I walked into OfficeTeam one day looking for assistance with my job hunt and less than two weeks later I was placed! I seriously couldn't believe it. I worked with Kelly Yamamoto who was absolutely fantastic! She worked with me and my resume to determine my preferences and what my best fit might be. I never expected so much assistance from one organization. Kelly and I communicated almost every other day whether it was about different positions I could apply for, resume editing and even interview prepping! I would say I was definitely nervous when I decided to work with a temp agency but I now know I couldn't have made a better choice. I can't recommend this agency and Kelly enough. Thank you for everything! read more

I signed up with Office Team in Downtown LA, but was given an assignment by the Pasadena team. Office Team has been the first employment agency I have ever worked with and I must admit I wish I would have tried them sooner. The Pasadena team works very hard to keep clients happy and ensure assignments are available to candidates.I have nothing but positive things to say about Office Team as they have always been friendly, helpful and professional with me. I went on assignment through Office Team Pasadena with a company for over 5 months. That assignment is now a permanent job and I would not have found this position if it was not for Office Team Pasadena. Great team, great companies to work with, and great overall experience. I would highly recommend Office Team Pasadena. Thanks Meloni and team! read more

I have been working with Meloni on job prospects and while my field search is very specific, Meloni has been very knowledgable and helpful in getting me interviews. Even though I have yet to land work through OfficeTeam, every time I speak with Meloni I come away from the conversation with some valuable insight on everything from job seeking advice, what employers are looking for as well as helpful tips on my resume for future job submissions. read more

I contacted Robert Half in Pasadena in the hopes of a direct job placement. First off the receptionist needs a bit more training on how not to address callers. She transfers me to Accountemps without asking if were interested in temping or direct hire. After speaking with Accountemps they transferred me to Monika Koenig. After a brief conversation with her I suggested I email my resume so she may review and then get back with me. She responded with an email asking me to call her. I returned her email asking her if she was available after 4 pm. To which she did not respond. When I phoned her she was very direct in telling me that I have "gaps" in my resume. I asked her which gaps? I proceeded to explain the reasons why I have had short periods of work. They were temp assignments. But she kept cutting me off, interrupting my explanation of how when we fell into a recession I had to take on temp assignments as many of you I'm sure have encountered. I have been working consistantly with no gaps as she put it. But she said that her clients would not be interested in candidates such as myself. I responded by telling her that I have never been spoken to like this before, ever. And I worked with many recruiters, including Accountemps. I've work in numerous industries such as manufacturing, aerospace, real estate, property management, government, retail, logistic/transportation, you name it and I've done it. I felt she came off very snobbish and unconcerned with my needs. She basically said, "I don't think I can help you". I have never encountered a recruiter such as her. And I was wondering if any one out there has been mistreated by Monika Koenig as I have been. It's such a shame but I had high hopes that Robert Half in Pasadena would help me. read more

Do not waste your time or references on these people. They are only looking out for themselves. When I tried working here they called me last minute, bothered my references for a HORRIBLE JOB. I told them this job was not meeting OSHA requirements and they didn't care or do anything. I stuck it out for a week and when I told the employer I would not be interested in their offer, office team called me up and berated me for deciding not to continue with this employment even though I had told them the job was not only bad, but in violation of basic standards. Then they black ball you! read more

My experience with Office Team of Pasadena has been positive and very methodical. MeMe Sanchez did everything in her capacity to make the process run smoothly and efficiently for each assignment I was selected for. As one other reviewer stated, "everyone here is on your side"! They do make an effort to make sure that you are in the right placement and follow up with you at a later time. I highly recommend this recruiting firm. read more

Not the best agency to go to for help in finding work. Especially if you are doing something in regards to the medical field.

