reached out to Robert Pruyne to reschedule. Well he wouldn't reschedule and that asshole fed me a bunch of bullshit. Lied that he informed the client I was "a little under the weather and they'd be fine with me coming in." Now you know that's a lie as no company would agree to that. I wanted to reschedule and because I wouldn't go to the interview he refused to do any services with me. Fuck him and good riddance!!!! He was only concerned about his quota, not my health. read more

This agency contacts me about once every two months. They have my information on file from several years ago. Every time that I get contacted it is by a different recruiter who tells me that s/he has multiple positions that would be great opportunities, and that we should get together and talk. Several times I have responded by phone or email and then received no response. Several times I have actually met with someone in person, had an interview, gone through all my criteria of what I am looking for, my strengths, my dreams, reviewed my work samples. The recruiter promises to be in touch next week and the week after and never once has any of them followed through. The last recruiter with whom I met, I explained this frustration and she said that would not happen this time, that she would follow up with me. Well, she did not. In short, don't waste your time. I should also note here that people tell me that I interview very well, and I have had great success in interviews in general (not with Aerotek but with hiring managers.) What you can try is responding with an email asking several questions of the recruiter and see if s/he makes the effort to respond. read more

As an unemployed graphic designer who has hit upon some very hard times, I swallowed my pride and applied for a typing job they advertised last week. Previous to my design career, I worked in office admin during/after college; my total work history encompasses 27 years, and I type 130wpm (I typed 80wpm on a manual Underwood in high school). I'd like to take this moment to point out that my very first job with no work experience, no degree and no references was as a typist back in 1986 (after my first year of college), earning $5/hour. Adjusted for inflation today, that translates to $10.71 today. I had previously met with someone in the Westford office, which was a waste of time and downright offensive. I met with some kid half my age and the meeting ended on the negative observation that in order to proceed I'd need three references from my admin work of 20+ years ago ("You can't just call them?" Um, no, kid, I cannot just call someone I worked for twenty years ago; in fact, my boss from that job is dead.) I tried my best to I explain that my references attest to my design background of the last 17 years, but he just didn't get it. Of course, I never heard from that office again. Back to the typist job I applied for...I got a call from a girl I'm assuming was also half my age, she explained that this job pays $12/hour. I've had my own personal struggle dealing with these embarrassingly low salaries that are more in line with what I earned 25 years ago, but I wasn't going to take it out on her. But then she said, "Oh, you didn't give us those three references. Can you send those over?" Once again, I tried to explain my situation, that I have references for my design career. She then asked if they could attest to my typing skills. I said no, and the call ended. I then got an email from her stating, "I will check in with my partner and let you know what he thinks about moving forward." I replied back, attaching a PDF of my actual performance reviews from one of those old jobs (including the letter written to the CEO of the company begging him to make an exception to their wage freeze to give me a raise due to my exceptional performance). I got NO response to this email. (Does anyone else have the urge to barf at this point from reading this?) So, there you have it, folks. I am officially unqualified for a typing job with a salary circa 1986, even though I've been a member of the workforce for 27 years and I type 130wpm. Shame on you, Aerotek -- and you, too, Corporate America!!! When the majority of us have been relegated to a Reagan Administration salary and nobody can purchase your crap just watch this country collapse to Third World banana republic status. And when that happens, don't forget to say YOU BUILT THAT! read more

Its one thing to be thirsty for a sale but its another thing when you tell a client they qualify, call them in for an interview ask questions about their work experience and then tell them they arent qualified when you see them in person. I think that's the oldest trick in the book. But we'll see, you gave me the name of the company you're screening for. Ill let them tell me. read more

Met with a recruiter back in August, he was very nice, said we'd keep in touch about how the search was going. I didn't hear from him once. I made contact twice checking in and received an email that they had nothing for me. It is now January and I haven't heard from them at all. I found a job on my own. I"d never go back. read more

The first recruiter that I was working with was awesome he was always on the ball. Once he got promoted the two recruiters took his place were horrible Becky and Chris never returned calls and when I complained to their supervisor Becky told me I never got any messages from you. Why would I lie read more
