Randstad

In October '08 I stopped by Randstad's Windward Pkwy. location and filled out an application. Less than 48 hours later I was working a temp-to-hire position with a great company. I was hired on full time in January and have been loving every workday since. I was lucky, to be sure (timing was crucial) but I also feel much gratitude for the good people of the Windward Pkwy. Randstad office. Special kudos to Anthony who did a terrific job helping me get a terrific job -- thanks, man!

I got an assignment very quickly and worked until the assignment ended. They quickly found me something afterward but I didn't feel after a week of working the assignment that the job was a good fit for me. Although I offered to work the job until a replacement was found it was obviously held against me that I chose not to keep the position. After calling in available for weeks I stopped.

Also after applying for other jobs Randstad will only give inquiring employers a work number where a fee payment is required in order to provide any information about my having worked for them. Anyone wanting to confirm that you have worked for Randstad is out of luck unless they are willing to pay just to verify your dates of employment.

Working for Randstad is okay, it's after you leave you have to worry about.
