The process was very easy for me they took care of literally everything. Every Thursday all of the future soldiers along with the recruiters would go out and do some physical exercise and have a lot of fun together while also learning about the Army. I 100% recommend going to see SSG Wilson or SFC Cota. They're awesome. Ps. I was recruited by them in Nov 2016 and I've been in the army almost 1.5 years so far and love it. I got stationed in HAWAII . Who woulda known ? ‍ Don't be afraid, they won't bite I promise

She was super transparent with the process and also let me know that I could leave at anytime during every point of the process, which made me feel SUPER lucky that SSG Carig was my recruiter since some friends I had made along the way have told me about their recruiter stories... a little side story but she had also helped a friend of mine get the job he wanted even when it was full!! :D I became somewhat acquainted with the other recruiters in the office too! They're all so silly and cool! I've even learnt how to map coordinates with SSG Roldan which was a cool skill! (You can even ask them for tutoring/advise on military skills which is very nice of them!) I'd say my experience at this recruiting station was too good to be expressed all on a yelp review, I'm glad it was them that I met them before any recruiting station. I'm a very stressing recruit-ie and I'm glad they didn't turn me away after the month mark haha! But if you're reading this SSG Carig, this review goes out to you!! You were super patient and never gave up on me!!!^^

I responded to one of their ads online, was called in for an interview with the recruiter, and was set up for an interview with the hiring company that same day. I was hired almost immediately, stopped back at Redline's office to fill out paperwork, and started the new job a few days later. It all happened very quickly. That being said, the experience was easy and professional. The recruiter I had worked with (Dana Baker) is very friendly and easy to talk to. She's clear, communicative, and professional. Ty, the receptionist/admin, is also friendly and helpful. The paperwork/reference materials provided were all straightforward and easy to read. Their timesheet system is simple to use. Their office is easy to find and there is a large parking area in the back.

I've tried to get help through this place twice. The first time, the experience ended with some…read morewoman telling me that if I can get a job at McDonald's. then take that. This time, the second time, my experience has been even more painful. Supposedly, I entered into some sort of "program" to get me employed but thus far it has been months of going around and around with one woman after another who has done nothing but refer me to "workshops" led by women who openly admit that they cannot get hired doing anything else. Yes, the Metro Career Center is clean, but I really wonder if some of these overly enthusiastic reviews on here are created by employees simply to ensure that the funding continues. The truth is that you can get a computer at the library. You can get a listing of temp agencies (that are not hiring) from Google. I can tell myself the basics of resume design. I can (even better) ask ChatGPT. My current "case manager" does nothing. She knows that I am going to go hungry soon so she sends me two links to dead-end job listings from companies that thus far have ignored my application. I'm not qualified to be a lot attendant for a parking company? Do I need two degrees for such a prestigious position? Now my case manager refuses to return my emails, even after I have begged for more help, or at least some moral support. Terrible. These Career Centers do nothing and are staffed by people who are otherwise unemployable themselves. As I've already written, the library also has free computers. The people at the Career Center claim that somewhere at the end of the rainbow there may be Department of Labor training, but you never get there. The pot of gold is a mirage. It's just the same thing over and over again, if you are even that lucky. Redo your resume. Redo your resume. Redo your resume. Get no job hits. San Diego's job market is the worst I've ever seen. Vastly too many people. And most of the people doing the hiring are very very biased and prejudicial about who they hire. Too old? Too this? Too that? Too bad. Get your shopping cart and pick a nice corner in a nearby parking lot to live. And no one cares. Even the people allegedly paid to help you. Five stars for superficial appearance. Zero stars for actually doing anything to help you get employed.

I'm thinking of joining the army as an officer. What do you think of that? Mom: well now you have really lost it. church what time? I still decided to go in and talk to a recruiter. They wanted me to take a pre ASVAB and I was like "woah, I just have questions, not trying to move forward in any way at this point." Glad, I did that, because just an FYI at the point of an application, they have to document everything, prior to an application it's "off the record". Keep that in mind when you decide or don't decide to disclose things that may immediately disqualify you if you were to tell them. Do your research prior. I spoke to Sgt. Kong, super nice guy, a a bunch of other guys who came up to answer questions. I was there for over an hour, was going to apply and then learned about some things "off the record" and decided not to. If you have the ability to join the reserves as an officer (what I wanted to do), I highly recommend it, but go in and educate yourself without doing an application first.

