    In the Beginning they appeared to be helpful. Communication was alright. I went in for an…read moreinterview, got everything set up and got 2 jobs to pick from. As soon as I left, I had to constantly try to contact them for any news or updates. I never got any texts, emails or phone calls at all from anyone. I feel they selectively choose who they want to help and claim they have a high success rate. Stay away from this company. They wont do anything for you except put on a smile and give you a ton of lip service

    I hired people through Opti Staffing on several occasions over the years. The first placement it…read moreis clear they got lucky because several years later when I wanted to fill the office manager job they failed. It was a blowout. After a long period of search, and my reminders, they gave me two candidates one with recognizable emotional problems. She cried in the interview about her estranged son, as one example. The second candidate I hired and within the month, and a week after I paid Opti Staffing, the candidate went on a party binge when I was out of town. She invited her friends to the office. The police were called. Turns out Opti did not do a background check ... "oops...." ... Sequoyah Scholz the Anchorage manager said. Did Opti guarantee the placement or give a refund? No. Six months later they offered me a candidate that stayed exactly one day then disappeared. After that Opti Staffing and Sequoyah went dark and has not written or answered a call. Amazingly unprofessional and unethical.

    Well I am very thankful that this institution exists and you can go there and ask for assistance…read morewith important things while you are transitioning looking for work or going to school I have had two caseworkers at Ninestar now and can I just ask to treat some people with dignity and not talk to them with sarcasm I'm sure that there are people that try to abuse the system but I am not and I just want to be spoken to like a normal human being I don't need the sarcasm I hate having to ask for assistance especially because of the ways that one is spoken to it is not dignifying and I cannot wait to be out of school to have a job with good income and not ever need assistance again I hope that never in my life I need assistance again and if you're working with Ninestar I would highly recommend to have all your documents in order and to provide the papers not on the day when you are supposed to provide them but either the same day, the day before, or the day after they request you to bring the stuff in! because it does take them a while to get back with that. you stop in to send emails to leave messages it still takes them a while probably because they are working on a lot of people, given, and they have a high volume of clients but if you don't have time for that then I suggest that you stay on top of them and that you turn in everything sooner way sooner than they wanted and you keep track of everything then maybe things will be done on time from their end and you will receive in time what you need perhaps and of course let's not forget to be thankful that that institution is there at all!! I wanted to give only two stars but I am so thankful for the help and that is why am giving three stars but the way I'm being spoken to I do not appreciate it at all at all at all!
