I would not recommend this company. Unless you want to waste your precious time, do not associate with this company. They reach out to me for an interview and told me that they have lots of opportunities. And then after that, radio silence. I have followed up a few times with the recruiter, Kaitlin, and have never gotten a response back. Very unprofessional. If you want to do better, then hire better staff. Don't just virtue signal on yelp. read more

Samantha has been my recruiter since day one. We scheduled an interview in her office about my career goals and what I am looking for in a company. The preliminary interview is great as it's semi-casual and lets the recruiter know more about you. From there, Samantha took what I wanted and soared! She was SO quick to find me opportunities, and what's even better is she genuinely listens to you. Every job position that is offered IS optional and you are in no way obligated to say, "yes" to every opportunity. Working with Samantha was a pleasant experience and the company they linked me with has been EVERYTHING I wanted! However, there was an incident when their Sr Staffing Manager, Jessica, followed up via email to see how I was doing. I had informed her of an employee, who they assigned as my approver, was treating me like her personal assistant and that prevented me from completing my actual job. She was NOT my manager, but due to circumstances, was a temporary hold until my manager was available. It was getting to a point where it felt like she was bullying me, and if I didn't do what she asked, she would hold that over my head and threaten me. When I had informed Jessica, it had taken over a week and half before they got back to me! & the only reason why they got back to me was because I sent 2 emails and had called multiple times, and eventually left a voicemail. In addition, when I told her about the situation, she made me feel as if I was making a bigger deal out of it than it was... The plan and execution was great with Samantha, the follow-up, not so much. read more

RUN! Do not work for this agency. They don't have good jobs and they sometimes pay you late. They were not understanding of my health because I quit without giving a two week notice. They only care about the clients which is the companies that they work with. If you died they would be the type to call to see if you are still coming to work that day... that's how bad it is. Just don't apply here they suck and they make you stressed out read more

I worked with Damien Richburg at Robert Half. I had reached out to him when I was in Houston, and looking to relocate to Austin. Damien is a very attentive, engaged and pro-active recruiter and he did a great job of following up with me, and putting me in the best possible position to interview well and make a great impact on prospective employers. Though we were unable to seal the deal, I really enjoyed working with him. He gives you the right advice and tries his best to find the right fit for you. read more

I've worked with staffing agencies in the past and always had great results finding employment, however Robert Half in Austin doesn't seem to work and always out of the office. I've submitted my resume and left three voicemails for their staff only to not get a call back. I understand people get busy but after three attempts I figure I'll move on and advise others to do the same. read more

What they say about this agency is true. My LinkedIn says I'm open to new opportunities as far as discussions. The recruiter found me. Messaged me. We agreed to a time to discuss his role. He was 5 minutes late calling. We had a great conversation even though it was a tad rushed. The recruiter scheduled a FaceTime meeting with me at 5pm on a Friday, the next day. I already had plans but I pushed them back. Guess who waited and waited to not be contacted? Me. Now it's Tuesday and nothing. Save your time and if this agency contacts you, steer clear. Their communication with regards to following up is terrible. If I had been contacted to explain why the time was missed or rescheduled, this review wouldn't exist. Highly unprofessional. read more

When relocating to Austin, Stephen Clements and Damien Richburg at Robert Half were quintessential partners in making this move a reality by pairing me with an accounting job that matched my unique skillset and interests. Stephen helped my transition go smoothly by keeping me in the loop with each update, even when it meant working outside of regular hours in order to accommodate my schedule. I appreciated his transparency during the process, and was comforted knowing that he was on top of each new development. Stephen was able to translate my career goals into substantive traits and through their expertise, I was guided to a job in an industry I was not previously familiar with, and may not have pursued without their recommendation. Their valuable guidance and insight gave me a leg up in considering this unique opportunity, which ended up being a perfect fit! read more

