First off, these guys deserve a -5 five star. Horrible experience…read more NOTE: This was my experience with two individuals. I understand others may have had great experiences and that is fantastic. I just happen to get the short end of the stick this time around. One fine Tuesday morning, I am sitting at home and I receive a phone call from one Selene Mora of Office Team. She states that she has a couple of jobs I would be interested in, we talked and I was interested. She then sends me an email, and I send her my resume in an email. The next day, Wednesday, I receive a few calls from her setting up two interviews the following day, Thursday. The first is a phone interview in the morning and the second is an in person interview in the afternoon. In my phone interview, I was asked to tell of a time that I negotiated. I was puzzled as I have never done this. Then they asked me if I was still employed at my most recent job, and I said no. They said that on my resume that I still worked there. This is where I got a hint that my resume had been altered. So I go to my next interview and since it is in person, the interviewer usually has the resume in front of them. I glanced over at it and saw that it had been drastically altered. Later that evening I send an email to Selene asking to see the resume she sent to the two companies. I received it the next morning and I was livid. Without my permission, she added stuff that I never did on my resume and took a few things off. She lied to the employers about who I was. Even though she tried to make me look good, she did so by flat out lying and that is unethical. I confronted her and she tried to justify her actions. I told her she was lying and that she was wrong to do this. I then spoke to Juliana Bravo and explained the situation. She was understanding and stated that she will make sure that it will never happen again. I told her that I wanted my real resume sent to the employers and explain the problem. She said to send her my resume and I did. I have never heard back from them. Not even a check-up or status update on my interviews. Not even a call to tell me I didn't get the jobs. Nothing. This was about a month ago. Recruiters: do not lie. That is just wrong and dumb. Be honest and work with your candidates to make their resume better but don't lie. Job seekers: when dealing with a staffing agency, just to be safe, ask to see the resume they send out. And when you go into the interview, ask to see the resume they received to make sure you are being portrayed in the right light. Just avoid this location and people. Especially Selene. I hope she learns her lesson and grows but for the time being I would not deal with her.

I was placed at a job through West Valley and long story short, developed a disability requiring…read moresome relatively minor accommodations. Mostly just some ergonomic changes to my work area at the client site. Told my on-site manager who promptly ignored my request for the next month or so, during which time things got even worse and I made a much more direct request for accommodations. The client then very swiftly fired me for making that request and West Valley has gone so far as to lie under oath in an effort to protect their client. They lied about the position I was hired for, they lied about my informing them of my need for accommodations in the workplace, and probably more. The fact that they're so willing to fall on their sword for their client tells me that this is not an isolated incident. They likely are known in the business world for helping shady companies get away with labor regulation violations and if they turn on one client then all the rest will flee and they'll be out of business.

But I don't get any PTO, sick hrs, borrowing pto, holidays, bonuses ( that I rightfully earn ) But yet they tell you 6 or so months and work hard they'll hire you. Bullshit!! I have a family and kids and 2 years of busting my ass and still a contractor. West valley staffing has done nothing but fed me phony lies and fakeness just to get by. I've even been retaliated against by them. Trying to give me write ups out of no where. Because rightfully requesting my pay that was late. Jessica our on site rep is pointless! Should not be working a position that employees (human lives ) be relying on. And I'm still waiting on confirmation from my sick hours I requested to be added over a week ago. STILL WAITING. Even after contacting payroll, managers etc.

In my quest to get back onto the market and into a full-time career, I marketed myself to…read morepractically every placement agency in the South Bay and Peninsula. Grant it I did a 360 switch from almost 10 years of banking to Information Technology, I'm in my element working with computers while providing exemplary customer service. Just as I contracted for Yahoo and Xilinx with no hopes of going full-time permanent, I was contacted by Sharon, a technical recruiter for Taos. My recruiter found me on Dice.com and I'm glad she did. As soon as we spoke on the phone and she emailed me a comprehensive list of benefits and perks, I was hooked. With contracting, you get paid for the hours you work. Holidays, Time off and Vacation equals no pay. With Taos' plan, you get a full boat of paid time off, holidays paid, insurance benefits with very minimal premiums, eligibility for 401K, continuos mentoring, and reimbursement for continued education. Sharon was great. She contacted me, we met in person to talk about anything and everything under the sun, and she was persistent to get me in front of her clients. Long story short, I received an offer in a matter of days and accepted a full-time salaried position as a no-brainer. I can definitely see myself growing with both Taos and the company I'm consulting for. I can't wait to start a new chapter in my life with a long term company. Monday July 1 marks the beginning. If you're seeking a long term career with a creative and different type of placement agency, give Taos a call and ask for Sharon. Your call might be life changing!

AVOID THIS COMPANY! I had such a negative experience with this company that I feel compelled to…read morelet everyone know. When I was up for a potential job with a major tech giant in the Silicon Valley, I had to provide the days and time frames (AM or PM) I was available for TAOS for WebEx initial screening meetings for TAOS to vet me and my skills. I gave them the days/times I was available by web, but I also kept pressing for a face-to-face interview so I could actually meet the TAOS liaison/account rep that I would be working for. We had two WebEx meetings, which went well. TAOS was interested in moving further, but I wanted to meet face to face with the liaison/account rep first, before moving further. Their problem was the TAOS liaison/account rep was apparently so busy (big deal, who is not busy!?) it was tough for her to meet with me face to face. But I kept pressing for a face to face. Well, TAOS took my information and, of course, scheduled a day/time frame on the exact day/time frame I was NOT available. When I pointed out their mistake, they informed me at that time they would not change the day/time and they had other job candidates that were available for that face-to-face interview with the TAOS liaison/account rep. So it follows that this entire process, the poor attention to detail by TAOS reps, and the unprofessional attitude, in particular, of the liaison/account rep exhorts me to tell everyone to avoid this company. I would look somewhere else, if you want to work with detail-oriented professional IT professionals. Avoid TAOS!

And then semi-salvation comes in the form of Select Staffing and, in my case, Yelp's very own Drunk Lover, Ms. Eryka V. Wait--you thought she was kidding on her profile about finding you a job? Nope. She wasn't. There have been a couple things that Eryka has tried to hook up for me (ha!), but the hookup via Select has, thus far, been successful. That's a 50% success rate, baby--and I'll take it! While nobody really actively seeks to have temp jobs (or maybe some people do and I'm just really out of the loop? it's possible), if you have to have one, it's nice to work through a company staffed by friendly people who seem to actually want to help you out. The job Eryka got for me, while certainly a temp position, is SOMETHING--and it's not a bad deal at all. Full-time, sufficient wages for the position, nice coworkers. Whether you're a lowly peon like me ("capable but inexperienced" is how I describe myself professionally...in some other ways as well, but we don't have to get into that here ;) or a bigshot financial analyst capable of bringing in a bill per hour, Select Staffing has a position suited to you--and Select's staff will work to get you into a position. You hold up your end of the deal, they'll end up theirs. I have limited experience with temp agencies, to be sure, but the agency I worked for in late 2008/early 2009 was really awful, sketchy and unprofessional. I don't get that vibe from Select--at all. Benefits are offered after your first 40 hours are worked, pay is weekly, all that good stuff. And, really, it beats the hell out of being unemployed. So, if you're poor and depressed like I was, have Eryka find you a job. Just don't screw it up, or she'll shank you*. (* Okay, she won't shank you. I made that up. But it's a lot cooler to think that she would shank someone for screwing up on the job...)
