I was dissatisfied w/my previous temp agency. And the job I was on cut hours from 40 to 32. And…read moregave us Friday off. So early Friday I tried Manpower temp agency. And I'm glad I did! Manpower got me in faster than a direct hire!! I arrived early with my banking info, identification, and previous work history information. I signed up on there computer system and everyone was eager to answer my many questions. Everyone was so patient and kind to me. After signing up and getting into the Manpower system I was asked what type of job I wanted. After a discussion I decided. A few hours later I got a call & got job and the shift I wanted!! Followed up by email which was nice. Everything I needed to know was right there. I got a job the same day I applied!!! Epic!!!! And I have been excelling ever since!! Better pay, room for advancement, more hours worked, and Manpower staff has my back!! Manpower also has training available!! Huge bonus!!

After a 10 minute interview, I was directed to go online and finish my resume. But I couldn't connect with their website, something to do with the internet in my neck of the woods i guess. I drove over to a public library and finished my account, I even applied for a local job. However, when I called to ask about the job I was told they would call me back. They never did. When I called back the next day, I was told my resume hadn't even been received. In fact, my entire account was just not there?

Manpower is supposed to be a national or even international job agency, but I think they need to update their infrastructure. Coming in for a 10 minute interview and then repeating it all over again online seems wasteful to me. But the bigger problem was their many computer glitches. When I offered to email my resume or send them over to LinkedIn.com, they refused. It had to be by their book. But what do you do when you make an account with them, confirm that account and then a few days later it evaporated mysteriously?