If you ever find yourself needing temp work, or possibly a contract position, don't ever use Office Team. When I first moved to Austin I was out of work, and thought I would try this place out while I was in between jobs. After my first visit I was positive that I would be working within a week......... wrong. I never heard from them after my first visit, I just fell through the cracks of their disorganized business. When I called to ask why I hadn't heard back on any positions, they told me that they couldn't get a hold of my references. After a call to my references I was informed that they never called them. Hmmmmmm, no wonder! Each time I called I had to wait for the newest employee (they seem to have more turnover here than a McDonald's) to get familiar with my file. Eventually, I just stopped calling. To this day I have never received a call, or email from Office Team. Its not because I am unskilled, or don't meet an qualifications, its because they are unprofessional. I sometimes wish Yelp had a zero star rating. If you find yourself needing a temp or contract job then good luck, because Austin does not have any good services.... but Office Team is one of the worst. read more

Damien and the team at Robert Half have been knowledgeable, diligent, patient and understanding as a strong recruiting partner for our company. Compared to other recruiting agencies we have worked with, Robert Half had the most robust pipeline of qualified candidates and their assessment of candidates well aligned with our expectations and core values. We would highly recommend Robert Half as your recruiting partner. read more

I have worked with a handful of recruiters now in a couple states and Damien was hands down the best. I really felt valued by him. He makes an effort to touch base and follow up on every level. He gave great interviewing tips and was always a professional. I highly recommend him if you need to find an accounting or finance job in the area! read more

Stacy Snider was my personal miracle worker! She is the recruiting manager that helped me find my job when I moved to Austin. I was living in Reno, and decided to move to Austin. I applied for a job through Robert Half and no more than one day later, Stacy contacted me! By the next day, I had my first Skype interview with her, and two days later, I had my first job interview! She worked so quickly and was very attentive. The day I arrived in Austin, she had an interview set up for me, and I found out I received a job offer THE SAME DAY! I hadn't even been in Austin 2 hours and already had a job. It was amazing. I love the place that Stacy helped me find. She was also extremely helpful in other areas. She gave me tips on where I should and shouldn't live, good places to eat, and fun things to do. I had never been to Austin before I moved so she really helped me find my way around. 100% recommend asking for her on your next job search! This company left me with zero concerns during my job search. read more

I recently relocated from New Jersey to Austin, TX and working with Damien at Robert Half really eased my stress with the job transition and finding a company that is a good fit for my personality and skill set. He took the time to understand my experiences and pair me for interviews at great companies looking for what I am qualified for. I landed a great job and I am grateful for the hard work Damien put in to get me where I am and am very happy with the end result. read more

From the start, the people at Robert Half were not only kind, but helpful, professional, calming, and really took my best interests to heart. I just cannot say enough about how hard these people work and how greatful I am! Thank you guys for all your efforts, and I cant wait to make you proud with my new permanent position!! read more

Julie Lake Adams was instrumental in helping me find a career (switch) in my desired industry that best matched my skills and desire for growth in that particular field. The timelines were tight, and she kept in touch via phone/email and text to get me scheduled for my interviews - often the very next morning. Thank you so much for helping me make my transition from a great job, into the perfect job, a reality. I highly recommend Julie Lake Adams at Robert Half! read more

I'd say the biggest problem with expecting work from an OfficeTeam in Austin is that you're looking for office/admin in a techie town. However, sadly, that's not the case. These people refused to call the 6 references I gave them (I know because after a month of calling OT, I gave up and called my references to ask them) and then freudian slipped that they weren't even paying attention during the interview process! Now, I'm used to dealing with bad customer service from temp agencies since I used to temp in New York, but not using your own company as a reference? That's low. Since "temp agencies are not examples of relevant experience" (mind you, you're applying at a temp agency and are told this), OfficeTeam refuses to acknowledge OfficeTeam, you're left with 11 other agencies in a town with zero work. I waited a year and waded through minimum wage jobs and awful stints at hotels and called them back to set up an interview, this time as a new person since they'd obviously forgotten about me. However, they referred me to the same person who refused to give me work and, this time, she demanded 6-9 outstanding recent references. Ask yourself this: if you have 9 outstanding references, do you really need work or money? Better yet, if you have that many references in a recent time period, do you expect anyone to be confident about your ability to stay at one job for a long time. Granted, in Austin, if you don't want to be buried without ceremony in the world's most expensive shanty town, getting 10 minimum wage jobs in a year is your only option, but eventually you realize how useless and degrading this whole process is and you flip off the OfficeTeam main building on your way to moving out of this town for good. People like this who refuse you the work you need are the no. 1 reason you should never look back, but in a town with nothing but useless agencies, a rude, incompetent staff makes OfficeTeam the worst one by far. read more

