Easy to deal with temporary Employment Agency. They used Wisely for payment. Good for Labor type jobs.

There's no reason anyone should wait over an hour to receive their checks. Stop wasting people's time.

A useless bunch of people. Year-round they will say there is no work available because of (insert time of year, season, etc.--example: "Work has been slow because it's the new year blah blah..."). They also have the same go-to non-response to make it seem as that they are not as useless as they are. They will say something along the lines of "But, you know what, let me take down your info." Then they will just reiterate your information they clearly have on file. "John Doe, right? At [insert address] and your best callback number is [insert number]. We'll make you as available." Them marking you as available is next to useless, btw. read more

Hello my name is Manuel h and this review is for Elwood staffing in Torrance, I applied a month ago and have yet to be called so I've been calling every single day, well Janet Velazquez was talking to Gabby armenta and Maria thinking she hung up the phone but I was still on the line and said I need to stop calling already and Gabby said yeah I had them before too he does and I said hello I'm still on the phone and they hung up totally unprofessional I asked to speak with the manager and they asked me to Araceli and I know she's a recruiter supervisor but she's not the manager of the place. The manager Miss kismet, felt embarrassed that her staff did that and even told me I was very skilled but I never had a position with him thanks for reading read more

Well I've been in this business for 20 years, and never experienced a staffing agency so unprofessional. I applied almost month a go, haven't had an assignment yet, but I call everyday. Janet Velazquez didn't know I was still on the phone and was talking to Gabby, or Maria about me saying he needs to stop calling already, I asked to speak with the manager and they transfer me to Araceli who's a recruiter so I asked to speak with her boss I finally got her on the line and she was so embarrassed for their unprofessionalism , they talked about me and other applicants, they even talked about what made for dinner, and when i said im still on the line, they hung immediately . read more

Toxic work place environment at the agency's office!!! Worst place to look for a job. Ignore your calls, texts, and voicemails. When you do start working it's with company's that treat you like expendable trash.With-a mentality of they fire you and the agency brings in more to work for them. I recommend looking elsewhere. read more

Trash there is better agencies out there that will actually help you you just have to find yourself look at the reviews before you waste your time in apply read more

Once you sign a contract, they no longer give a rats ass about you. I had called countless times to acquire my hours and each time they told me to call back because they were busy. Most unprofessional and ignorant people I have ever had to work with. read more

Multiple positions available read more

Not dependable. I am a perfect candidate and Aracely promised to have me working within a few days. It's been a month and all I've gotten from Elwood staffing is empty promises. She avoids my phone calls rather than putting her face forward and telling me she's incompetent and cannot place me. read more

Seriously look at the stars on this agency, they got one star for A REASON! The "Recruiters" are not professional at all, Elmwood? More like ElmHOOD. Super ghetto staffing. I received a very angry phone call from a random recruiter at elmwood all because my assigned recruiter failed to report a day i missed. After trying to talk for several minutes i asked to speak to a different recruiter because her tone was very aggressive and Phone call wasn't going anywhere. Instead she threatened that i wont get paid because im getting upset. She claims i was terminated but my original recruiter told me to show up the following day? Why did my recruiter act like she never called me and asked why i missed? Why did she act like i didn't already explain the reason? Why didn't my recruiter show her the voicemail i left on her phone regarding why i didn't show up? plus while at work my supervisor never told me to go home and my punch in clock didn't fail to recognize my employee number if in fact i was terminated i wouldn't be able to get through security or let alone punch in! If i Don't get paid for the hours i worked i will definitely seek legal action. LISTEN TO THE REVIEWS AND TAKE YOUR BUSINESS ELSEWHERE NOT WORTH IT, YOU DESERVE BETTER! read more

So unprofessional and rude, starting with a ghetto as receptionist that looks high no wonder she cant do her job right. I supposed to get paid on a Friday they lied to me with a cash card that I could of never access, then when they get my check they mail it, so unnecessary. Now Im unemployed thanks to their 2 day work assignment. read more

I am a Customer Service Manager, so I know the importance of how you treat people. I have called this place 3 times, and gotten 2 different people. The first time I called I was told I had to come down and register. I needed to answer a questionnaire that they'd most likely give me the answers to, so that I get them right. Scary, if I really wasn't knowledgeable or qualified. I called back to ask what the pay scale was before going down to the establishment and I was told by the operator, that I needed to call back and speak to a recruiter, they were busy. I understand this completely, there is no reason for the front desk to answer these types of inquires. I called back in the late afternoon, and requested to speak with a recruiter. I was asked why, so I explained. She told me I needed to come down and register, I advised that I wanted to save us both time, if this wasn't a place that could assist me. She told me that I couldn't speak to a recruiter at the moment, they were busy. The recruiters are allowed to be busy, they should be, it's their job, but if I can't leave a message, nor speak to them, I'm not getting any service. If they're not busy speaking to people like me, then what could they be busy with? It was a brush off at each turn, in calling back, or going in, I don't know that I'd get my question answered. I've decided not to bother, three phone calls is enough for me to stay away! read more
