This is one of the gems. They treat you with utmost respect and don't steer you into a job you…read morewon't like. Every time I've spoken to one of their recruiters I've they have directed me to a role that suits me and is actually perm or temp to perm.

I can not rave enough about my partnership with MPG. In addition to being the sweetest people on…read moreearth, they also value your time and experience. It was so refreshing to have people in your corner who are dedicated to getting you placed in a role. Ellie is an absolute sweetheart and she and Kelly worked around the clock to get me into a position. I'm genuinely a little sad that I won't get my daily (yes, you read that correctly DAILY) updates from my girls at Manning. Thank you so much to the Manning team! Work with them, you will not regret it!

Manning was my first experience ever in working with a recruiting agency and they were awesome…read more Transitioning from one career into another can be daunting, but having Manning as a support group made things a little easier. They found me a nice, temporary position to build up my skills and continued to reach out to me with offers and positions they felt I was qualified for. I really appreciated how responsive they were. In the end, I found a permanent position on my own, but I was so happy that Manning was there to give me options along the way!

Had a great experience with Erica last fall. She really listened to my needs and found a few roles…read morethat met my expectations! She also didn't restrict the options to what I specifically asked for, but also included roles she thought I'd succeed at - really expanded my horizons! She even touched base with me a few times during her time off. I ended up at a company I can (for the first time) say I love and I appreciated Erica's partnership and advocacy every step of the way. She has also done a great job following up with me to make sure I'm happy with the role and offering her assistance if there was anything else I needed. Beacon Hill sounds like a great place to work - I heard coworkers cheering in the background once for a coworker who completed a milestone! They also have an annual gratitude week and Erica advocated for a charity where I volunteer, and won them a big donation!!!

Hmm. Randstad found…read moreme a decent, if low paying job the first time around, but they kind of left me high and dry on the next gig. Things were going fairly well at the second company where Randstad placed me, until one day my boss OD'd on his Crazy Flakes and became domineering and abusive. It was really, really bad. Like something snapped. I called Randstad, asking them to move me immediately. My rep wasn't having it. "Why don't you just go back in and apologize?" she suggested meekly. "What?" I sputtered. "I haven't done anything wrong! My boss is psycho! I saw his head spin around 360 degrees!" (It could happen.) "Sometimes we have to do unpleasant things to placate people." "I don't want to placate him. I WANT TO LEAVE." In the end, she insisted I apologize and refused to place me elsewhere. I didn't last very long with that job, and I certainly left Randstad right after. One star for finding me the first job. Another star for leaving me with a bizarre story to tell on Yelp.

I initially did a contract through a company buy out and Randstad was the temp agency. Everything…read morestarted out great. When the client unexpectedly ended the contract, Randstad made promises of getting back to work but NO follow up what's so ever.

I have received excellent ongoing training from a team that has been successfully leading the company for over 15 years. The executives at this company generally want you to learn and succeed. Whether you're a recent college graduate looking to break into the sales/recruiting world or a Senior Recruiter looking for a new company, CRI will provide you with an opportunity to work freely and give you the skills to grow professionally. I would highly recommend anyone in the business or interested in Recruiting to apply for a position with the company.

You DO know, fellow Yelper, that a temp agency is really about the impression YOU make (over the…read morephone, then in person) with the staff at the agency, right? I chose this location after bumping into a pal who was on a long term assignment that he loved. He spoke highly of the company and he really liked his recruiter. I called up, and made an appointment to see her. She WAS indeed, really cool. After about 4 days, she called to send me to interview with a company. I started the next day, and have been on the assignment for over 8 months now. Everything is centralized and automated with Office Team. I've never had a pay issue, never had ANY issues actually, and I've only been to the office that first time. Perfect! Staff is super responsive to email and phone calls, with follow-up in less than 2 hours. If you go, ask to see Jessica or Allison- they will get you on a good, solid assignment with a reputable company. ***YELP TIP: you really NEED direct deposit BEFORE you start working. if you do a paper check, it has to be processed out of Yugoslavia, and it takes about 3 weeks (no joke) for you to get your first check. it's painful.

So this is the THIRD temp agency I have worked with during my lifetime. So I already know that you…read morehave to dress in business professional attire, have an upbeat can-do attitude, and that the relationship between you and the company is a collaboration (you don't sit around and wait to be called, you check in weekly to see what positions have opened up). With that said...this place was alright. My initial interview was interesting to say the least. The gentleman/recruiter named Gus P. who spoke with me told me he had the perfect job lined up for me. He told me that based on my resume and phone screen I would have the job-he gave me a start date, I just had to come in and fill out paperwork. When I arrived he stepped into the reception area and called my name (which is an Irish name-I'm not Irish though), then approached a Caucasian woman and shook her hand. I said "no I'm _________". He looked me up and down with disgust and told me to follow him. Then he told me that I was not a good match for the job and that he would look for other work for me...after already telling me I had the job and had given me a start date. He never called me back. I called the office weekly. Three weeks later a different recruiter called me Valerie C. I told her that I only wanted temp to perm work. I guess I let her convince me to take a temp job because I was desperate for work. The company I worked for was amazing. Although they never told me when my last day was, just that they weren't going to keep me. I advised my new recruiter of this because I wanted to find a new job ASAP. She never replied. I started working with a new agency and found placement. I informed her of that via phone and e-mail...no response. They only got 2 stars because the job I got was great and I made great contacts there. Plus the payroll department is amazing. You get paid direct deposit the same week you start working. Oh and no one helped me with my resume. The new temp agency gave me great feedback on it, and now it looks even better. That company is Hollister. I am going to give them a few more weeks to see how they do before leaving them a review.