My only regret regarding this review is that I can't rate it a 0. The company found me a temp to perm position quickly, thus we both started making money within a week. Problem is, I made it very clear that I wanted temp to perm, as I need benefits. When it turned out the position was not in fact temp to perm, but temp, they refused to look for a temp to perm, which is what I was initially clear about. I was clear about this for a reason - I was making almost as much on unemployment as the new position was paying me. Thus I could have sat there and did nothing, and had the same check. My purpose in finding employment was not for the check, but for the future. If there was no future there, I needed to find a place that would have one. Nonetheless, I stuck it out at the employer hoping for the best. Several months later, the company decided to lay off all of their employees including myself and move the positions out of state. Knowing this, I contacted the agency again, and was stonewalled AGAIN - they won't look until my assignment is over. OR, I can put in a weeks notice and they'll look. of course, if I put in notice, and they don't find anything, then I can't even file for unemployment. I explained that my current employer, if it were there choice, they'd lay us off now. they were giving some advanced notice as courtesy. Nothing - no cooperation. Fast forward - my assignment ends on a Friday. They send me to an interview on Monday. During the interview, I ask the new employer what their intent is with the temp to perm position, as I don't want to go through what I went through again, and also wanted to see if the agency was lying to me. Logical, right? After the interview, they contact officeteam, ask them about my last assignment, and inform them of my questions regarding the temp to perm status of the position. Office team then calls me and tells me that they're not going to look for positions for me, and i'm not a good "fit" for them. After making them a TON of money over the year, they basically fired me because I asked the employer about their intent to hire. Officeteam is a joke. Their internal employees changed completely 3 times in the past 12 months - I see why. They have made it clear to me that they have no intention on being honest with their employees, and actually filling the employees needs. I don't know if this is the company as a whole, or their lack of proper guidance locally, but the Austin office location is to be avoided at all costs. You're much better off going to Volt, Express, or any other agency out there. There's good reason that every one of their reviews here are 1 star. read more

Don't waste your time with this crappy agency. They low ball you in pay. They don't care how much you make and give you what's left over. The company that held/bought my contract reneged on their part of the deal and fired me 2 weeks before Christmas and Robert Half DID NOTHING to help me get a job. When I asked why they fired me. Nada! Not even a "Go Fuck Yourself or He sucks and is a bad employee"! Nothing! read more

Damien is pretty awesome. Once I brought the position to RH, they had interviews lined up a week later and an offer was made a week after that. He was very organized, responsive (including late nights), & fair. I've had success with RH in the past. I look forward to working with Damien again. read more

Grace McCoy was amazing!!! She really listened to what I was looking for and found me a job that was a perfect fit for me. Beyond that, she was more bold in the salary negotiations than I would have been on my own and I ended up getting the salary I actually wanted instead of what I was willing to settle for. I can't recommend working with her enough. read more

To begin with, OfficeTeam is no longer conveniently located in Downtown Austin. It is located very far to the north, almost to Cedar Park. There is so much to write about OfficeTeam, all of which is negative. I thought it would be best to let folks looking for work to NEVER use this agency. Like the other reviews stated, you will NOT be put into an admin spot (even though they post lots of open admin positions). You will be stuck in a call center making sales calls, but not making any commission from the calls. Don't fall into their trap! The OfficeTeam staff has changed 3 times since 2/10, but they fail to notify you about that. So, again, just like the other reviews the staff has no idea who you are. They are also quite rude, very incompetent, and ignore you almost completely unless they receive a blitzkrieg-style bombarding of calls & emails. Simply do yourself a favor and DO NOT EVEN BOTHER using this supposed staffing agency. You can find a job faster, and one that you will actually want, on your own. If there was a negative rating, I'd have given that. read more

