I found a job that sounded like a good fit for me and applied. A few days later, I was contacted by Laura from Burnett and after an initial phone screening, she agreed I would be a good fit for the job I had applied to as well as another client of hers., and was able to set up interviews for both a few days after I would be arriving in town. I didn't have high hopes because I hadn't worked with a recruiter before, but working with them is the best decision I could have made. I had several other interviews I had set up for myself that week, but none fit as well as the one Laura had set me up for. She was able to fit me in a great job, and gave me some great tips and advice about moving here. Thanks Laura!

For nearly 17 years, I've applied for positions through Burnett Specialists and communicated with…read moreseveral recruiters. I first began applying around 2009 while I was still in college. At that time, I understood when I was told I needed more experience or additional assessments before qualifying for certain positions. Instead of giving up, I took that feedback seriously. Over the years, I earned both my bachelor's and master's degrees, gained experience in state government, higher education, secondary education, and several other professional roles. I continued building my résumé because I believed that eventually I would become the type of candidate they were looking for. Over the past four months, I've applied for numerous positions and reached out to multiple recruiters. Unfortunately, the outcome has remained the same. Whether it was a full-time position or even an internship in my degree field, I was consistently passed over. At first, I was frustrated because I felt I had done everything I was supposed to do to become a stronger candidate. My goal has never been to remain stagnant. I believe in appreciating where you are while continuing to grow professionally and create better opportunities for yourself and your family. Over time, however, my perspective changed. I realized that not every staffing agency is the right fit for every candidate, and that's okay. Sometimes an organization simply isn't the place where your career is meant to take off. If you've had a similar experience, don't view it as a loss. There are many excellent staffing agencies throughout Texas that may be a much better fit for your background and career goals. I've personally had better experiences with PrideStaff and MDR, and there are many other reputable agencies worth considering, including: * Robert Half * Express Employment Professionals * Clayton Services * Murray Resources * Frontline Source Group * AppleOne Employment Services * Snelling Staffing * CornerStone Staffing * The Liberty Group * Link Staffing * AmeriTech Staffing * KP Staffing Many of these agencies are Better Business Bureau accredited or have established reputations in Texas staffing and recruiting. I sincerely wish Burnett Specialists continued success. My experience simply wasn't the right fit, and I hope this review encourages other job seekers not to become discouraged. Sometimes the right opportunity is waiting with a different agency. Toodles.

I've worked for many temp agencies and I have never been treated so well as I have been by both Sinia Gonzalez and Caroline Brown. The times I have called them with questions and/or concerns, they were quick to guide me the best way possible and to handle matters in such a professional manner. I take my hat off to both these ladies for the time they take out of their busy schedules. They have always been quick to handle matters when I call for guidance. They handle every situation in a professional manner and show their concern. They are very sweet ladies and so kind to me, they always turn my frown upside down. :) Thank you so much for always taking care of me. You all are a great team and I enjoy being a part of it! Thank you so much for this opportunity. Linda Zenith

I did my proposal and engagement pictures with them. The setting was the gorgeous view of downtown…read morehouston building lights at night on a rooftop bar in downtown. So I thought pictures shouldn't be hard to get. But none of the pictures we got from them turned out remotely as gorgeous as the ones we took ourselves the next day when we had a small party there. The downtown lights were muted which I'm perplexed about because it's so bright and there's so much of it out there. My other issue is that we specifically asked for him not to be all up in our faces during the proposal to allow for more privacy and a special moment. But he strong-handed us into making a big scene and deal of it and I say that because during the session I said no and yet he did it anyway. It ended up ruining the proposal and I would have expected more from such a highly rated photographer. That is a once in a lifetime thing and he decided he wanted to ruin it.

After passing both courses, she said she was confident I could begin my two day internship (again, unpaid), and then start a job at $13 per hour as a leasing agent. I believe that was about 3 weeks ago, and each time since then when I've inquired she told me either she was waiting to hear back from the apartments and then later it became that "now isn't a good hiring time" for the apartment complexes. Would have been better had she told me all this before I wasted all that time. But, I guess many staffing agencies know people are desperate and are willing to put up with these shenanigans. Recommend applying here if you have previous leasing experience, otherwise it's not worth the effort, IMO.