I went to this Office after knowing i was going nowhere and played at the Previous office, Everyone at this Office Is Great they all work as a team no one is competing against one another. They all helped me go thru my process from the beginning! They all make sure that this is what you really want to do from SGT. Dean, SGT.Lindsay, SGT.Win, SGT.Shin, SGT.Kong, and Future Soldier Leader SGT.Price. They all make sure that when you make this big decision theres no going back. They are Great, Fun, very Friendly Recruiters. But they know that every step till you leave for Basic Training is 110% important as well!! Im glad that I saw the other reviews on Yelp for this Office, and if you would ever ask me what office should I go to sit down and ask Questions Kearny Mesa US Army Recruiting Office is the place I would tell you to go and the only place I would tell you to go. There are a lot of Recruiting Offices out that have Recruiters that just look at you just as a number they need to get for there quota, But Not Kearny Mesa they look at you as A person making a Great descision and help you get the Job you want if its Active,Reserve or getting you the Job that will help you for the future Civilian career you always wanted. So I tell you again If you want to go into the Military as a career or for experience and your thinking about Army as the Branch the Go visit or give call to Kearny Mesa Recruiting Office.

I stumbled across A-Star Staffing, not knowing they were a staffing agency. I had never considered…read morethe possibility of finding a job this way but here I was thrilled about the opportunity because Amanda was truly interested to learn about me to find the perfect match. I first interviewed with one company, we learned we were not a match, but Amanda immediately sent me other opportunities she felt would be a better match. On my second interview with the second company, with the magic powers of Amanda, I found the most amazing compatible human beings and organization for me and for my future career goals--I found my Dream Job! It was a pleasure working with A-Star Staffing, the onboarding and transition to full hire employee with the new organization I work for now was seamless! Amanda was extremely supportive and has been instrumental to my success at my full-time job now. She was reliable, genuine, caring, and helpful. A-Star Staffing have truly been a blessing--I feel fortunate to have found them! I highly recommend A-Star Staffing, but only if you are serious about finding a job and have good intentions to stay on good terms with your potential employer, because A-Star Staffing will search for the most compatible job for you to remain permanent and happy! In case you are wondering.....I am few months from completing my 1st year at my new job!! Thank you, Amanda.

I inquired about a job and got a call for a zoom interview, then I was given 2 tests to complete but the link was only letting me access to one so I reached out to the recruiter about it and told her that so had completed one out of the two and sent her screenshots of the error I received while trying to do the second test and she replied back very promptly and informed me that she had sent another link for the test and so I finally get that test done and informed the recruiter and I get an email from her saying "Thank you" So I assumed that they would get back to me. I tried calling them multiple times but nobody ever answered the phones. 10+ days go by and I'm calling but nobody ever answered or returned the calls so I proceeded to email a follow up after that since I wasn't getting anywhere and Woow! Weeks after I finally hear back with the classic "we don't have anything that fits your skill set" SO THEN WHY EVEN TALK ABOUT A POSITION THAT YOU WERE NOT EVEN GOING TO PRESENT ME FOR??? So unprofessional! They need to figure out their stuff because why even try to help others when your office and staff isn't working properly. Other than the one Express office in Camino del rio this is the second office that just doesn't produce good outcomes. IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO WASTE YOUR TIME DO NOT COME WORK FOR THIS INDIVIDUALS

About a week later, I was very excited to see an email come in with the header/title "Great News!". Imagine my disappointment when I open the email only to see it's just advertisement for more positions. Ummm...what about the ones I APPLIED TO? 2 days after that, I got another email with the title "Next Steps". I wasn't so excited this time. As expected, it was just more positions. And the spamming continued. 2 weeks after I initially applied for the positions, I got a response. Unfortunately, I was being passed over for one of the positions. That's fine, at least I got an answer. I still haven't heard back about the other 4. KICKER: 1 week after I was declined, I was sent an email for the position I was declined for. The email didn't have a bunch of positions in it...Just. That. One. Now, I realize how things are these days. Everything is automated, yadda yadda...apply your butt off, get no response is the norm. It is an awful practice, but it is what it is for now. But, to get an email from AN EMPLOYEE at Randstad (not just from Randstad.com) for a particular position that you were already declined for AND without hearing about the other positions you've applied for? Bad business. Don't waste your time.
