I just had one of the most awkward and uncomfortable interactions with a recruiter from Pacific…read moreStaffing, specifically Elizabeth Mann. I applied for a position and received an email from her asking if I was looking for work and to call her to discuss opportunities. When I did call, it went to voicemail, but she returned the call within a few minutes. From the start, the conversation felt off. She told me her "team" received my résumé for an HR Coordinator position but that they already had two candidates in the final stages. That was confusing, since she was the one who reached out to me. She then began asking about my professional experience, my current role, and my previous roles. The questions themselves were fine, but the way she handled the conversation was not. Each time I tried to answer, I was either cut off mid-sentence or met with long, uncomfortable silence that she tried to down play by saying she was looking into other positions. It didn't feel like she was actively listening or genuinely interested. It also didn't seem like she had taken the time to review my résumé before calling, despite being the one who initiated the contact. I also asked her what OTHER roles they might have available, for instance; Customer Service, Administrative/Clerical, Data Entry, etc. she stillllll wanted to discuss HR Coordinator roles. If you're going to ask me questions about my resume, ask them in the manner of which you have first done your due diligence to review it fully, so you can properly ask me questions that relate to my experience and the variety of jobs posted available. Side note: I have 8 years of experience across training and organizational development, Non-profit sector administrative roles, HR Contact Center experience, and Executive Level Onboarding. So please cut the BS when you call people and act as though their experience isn't a fit, maybe learn how to ask proper screening questions. She mentioned having three HR Coordinator openings, but the way she described them didn't sound genuine, nor did it sound like she had any interest in assisting with finding an appropriate fit. She said she would reach out about one position only if the two candidates currently in the final stage didn't work out -- which felt unnecessary to say and was very passive. She also mentioned another role in Auburn, CA, but by that point, the tone of the call made it clear to me that continuing the conversation wasn't productive and truthfully a waste of my time so yes, I cut it very short and practically laughed at her because WTH why even call? or why keep asking questions if you're not even interested in doing YOUR job. Silly. Overall, the call was rushed, disorganized, and dismissive. Based on this experience alone, I'm not interested in pursuing any opportunities through Pacific Staffing, just like I told her over the phone. I ended the call respectfully, but it was enough for me to decide I would not recommend this agency.

Avoid at all cost! Went looking for temp staff and they offered a direct hire candidate. After…read moremultiple interviews and negotiation, we offered a position expecting to start in 2 weeks. Friday before a Monday start, they call to tell us the hire leveraged our offer for a pay raise! Incredibly un-professional company. Couldn't be bothered to let us know this had happened more than a week ago! And for this "service" they expected to be paid nearly $30K. Unbelievable!

This particular business has given me the worst experience in the job industry that I have ever…read moreencounter or had to experience. They tell you that when you work throughout the day, as soon as you rate and confirm your hours that you have worked through the app then you'll will be paid within minutes. Well that has not been the case. They have done so several times, either paid the wrong person my wages and/ or have taken two to three days later to get my payment loaded on my debit card. They have also removed job tickets off of my profile for no apparent reason and when I follow the instructions to call the office and request for the reason why they'll either put me on hold or just plain hang up the phone and not answer when I call back. They have the most unprofessional managers and talent recruiters on planet earth and more. I have tried to give them the benefit of the doubt and think of other logical reasons for they're actions but in the end of the day they are just horrible, and I mean blatantly horrible when dealing with customers and employees. I have been cheated out of my time and money on numerous accounts and especially the West Sacramento office has given me the wrong address to curtain job sites and have reprimanded me for showing up late to work when they fail to provide me with the proper location, They have either given me the wrong equipment or not given me any equipment at all to maintain site policies and safety rules. I am writing this review to warn any and everyone I possibly can that "People Ready temp service" is the most unprofessional and dishonest organization I have ever worked for and will never attempt to work for them on any occasion whatsoever beyond today. They are the most immorally and unethically type of business I have ever dealt with. So whoever uses temp agencies to find permanent work or just day to day payout gigs, your better off using labor max or aerotek or even select staffing rather than go to people ready. Save yourself the headache and rising blood pressure because that's all you'll get out of these people. I wouldn't take this review down even if they paid me because I feel this will help someone out there from making the biggest mistake of they're lives. Thank you all who have read this, understood, and have considered all of what I just mentioned. Even if you do not agree personally all of this are hard facts that I have sat back too long and not said anything. Today I do. God bless you all!!!!!!!!!

I knew she actually cared about my skills and attributes, as well as what I needed in my next job. Leslie was able to provide me with several leads during our first conversation. This process can be very stressful and it meant a lot to me to have her guidance. I never once felt pressured to make a premature decision. Leslie is frank, sincere, and has a positive personality. These traits helped me tremendously throughout the process.