*** Seems how Page Parkes Agency likes to cover up for corruption and deleted our last review on…read moreanother platform , we're going to double down by reposting it with even more details. The attempts to silence us only prove they have something to hide. *** We are writing this review anonymously on behalf of several industry professionals after further discussion regarding repeated concerns and experiences involving two models from this agency. Because we do not wish to disclose the specific professional environment(s) involved, we will keep certain details private, but we collectively felt it was important to publicly address the grotesque behavior and hygiene concerns we witnessed behind the scenes. Diana Hare-Gantchev and her daughter Emi Gantchev arrived on numerous jobs with a strong and noticeable odor that raised concerns among our team and many others throughout the industry. More alarmingly, both had visible ringworm infections on their chest, arms, and back. Additionally, Emi had severe bodily acne all over her chest, which was very visually unappealing to our clients and sparked multiple complaints. Some wardrobe items ultimately had to be disposed of as a precautionary measure, resulting in financial losses for production. After these matters were discussed among all of us, attention was drawn to an episode of the podcast "Off the Runway" by Pamela Green (available on Spotify), in which Diana openly spoke about infrequent bathing habits involving both herself and her children around the 16:00-19:00 timestamp. This should not be taken lightly, particularly in professional environments involving shared wardrobe, close physical proximity, and client interaction. With Hantavirus and other illnesses continuing to spread, maintaining proper hygiene is important for the safety of staff, clients, and fellow models. Another concern that many of us found incredibly tone deaf was Diana publicly boasting on her profile about receiving $10,000-$20,000 luxury healthcare and longevity treatments when many people are struggling to afford basic necessities, prescriptions, rent, groceries, and even standard medical care. At a time of widespread economic stress, inflation, layoffs, and rising healthcare costs, publicly flaunting extremely expensive wellness treatments came across to many people as deeply out of touch, classist, and lacking awareness of the reality most working people are facing right now. Combined with the repeated hygiene concerns, it created an overall impression that many of us found deeply unprofessional and disconnected from the people around her. Multiple individuals privately discussed how uncomfortable and off-putting this was, especially within environments where other models, stylists, assistants, and creatives are often underpaid and financially struggling. Not only that, but there was repeated behavior we witnessed behind the scenes toward other models. On numerous occasions, we heard Diana openly slandering significantly younger women in the industry who came from less-fortunate backgrounds, making degrading and deeply unprofessional remarks about their appearance, careers, and reputations, while simultaneously using nepotism to prop up her own daughter who, by all regards, benefited from privilege, connections, and opportunities many of these girls never had access to in the first place. What was especially disturbing was hearing her brag about using her connections and "influence" to get certain models blacklisted or pushed out of opportunities. It created an extremely toxic and hostile environment that many people quietly noticed but were afraid to speak about publicly. Furthermore, it must be also be exposed that Diana has leveraged her position as a "modeling coach" to prey upon her underage and younger, vulnerable students and disguising her predatory behavior as "mentorship." When confronted, she systematically destroys the reputations of her young victims, using her industry influence to blacklist and silence them. Compounding this depravity, Diana shamelessly lets Emi, who is only 15, attend modeling jobs where she is seen with other underage girls draped all over older men, with Page Parkes Agency facilitating this disgusting arrangement. Diana also subjects Emi to inappropriate photo shoots--having her pose half-naked in front of older male photographers in ways that no young girl should ever have to be subjected to. The optics are incredibly disturbing, especially as the Epstein Files continue to release and the modeling industry gets caught up in the same web of exploitation. Because of this, we will be including Page Parkes Agency in any future reports and exposés, and they will have to now endure any consequences that may arise. We are escalating this to multiple public platforms and legal authorities where Page Parkes Agency's censorship and cover-up tactics will be rendered completely powerless.

This is by far the best staffing agency with which you can work. If you're in Houston and looking…read morefor a job, you need to call them! My first contact was Amy (sadly she's moved away), who I met at a job fair. I heard back from her the same day and was in to meet with her two days later. She had something temporary for me within a week. And she had interviews set up for temp-to-hire positions not long afterward. After Amy left, I started working more closely with Lindsey. She set me up with a great temporary position. The supervisor there stopped his interviews for the position after a few days of me being on site. I then went temp-to-hire and when the time came, Lindsey stayed on him about getting me a permanent offer. I worked for that company for two years, with a promotion. I have nothing bad to say about this organization. From receptionist, to payroll manager, to recruiters, this company to stocked with highly trained individuals who truly care about their clients- both companies and job seekers.