I can't even find the words to describe Meredith Parker (my recruiter). This woman is beyond AMAZING!!! I was interested in relocating to the Austin/Round Rock area, so I started looking one day for jobs and literally a couple of days later, I was doing a Skype interview with Meredith. I am a recent Accounting graduate, with little experience working in the Accounting field (less than 1 year). There was a client that Meredith was working with who needed an Accounting clerk with 3-5 years of experience. Meredith assured me that she would do everything that she possibly could to get me in front of this client, even though I didn't have all of the experience they were looking for. Meredith sent me two Accounting skills assessments to take; being that I was an honor graduate from my college, she knew that I knew accounting, but she wanted to prove this to her client. So basically, she let them know that, though I didn't have all the experience that they were looking for, I DID have all of the knowledge. I passed all the assessments with "flying colors" (as Meredith said), and she submitted the results to the client and used this to make up for my lack of 3 years experience. Sure enough, the client wanted to interview me (face to face) that next week on a Tuesday, along with 5 other potential candidates. Of course I was very nervous, being that I was certain that someone else would most likely have more experience than I. To my surprise Meredith called me back stating that the client wanted a second interview, but this time, with the COO of the company! TWO DAYS LATER, Meredith called me and informed me that the client chose me!!! How often in life, do you look for a career change while relocating to a new city, and land a job within TWO WEEKS of looking?? Never!!! Meredith went above and beyond my expectations to assist me in finding a job, and I cannot thank her or Robert Half enough! If you're looking for employment in the Accounting/Finance field, use Robert Half and make sure that you request Meredith Parker's assistance! Best wishes, Marteshia read more

I had the best recruiting experience with Damien Richburg at Robert Half. I was in the process of relocating to Austin for my husband's job. Damien listened to what I was looking for in my next job, introduced me to some phenomenal employers, and worked with my tight schedule for in person interviews. He managed to schedule 4 interviews during a long weekend visit! Damien was very communicative and easily accessible throughout the entire process. I am so grateful for his attention and commitment to find the right cultural and career fit for me. I would highly recommend Damien, he genuinely looks for the best interest of both the employee and employer and is thorough during his interview process to make sure you're a right fit. read more

I was referred to Damien Richburg by a former colleague and I am glad she did. He was able to get me two interviews in the first week of working with him and both had prospects of being a great improvement in my career. The position I liked the most offered me the job the same day as my second interview and even offered me top dollar! Damien's helpful guidance and commitment to finding me exactly what I was looking for made the whole process so much less stressful. I will definitely be sending friends and colleagues to Damien and Robert Half to help find their next best opportunities! read more

They have a great team of professionals at the Robert Half office in Austin. I had the pleasure of working with Holly Dary. Holly took the time to really listen to my wants, desires, concerns, and needs for my new job. She quickly understood what I was looking for and did not waste my time on job interviews I would not have an interest in. In a short period of time Holly was able to help me land a great job in the industry and location I desired and a company I am proud to be working for. read more

Just another 3rd party "recruiter" used by companies to get away with discrimination. I am well educated, have several marketable skills, and have great experience. I have NO criminal record. Charlatans like this post jobs - when I respond that I am interested in a certain job, I never get an interview or job offer. Shame on them. What will they do when they have major family obligations and need to choose between family or work? I chose to leave employment for awhile while my husband was in the military and I had special needs children and elderly mother who couldn't care for herself. Now that I am trying gain employment, I am repeatedly kicked to the curb by hurtful "screeners" because I am unemployed. Very hurtful and very un-American. Reply to Robert Half - YOU DO discriminate against the unemployed and military families. read more

I recently worked with Damien Richburg. He provided the best experience I've had with a recruiter to date. He clearly took time to understand what I was looking for and would only bring me roles that he felt aligned with my strengths and goals. This is a very unique service at the level of understanding he demonstrated! I ended up taking a position a little outside of the box for me that I'm really excited about because he recognized the potential the role had to be a good fit. He stayed in touch with me over a period of 6 months until we found the right thing, and clearly wanted to find me the right job. I would recommend all candidates be sure you understand the Robert Half process when offers are impending to be sure no miscommunication with your recruiter on salary range and likelihood of accepting the job. That part of the process I had to adjust to a bit. Thanks, Damien! read more