I have worked with a number of employment agencies over the years and OfficeTeam is by far the most professional and committed to a jobseeker's success. Kelly Yamamoto really helped me out of a tough spot after a horrible experience with another local agency and she was able to keep me working. They use FaceTime interviewing which was really convenient and comfortable and their website is very easy to use. I could probably say more but I was nothing short of totally impressed and I now have a new position that I really enjoy thanks to Kelly and her agency. Truly a class act! read more

I recieved a cold call from Kelly Yamamoto who had viewed an old resume if mine. After submitting a current resume, she forwarded it to her client that immediately hired me as a temp for 7 weeks, site unseen. The Client was the best. I truly appreciate Kelly for stepping out on faith and trusting that I was capable of representing Office Team in a positive light read more

The staff are awesome. Samantha Lopez checks in with me weekly. She attentive and values my opinion about the assignments

I am a student that was looking for work over the past summer and applied to OfficeTeam. I was paired with Kelly Yamamoto and she was absolutely amazing! She was extremely professional and was able to find me a temporary position very quickly. She was easy to get in touch with and was in constant contact with me throughout the entire process. I highly recommend working with OfficeTeam if you are looking for temporary or temp-to-hire positions. read more

I moved to LA with my partner and didn't have any job prospects lined up. For weeks I blindly applied to jobs I found online and through a network of friends and family, and got nothing. I decided to try a Temp Agency. I applied for OfficeTeam in Pasadena and met with Meloni. She was positive and honest. She told me she had an opportunity in mind for me and that she would call me with the details. Within a few days she had scheduled me for an interview with a large, reputable organization. I had the interview on Friday afternoon and by the time I got home from it I got a call from Meloni letting me know they wanted me to start Monday! It only took a week from when I heard of OfficeTeam to when I started my first assignment with them. I have been working that same organization for two months now and have been offered a permanent position with them. I found Meloni and Valentine to be helpful and honest. They call every few days or weeks to see how I am liking the assignment, and to check on other opportunities. The only reason I am not giving 5 STARS is because they do take a sizeable portion of what the organization is paying, about 50%. So, if you are looking to find a fine job fast, and you have good work experience and a positive attitude, I see no reason why OfficeTeam won't work for you. read more

Accountemps is an excellent place to visit for employment. Yes, you're required to takes some tests to gauge your abilities. Their training software Skillport is an amazing piece of software. It has thousands of books, guides, and courses in various fields. The hiring manager I spoke to was James Snell, who was informative and helpful. He gave great advice on what skillset companies are looking for and ways I can improve on those skillsets. read more

Robert Half/Officeteam are great! As soon as I applied with them online they reached out to me to setup a skype interview so they could get to know me and find out what I was looking for. Within about 2 weeks they found me a great job close to my house and the pay was also great. I have been here about a week so far and I really like it. When I went into their office to fill out the new job paperwork I met MeMe, Sahara and Jasmine and they were all very nice and the office was beautiful. read more

When looking for employment and making certain that you are moving in the right direction with your career, then Kelly Yamamoto and Scott are the folks you want on your team. I have had several great opportunities presented to me and if it wasn't for their diligence, commitment, and follow-through I would have never been considered. I'm grateful for their hard-work and dedication. read more

Great agency to work with! Anna is wonderful and was so helpful from day one. She really listened to what I was looking for in my career, guided me on the process of signing up with the agency and how everything works, and checked on me throughout my job to make sure everything was OK. Anna and her team are knowledgeable, professional, easy to get a hold of, and truly care about all their employees. I highly recommend Office Team over other agencies. Thank you! read more

I really can't say enough about Office Team overall as an employment agency but the Pasadena Office is outstanding. I found myself a victim of a lay-off and was overwhelmed in trying to get on the employment websites to find work. I knew that it could take awhile to get a permanent job but I needed to get some work immediately. I called Office Team in Pasadena where I live because I had worked with them many years ago and had a great experience. Once again I was not disappointed. I went in and met with the Pasadena Team and they were amazing. They were extremely professional, listened to what I was looking for and I could tell they would be great again to work with once again. It was not more than a few days later that I started getting assignments. Every time I was called with an assignment, I was given complete information on the company and what they were looking for and details about what skills the company needed. I never went to a job feeling like I was not prepared. I can't tell you how many agencies I went to and spent 3-4 hours there with promises of a call and never heard from them again. Or other agencies that tried to send me to jobs that were not a fit for me or my skill level. The worst thing I experience with other agencies was them calling me with false positions they had open that were a perfect match for me, only to be told when I got to their office that the person who called me must have made a mistake about these positions being available. I was so frustrated. I would tell anyone looking to work temp or temp to hire to give Office Team a call and if you can work with the Pasadena Office I know you will not be disappointed, I know I was not. It really turned everything around for me when I felt very stressed about my situation. Thank you Office Team. read more

