After working with several staffing companies while looking for a position, I have to say I wasn't that impressed with Astyra. A recruiter contacted me about a position, hounded me until I sent my information, then provided very poor contact. After not hearing from her for a week, I checked in with the recruiter to be told she was still waiting. Then I checked in a week later and she still had no updates. Then, I never heard from her again. Was another candidate chosen? Was the position froze? I have no clue.
After working with other staffing agencies (those where I got and did not get positions), I realized this isn't the way it should go. Other recruiters maintain good contact, help you fix your resume, provide career advice and try to find multiple positions that are a fit for you.
Maybe I hit Astyra at the wrong time, but it wasn't my best experience. read more