I had an extremely positive experience working with Damien Richburg to find a new role. Damien reached out to me with an opportunity in mind and after the initial meeting with him, I felt confident that not only would the role be a fit, but also that I was working with a supportive, competent and dedicated recruiting manager. Damien was always transparent, thorough and highly communicative throughout my interview process. He went out of his way to make sure I was ready to succeed in each of my interviews with my now current employer, really paying attention to whether the role and my career goals were a good fit. He has continued to follow-up with me after I have started in my new role to be sure that everything has continued to go smoothly. I am quite happy in my new position and would absolutely recommend working with Damien to any finance professional looking to make a career change in the Austin area. read more

I highly recommend connecting with Angela Dildine. She played a very vital role in helping me find a great position at a great company. That position just recently turned to full time. I would not have this opportunity today if it was not for Angela. She was very helpful through my whole process. Offered help whenever it was needed and was always available to talk. read more

Ask for Damien Richburg. He worked with me to not only find a job that met my career goals, but also a better fit for my work / life needs. I didn't feel lost in the shuffle of candidates and he follows up with you throughout the process. read more

Robert Half is nothing short of amazing at what they do! I worked with Holly, and she was so wonderful to work with. She was professional, always willing to take my call and answer my questions, and was always really honest about what I would be walking into with each position we looked at. It only took 2 months from our initial meeting until I had a job offer that was exactly what I was looking for. She made the process so easy and helped me navigate every step of the way. Overall, the best thing was that she fought for me to find a place where I would be happy to work. I have already recommended this company to a few friends and will continue to do so if I hear of anyone who is looking for a new job. Their entire staff is great and will work really hard to find you what you are looking for! read more

I truly enjoyed working with Recruiting Manager, Delena Spencer, MBA, MS. I feel Delena did an excellent job matching opportunities to my skills/experience. She gave me clear, useful feedback and I would consider her to be my "coach." When the time comes, I will look to work with her again. read more

I moved to the Austin area in 2004 and started to "use" Robert Half in 2005. I have tried using them off and on ever since, but not one time have they ever said they have a position they want me to interview for. When I moved here I carried two Top Secret clearances. Did it help? No. I have an MBA. Does it help? No. I am over 40. Does it help? It probably is considered a liability. I submitted an application to the Dayton RH office for a position to try to move there, and in the two weeks that I submitted it, I have not been contacted even though I was highly qualified for the position. There was not even an acknowledgment of receipt of my resume. In the mean time, I have had a half dozen agencies get me positions, including agencies that even called me up when I didn't apply. Avoid Robert Half and save yourself some aggravation. read more

I spent more than a year searching for an accounting job. Over 100 resumes sent out...not a single interview to show for it! Then I saw a position online through Accountemps. I applied online and submitted my paperwork, but the position was already filled. I went through the interview and evaluation process online and through Skype. I never even went into the office. Two weeks later on a Friday afternoon, I get a phone call from Lindsay Kedy. There is a job that they would like to send me out to interview on. Phone interview on Monday...working in-house interview on Tuesday...meet with the owner on Wednesday...started my temp work on Thursday. OUTSTANDING! In fact...the process went so fast that I never got the chance to meet with them to finish my "employee paperwork." Angela Dildine worked with me to get that set up quickly...then she, Lindsay and Claudia Carrasco have kept in touch with me to ensure that the process was going well, and to see if I had an questions or concerns. They have always been right there...professional, and prompt. Now...I'm going to be a permanent employee at my temp assignment. I cannot say enough good things about this particular Accountemps location! Thank you, Lindsay, for setting up the interview. Thank you, Claudia, for getting the ball rolling on the permanent employee transition. And a very special "thank you" to Angela. You kept in contact with me...sometimes as late as 9:00 pm, just to make sure that I had all the information that I needed. You are a special kind of person. I can only hope that every Accountemps location has someone there who is equally dedicated to their recruits as you are. read more

THIS OFFICE TEAM IS A JOKE!!! I have worked with Office Team in the past in 2 different states and had such great luck that I thought Austin wouldn't be any different. WRONG!!! They will bring you in, interview you, test you, and put you in the back of the pile. If you're lucky you may hear from them, but only to submit your resume, and never be heard from again, or for a 1-3 day assignment that's out of your driving distance. If you email or call regarding position posted online they will tell you that they have been filled. OFFICE TEAM isn't usually like this. Like I said, I had amazing reviews on the last 2 I worked with, and even referred a family member, and friends, and they had the same luck as me, but as for this Office Team as I stated above it's a JOKE. read more

