First time using a recruiter, coming off of a pretty terrible experience (job I signed up for was…read moreNOT the job I ended up doing, no support, no training). I was working with Kelsey, who LISTENED when I explained what I was looking for - collaborative, lateral structure, training and commitment to mentorship, and most of all CLIENTS TREATED AS HUMANS, not as paychecks. Within a day, she'd delivered a list of possibilities to me, helped me pare down my resume, and gave me guidance on how to move forward with my top choice. Three weeks of "job searching" and I've got an offer. It would've been ONE week if I'd just gone to Boly:Welch in the first place. 10/10, no notes.

She was also able to schedule everything within my tight schedule, which I am so thankful for!

I worked on assignment with Adecco for over 2 years and I must say it was an amazing experience…read more Being able to communicate with individuals in a staffing company who make you feel like a person and not like a number was very impressive to me. Brook Poggi, is an Amazing & Professional Recruiter who helped me to soar in my career path. She reviewed my resume and decided it was time for me to advance to the next level. Landing me an Awesome opportunity that has been a benefit to me ever since. It was (what I like to say) a career shift that caused me to utilize and advance my current skills, while learning other skills to help me better perform my duties.

I've bee through this "game" before and have met so many recruiters that take your resume, give you a cursory interview, never to be heard from again. It's happened to me with several recruiters and firms here in the Portland area. It wasn't like that with P+L. The team with P+L (including Dan Olchowy - definitely a star!) stuck with me, found me roles where they could, and even when I found a job with a different firm, they were so gracious with me, wishing me luck, asking if it was okay if we maintained contact, and to keep them in mind for other colleagues. It's been a little over a year since I worked with them, they still reach out to me, and I have to commend them for their professionalism and competence. And the fact that when they say they'll call you back, they actually DO call you back.

While trying to find a good company fit for me and my skills (Controller Level for small…read morebusinesses), I signed up with SO many recruiters and recruiting companies here in Portland. Only three agencies actually called me back and found work for me - and Parker + Lynch was the best by FAR. Their communication, their advice to me when I interviewed, especially regarding my interview style, it was all ON POINT, direct and very helpful. I cannot say enough about Parker + Lynch - everyone there is just fantastic. Cooperate, work hard, and communicate - simple things that all business people need to do and Parker + Lynch sets the standard. I'm very grateful for their help. I am now doing a very challenging and rewarding job combining all of my favorite skills, not just straight-up accounting, and I would never have found this place without Parker + Lynch.

Domonique Gratteri in particular has been awesome. I cannot say enough good about her. She had placed me at Nike and Blount for temp positions and both experiences were great! Domonique follows up with me after each interview and quickly lets me know if I am hired on. She is upfront about each role and checks in on how I am doing. Domonique is on top of it, never have I been unemployed long because she always finds something for me. She truly listens to what I want. She has been a life-saver! If you are looking for a staffing agency and recruiter, go to Ajilon and request for Domonique!

Compared to others I've been to, Ajilon is very organized, and I feel confident that they are among the top temporary agencies. They have financial and office jobs. Everyone there is nice, and Katie is beyond amazing, and always answers my inquiries quickly. She found me my dream job after only a week, even if it was a 6-month temporary position. I had no idea I would like administrative work with the public, but I loved it. I would pay them to do that job. Now I know where I want to end up in life, and I don't think you can beat finding out what you want to do. A month after that job ended, she had two interviews for me, and then placed me in another good temporary position. I'm not sure how to review a temp agency, but I would definitely recommend it. I have never had a bad experience here, and have always felt like they were on my side. In this economy, a job searcher needs everyone on their side that they can get.

My family had a deeply disappointing and concerning experience with this nanny agency. The first…read morenanny they placed with us abruptly stopped showing up--no call, no explanation, just vanished, leaving me without childcare. Despite this rocky start, I gave the agency another chance and paid a $750 placement fee for a second nanny through Mersades' business. That nanny worked with our family for six months before I had to let her go due to serious safety concerns. She left my youngest daughter alone at the park with only her 10-year-old sibling, while she went to sit in her car in the parking lot. A stranger--thankfully--found my daughter and brought her to the nanny, asking if she even knew her. Regrettably, I gave her another chance. On a separate occasion, she left both my daughters in a hot car for nearly an hour with no air-conditioning while she went shopping in Northeast Portland. As if that weren't enough, I recently learned that this same nanny committed fraud by forging my signature on a letter to enroll her stepson in our school district without my knowledge or permission. This agency has shown an alarming lack of judgment in vetting their caregivers, and I cannot recommend them to any family looking for safe, reliable childcare. Families deserve better. My husband and I have tried calling to tell Mersades about our experience, but she refuses to call us back.
