Not really good supporter. Butters you up in beginning, forces you to take a job, after that first job, they abandon you, even after you need to look for another.

I don't know how 3Bridge Network found me, but they just up and contacted me one day and had my contact and resume already. I learned later they came from Robert and Half and maybe had pulled me among others from the database to start their own independent temp agency. I really don't know for sure.
I worked with several temp agencies all over the Bay Area. This one forced me out of a temp job I previously was committed to in order to work for a company they wanted just so they can get a commission fast I later learned. They had originally told me that the other recruiting agency was "money hungry" forcing me to stick with my previous commitments before entering into a new one, and that I was able to quit and walk away from a committed contract at anytime. I learned later 3BN were the ones who were "money hungry", and really wanted to land that commission promising me false lies that this job would help me learn more about accounting in which at the time I desired to be in that industry. But taking it, cost me an opportunity for another job since I was also interviewing for other jobs at the time on my own. Now I had to juggle 2 jobs at one point in order to fulfill my commitments. The job they gave me promised a learning experience in accounting but the job ended up teaching me absolutely nothing. I was just a placeholder just so an employee who did the work I did could get promoted and then I had to hand my work I did over to someone else eventually leaving me with nothing to do, nothing to put on my resume, and a gap in my work history.
After working at the job they offered me, I was told I was severely underpaid by 3BN, meaning they took a lot of the commission profits. And I asked them to find me a better job that would benefit ME. Afterall, it is the reason why I worked for a Temp agency is hoping they could help me move up and pay more eventually, but they ended up not responding to my emails or phone calls after several times I tried reaching out to them.
Stay away from 3bridgenetworks.com for your own good. There are plenty of temp agencies out there who have better connections, better pay, and won't cheat you out of your career. The people to most stay away from is Casey Roth and Linda Wang. They told me lies and never worked with me on better my career.
There is one thing good though coming out from all of this. I spoke with another person who temped at this job. She told me of her temp agency whom apparently placed her a better position, pay, and growing prospects for the company. She and I were entering with the same skill set, and yet she had a much better opportunity.
I'm going with them. read more