This has to be one of the worst agencies I have worked with. I have been signed up with them for a few months now. They have sent me on a couple of interviews that I was over qualified for. It is kind of uncomfortable when the employer I am interviewing with says "They keep sending me the wrong people". They never return my calls or emails. The couple of times I have been able to reach Elizabeth, she is very rude and acts like she doesnt want to deal with me. I do not recommend this agency. There are much better ones in Austin. Keep looking. read more

Do not use this agency. I didn't hear from them for a few months and when they finally got me a job, they didn't actually seem to know anything about the position. When I got to my assignment, the office manager described a job that was much different than what the agency told me. As a result, it was not a good fit for both me and the company, so the assignment ended early. OfficeTeam admitted it was largely their fault but still didn't seem to care about finding me a new job. They don't do their research and are extremely disorganized. Go elsewhere. read more

I have had the same bad luck as everyone else. I don't know why I wasted my time going in to interview back in Feb 2012. I have only been given one assignment since that time that I could accept. I concur, they don't seem to read your file or know who you are before they call you. I got a few offers earlier last year but they were all far away or payed such a low wage it wasn't worth the hr drive to get there for a part time job, I mean, would you drive an hr to work for only 3 or 4hrs daily for only $12hr?! It was insulting. read more

I worked with Delena Spencer at Robert Half Finance & Accounting in Austin to find a new position and the entire process was extremely pleasant. Delena worked tirelessly to find a position that fits my needs as well as the hiring company's needs. Delena was always available to answer questions, discuss potential opportunities, and provide detailed information regarding every step of the process. Furthermore, she was extremely motivating and encouraging - she truly went above and beyond and made it clear that my happiness and success was her priority. My expectations were exceeded and I would never hesitate to recommend Delena and the entire Robert Half team to my friends and family. read more

Robert Half was very proactive in my job search and I would definitely recommend them to those looking for technical roles in the Austin/San Antonio area as a tool for your job search. I was looking for developer roles in my field after completing a coding bootcamp when I was contacted by a Robert Half recruiter out of San Antonio. I am a 6-year Austinite and do not plan on leaving this city, but I let the process continue for a position in a great tech company down there. I figured if it panned out then I would make my decision at that time whether it was worth the commute or not (from South Austin it ends up being about an hr ¯\_(ツ)_/¯). When it came down to making my final decision for positions, my best two offers, once all the interviewing was said and done, were from a start up company in Austin and a larger tech company out of San Antonio that Robert Half presented to me. I was surprised because I thought that I would definitely choose an Austin position over commuting out of the city, but it turns out I am really happy with the position that Robert Half brought to me because it was the best overall choice for my career; I am growing a lot in my field, I have great coworkers, and I am very happy with the compensation. Now I don't think that I would have even considered the position if it weren't for the work that John Henry, my Robert Half recruiter, put into getting me in front of hiring managers for interviews. When it came down to it, I just wanted to be able to get in front of other developers who were hiring and show them what I could do and convince them that I was the best person for the role, and John Henry did just that for me. Throughout the process he was very attentive and comfortable to speak to and I felt like he was working hard to get me in for interviews. Overall feedback for people thinking about working with Robert Half: You still have to keep looking for a job on your own, but Robert Half is a great resource that can help you find a position with a great company that you might not have access to otherwise. Just my experience. read more

So, I have yet to go on my first assignment (starts on Monday). All I can review is their initial interview and post-interview service. Office Team actually reached out to me via my online resume. I set up the appointment and met with Tate, who is a doll. Not literally, she's just super sweet. After that, my online assessments were sent to me for completion. The same day, I got offered a position elsewhere, which I took. I didn't finish my assessment. So, I leave this other job because it wasn't a good fit for me. Called Kaye, asked her to send me the assessments I didn't finish. After completing them, I was called the next day by Kaye who had a long-term temp contract awaiting me! So far as I can tell, Office Team is on the ball. read more