Paolo Aragon is the best guy to have in your corner! He really cares about placing you at the best possible position. He gives lots of feedback from your interviews. A really stand up guy. read more

Since I have registered with them they have been exceptionally helpful.. they care about there people, they put 100% effort in getting the position in the right place.. they been keeping me busy and love it!! Recommend to anyone who is looking for job and want to stay and be a team!! read more

Worked with Anna for a few months. Smooth, easy process. Always helped anytime I called in, providing updates and new opportunities. Definitely will be recommending people to work with her! read more

I worked for a year at a good job through OfficeTeam in El Segundo a few years back and I was able to gain a lot of experience. After getting layed off earlier this year (from a different job) and being unemployed for 8 months with literally 0 success of interview offers, I decided to try out OfficeTeam again; this time the Pasadena office. That same week I found an admin job at the right kind of company I was looking for and literally interviewed less than a week later. They coordinated everything and gave me interview pointers and followed up with me almost immediately, and I got the job, just in time before the holidays. I'm so grateful. I should've considered them way before letting these 8 months pass by but I thought what I was looking for might have been too specific. I was so wrong! MeMe S., Anna R., Yaosca C.,and literally everyone else at OfficeTeam have been so supportive and are legitimately very nice to work with. I've recommended OfficeTeam to so many people all of these years and will continue to do so. read more

Beware! I also met with Valentine of Office Team in Pasadena. He contacted me after reviewing my resume online and asked to set up an interview for the next day, which I agreed to. Apparently, the way they suck you in is by complimenting you on your resume, experience and skills. They send you an e-mail with tests to take (such as Microsoft Word, Excel, typing, etc.) prior to meeting with them so they can evaluate your skills to determine whether or not they would like to actually meet with you, this way they can cancel the appointment if you don't meet their requirements or standards. When I arrived for my interview I was "greeted" by the receptionist who seemed to have a bad attitude (not to mention, there was a small hole in her slacks which was visible as I was standing at the front desk to sign in). During my "interview" with Valentine, he basically talked about how Office Team is one of the biggest agencies out there, not about what they offer or what I'm interested in. They may be one of the biggest staffing/temp agencies in the business, but they don't value their candidates. They treat you like you have what they're looking for over the phone to get you to come in, but once you're registered with them, you're just another number added to the pile. Also, they receive a commission for meeting their quota, the more candidates they register with Office Team, the better they do. I truly wish I had not wasted my time on Office Team in Pasadena. My recommendation is if you're serious about finding a job, then don't waste your time going thru the process only to not get results. read more

This company is absolutely awesome!! They have position openings for Officeteam (all office positions and others), Accountemps (Accounting Positions), RHI Technology (Tech. Field), RHI Finance and Accounting, The Creative Group (Website designers), RHI Legal (Legal Positions), and I may be missing a couple but I really can't stress enough how much this company has helped me find a position. The Robert Half International at this location is so great. The agents really care about what you (the job seeker) wants. I went through Officeteam because my job history is in executive office areas and Melissa( my staffing agent) really did a great job. I am now in a position where I am financially steady with my Salary based job that was temp. to hire and I can really see myself here longterm. The company has great work ethics and I couldn't be happier. And if you go through Officeteam, please ask for Melissa Magruder and let her know that Ashley sent you! She will really help you out if you are searching for a position. Thanks Luetrell, Melissa and Debra for everything you have done for me! read more

I worked with Anna for about half a year and she was great. She constantly and consistently had job opportunities for me, and she was very helpful anytime I spoke with her over the phone or via email. read more

I am extremely pleased with my decision to apply with Office Team! I was in contact with both Anna and MeMe and they have been very supportive throughout my whole application process. I would definitely recommend Office Team to anyone looking for a reliable and dedicated temp agency. Thanks Office Team! read more

Without asking me anything they said they can't work with me becuase I am currently working. Then said I have anohter call and hung up. This place is a joke. read more

I have to say that MeMe and Kelly did an awesome job placing me at cool little start up. Prior to this placement they referred me to other offices when their local office didn't have any openings. Thanks MeMe. read more

