So far so good. Although this review is of Kelly Services in general and not just this branch. I'm…read morenot long registered with this Victoria branch and they've come up with a six week corporate reception/switchboard temporary job with a better rate of pay than I get with other agencies. I find their staff friendly and they sent me a birthday card which I thought was a nice touch. Way back in 1996/97 they had an office in Kingsway and they found me a nice part-time job at Parcelforce for about 4 months. They stuck with me even though I didn't complete an assignment once. Their old Oxford Street branch were also pro-active in finding me an administrative permanent job years ago which I stayed with for about 10 months (so they would have got their fees). Yes, so far I like Kelly Services Victoria branch and I'll see how it goes.

Office Angels. Yes, an embarrassing name for a temp agency, but a very good temp agency…read morenevertheless. I signed up with Office Angels immediately upon arrival in London, and was temping a few days later. I told Office Angels that my preference was to work with NGOs, and, out of the 3 longer assignments they found me, two were with non-profits. The third was with a Japanese pharmaceutical company that had a lot of free lunches, so the trade off was worth it. I was literally not out of work a day when I lived in London--Office Angels kept me as busy as I wanted! They also had regular free lunches for their temps, which were a nice gesture. Most of the women that worked there also had extremely eccentric hair.

My experience with Blue Arrow goes a little something like this:…read more 1. Sign up and get a shift that starts in an hour somewhere across town, fine. 2. Work 15 hours in 2 days and expect some form of remuneration, normal. 3. Get paid 24 pounds for my troubles (somewhat less than expected shall we say) only to find out that the person who is supposed to sign my wages off has left the company. Not ideal. 4. Spend a lot of time hanging around waiting for shifts at the Chelsea Flower Show not being paid. Less than impressed. 5. When shifts appear, they do not usually specify any kind of finish time, meaning that it is impossible to plan your time in any way. Marvellous. 6. Show up on time, then get sent straight home as they have no more shifts, even though they knew this would happen late the night before. Tears and tantrums ensued. To summarise, do not bother.

What a wonderful agency. The staff are warm, friendly and very informative. I've worked with many…read moreagencies recruiting staff and burlington are exceptional. I called initially to find a nanny. I mentioned that I was also looking for a chef and a butler. The consultant managed to find all three for me in less than two weeks. Can't recommend enough
