The greatest choice I've made! As a female, joining the Army seemed like a difficult task. The Army…read morerecruiting stations and other branches of the military I called just seemed to make everything sound so complex. Finally I called the Powers Army recruiting station in Colorado Springs and my recruiter knew every step that needed to be taken and made every task direct and simple. As a Future Soldier they also helped me prepare for army life by enrolling me in a physical fitness program with LifeQuest Transitions so I could get physically fit before I went to training. During that program they taught us some of the physical demands that the military expected of us as well as some of the mental ones. My goal was to become the best active duty soldier I could be so I attended every session possible and it really paid off. My college gave me rank but my recruiter helped create me into an American soldier. So whether you are looking to go Army, Navy Air force, Marines, Reserve, National Guard or Coast Guard, talk to the guys at Powers recruiting office first. You might find what they have to say more appealing. They are clearly professionals and I highly recommend them!

If I could give no stars I would. Very unprofessional and rude. Just finished an interview with…read morethem and only two hours later I got a vague message that they no longer have any positions to move forward to even though before this message when I personally went to their office they have explained they have many positions available. After the message I called to kindly and professionally ask for the reason of the message and why have the interview. The woman that answered the phone very rudely and unprofessionally gave an irrational sigh and hung up. I thought maybe the phone call was dropped because of my location has bad service I called back and the same person picked up again after requiring the message I have received just two hours after my interview they have said that they no longer have any positions available and it would takes months/weeks/ years ( her words ) and was very agitated because of her tone and mannerisms she has displayed. Before all this I did call in advance about requires of the agency before even going in person to drop off my resume. As a staff agency dealing with people that are using every resource they can think of to help require employment. The people you have employed should learn to keep every interaction, it could be in person or over the phone professional. Having a personal judgment reaction regardless is not only very unprofessional and uncalled for but as well shows the lack of proper communication skills being displayed. Remember everyone poop stinks including your own Elwood staffing.

I would recommend using someone else to find employment. Girls in the office were not interested in…read morelistening to applicants and what they need in employment. Sent me to jobs across town when I told them that wouldn't be possible. Didn't find me jobs even remotely in my field, and always for considerably less pay than what was requested. Very condescending and rude when contacted about concerns. Do yourself a favor and find someone that will work with you to find employment, not talk down to you and send you to places you've told them that weren't a good fit, especially when they don't offer anything for weeks at a time.

This hard because you hate to say such negative things about people in your community. But what…read morehappened to me was just a shame. I was sent a survey, which I filled out. My experience with surveys can be will this be seen by a person or just an AI thing. So, I added some colorful language to my survey answers, turns out it was actually read by the owner Pamela Fletcher, the new owner and my recruiter Eshe John. The review was answered by phone calls, text and emails. When I text the owner back I explained why I was upset. That's as far as it went. No call back, text back or email. What I was upset about was the company that I was sent to. This place was terrible and had such a crazy high employee turnover rate. To this day Express Employment Professionals has not said one word to me about any of this. I now have to find another position on my own. I really feel you can do much better than Express Employment Professionals. This is a disappointment because you are always better networking through professionals when looking for work. When you are contacted by your recruiter you expect to be sent to places that are the quality of who you are. I was told by Eshe that this customer was not vetted thoroughly by Express Employment Professionals. I guess I know what I mean to this company. I think from this point on I will try the competition or just continue to do my own work. Fortunately, I am in a career field that tends to be easy to find work in, using a recruiter just saves me time when learning about the company.

They are friendly enough but when problems arise they are difficult to contact.

I would recommend express in general just not this location.

They did send me to a job, but at the job they harassed me and didn't give me a chance. The…read moreharassment was so bad, human resources gathered everyone together for a meeting about sexual harassment. Later I was let go. The agency sent me to a second job, but it ended abruptly. They said I was rude and uncorporative. I did everything they asked and was friendly even though they were rude and unprofessional. They would laugh and snicker at me and gave the supervisor untrue reports about my performance. Express didn't back me up or investigate. I'm writing this so no one else goes through the same thing.