First they will get you in and follow up with you on a regular basis and if for a extended time, in my case was 3 weeks or so, they do not get you a position or interview they put you in a phase out list. They start to give you very broad response that doesn't answer your question and start to take longer and longer to respond which eventually turns to no response. They even try to brush me off by telling me stuff like "in my experience the best way to get a job is through your connections." As if that was some kind of wisdom... Every working professional knows that's the best way to get a job and if that worked why would I be needing you? read more

If you like any jobs posted on Roberthalf.com, move to a different branch, DO NOT get locked in with the Pasadena branch. Recruiters do not have the courtesy to follow up, even though I e-mailed them postings I was interested in from other branches, seems a lot of other candidates had the same reviews. I moved to a different branch of RH and already have job offers. read more

Been going there for 6 years now. The knowledge is deep and they have multiple resources for answers. My CPA is getting to know my unusual tax liabilities and always saves me money. As well he goes to bat for me and recently got a $5000 request from the IRS to $0 after 8 months of back and forth. Can't beat that!! read more

Unprofessional service, I did not have a good experience with them as a consumer. It was either lackluster service on some company members' parts or poor service on some that affected me poorly and did not provide the service they said they would. I am avoiding details because yelp has new guidelines and pulls reviews on so many criteria, and mine is very sincere. I did not get good service at all at this company and left as a result. I recommend other companies instead. read more

I have really liked corresponding with Samantha Lopez in the Pasadena office! She is helpful, professional and dedicated to finding a job that fits you. read more

Meloni & Valentine helped me to find my dream job; I'm forever grateful for everything they've done for me!! Everyone in the Pasadena office is very helpful, I'm sad Valentine is no longer in the Pasadena office, but I still have Mel read more

The staffs at Accountemps in Pasadena were excellent to work with. They were professional and supportive. Scott, Susan, Samantha, Cathryn and Valerie were able to reply back quickly to my request and resolve any discrepancies I had. I highly recommend their services. read more

When I called, I got in contact with Scott, whom on the same day, was able to secure me a job available near my location. He was quickly and readily in contact with me, genuinely seemed concerned about my career path, and easy to talk to. I was really impressed with the efficiency of how this team worked. I also let him know what I was looking for and what my expectations were in the work place, and he was readily able to find me a place that not only met what I was seeking, but was also conducive to my career path. I highly recommend their services to anyone actively seeking work read more

I'm hesitant to give 5 stars and write such a long review, but this office and company deserves it. I recently graduated from college and had another job offer that fell through. When I told a classmate I was going to go to Accountemps they laughed and said "nobody gets a job from these agencies......let me know how that turns out" Wrong! I did. It turned out better then expected... First off Kyle in the downtown office asked me to interview at this branch and introduced me to Brandon and Scott. Thank you, for having locations close by and matching me to this branch; which is close to my home. Next, after I had interviewed; which went well I had another job offer I mentioned. That original job offer fell through and a friend insisted I call the agency and let them know I was now available. I'm really glad I did. Saharah Alfaro contacted me within a day or two for a staff accountant job that sounded to good to be true. Within a couple days Saharah had found me my dream job in a dream location. I'm sure I told her as well as Scott who also helped me, "I'm waiting for the candid camera crew to pop out." Saharah has kept in contact to see how things are and overall I'm very pleased. Thank you, Saharah you gave me that boost of confidence you get when you've done a job well done. PS I do need to give a shout out to Natalie in City of Industry she sent me on a one day trial run to see if I wanted to work for a temp agency. Super nice and amazingly professional. I Love It.

This review is for Kelly Yamamoto and Garvey Foster. You guys are great!. I have only been with Office Team for about a month and a half (or so) and had only gone on a one day assignment. I thought all was lost because I didn't hear back from them for about three weeks. However, during that time, Kelly and Garvey were waiting on the 'perfect' job for me, and guess what....I believe it has happened. I received an assignment and went to it the next day and once I walked into that quaint, classy office...I knew it was what I had told them that I wanted. I believe I'm what the client was looking for as well as what I was looking for, so therefore I believe we are a perfect match. Thank you guys for taking the time to keep open ears and listened out for Sylvia's match. I believe I will love this place as I have already deemed it as somewhere I definitely would want to work at my age. I HIGHLY recommend Office Team for your job hunting search. This staff is great and I don't think you would be disappointed. They're Great!!! read more
