These recruiters are amazing! I made one phone call, interviewed with them the next day, and they…read moresent me to a temp-to-hire job the following day. Unfortunately, the first job was not what I wanted, but they didn't find fault with me and continued to place me on a regular basis for 2-3 days at a time. Steve even emails me in the morning before he gets to the office to let me know he is on the lookout for me. They coordinate well between offices and I just got a call from Angela who is placing me in a position for 2 weeks with the possibility of full-time, permanent placement. I have tried to coordinate with other agencies, but they are unresponsive and take way too much time to contact me when they do reach out to me. Pro Staff recruiters are professional, timely, and good, kind people. I highly recommend this group!

In 2008, they were the only agency who didn't see me as "overqualified" and got me a position at a…read morelocal factory at $8 hourly, which became a permanent position in about 45 days and an eventual supervisor position in about 6 months. They also continued to be my go-to staffing agency at the same factory and almost always provided excellent individuals, many of whom I was able to keep long-term. When I did have a problem with one of their temps, they immediately responded with a resolution that I was comfortable with.

I was struggling to find a job on my own after graduating for several months, so I looked into…read moreCreative Circle. I was pleasantly surprised with how helpful and friendly they were. They called me in for an interview where they got to know what kind of jobs I was interested in. They let me know that I was probably struggling so much in my search because I was applying to higher level jobs that I had thought were entry level. I would never have known that if they hadn't told me. They got to know my strengths as a candidate and when I asked if they thought they could find me something they said "we wouldn't take you on as a client if we didn't think we could find you something great." That really reassured me and made me feel more comfortable. They regularly sent me opportunities via email and if it was a really relevant opportunity to my skill set they would call and leave a short but informative voicemail with a follow-up email. Within just a few months they got me an interview at an amazing company that I couldn't be happier working for. Once I was officially going through the hiring process they were extremely helpful and responsive, not to mention completely over-the-moon that they were able to help me find a great opportunity! I never would have found this job without Creative Circle's connections. They're awesome and I highly recommend them!

I'm a freelancer and in my 20+ year career, Creative Circle was responsible for one of my worst…read morework experiences. Buckle in, this one's a doozie... They notified me of a potential job, I submitted my info and interest in the job, then they notified me that I landed the gig. Great....or so I thought. This gig was at a local children's hospital and they informed me that to do the job, I was required to get a background check and a bunch of vaccines(working around sick children is no joke). So, I ended up having 4 doctors appointments to fulfill the requirements for a job I hadn't even began yet. I paid out of pocket for every doctors visit, for blood work and vaccines. I spent hours on multiple days to get this done. After completing everything, I waited for Creative Circle to give me details about the gig. I waited and waited. I reached out to CC, asking for any info about the job, so that I could prepare and they kept stringing me along. Finally after weeks, I reached out to the actual client that I was supposed to be doing the job for and they told me the project had been scrapped and that they were super surprised that CC hadn't informed me of this. I reached out to CC about this, letting them know that I was out a ton of hours and some pretty serious money to meet the requirements that I was told I needed to do in order to do this job. They're response, "we can't control what the client does" and "we're not responsible for the money you had to spend or your time". This was a mega kluster F on CC's part and it took me a very long time to get over the stress and harm that they caused me over this debacle. I asked for compensation, they refused it, and said it was not their responsibility. This is not a reputable company. A reputable company would've done the right thing and taken care of their mess, but instead, they hung me out to dry. I would never recommend getting involved with Creative Circle to any serious freelancer or really anyone for that matter. Please steer clear.

Recruiter vs Agent…read more It was the first time in 20 years that I needed to find a new job, I figured I could just overcome the odds by sheer tenacity and indomitable grit. Months has gone by using this methodology which turned my hopeful expectations to monotonous disillusionment.The worst part of the whole experience was feeling alone in my delima. During this period of time I enlisted the aid of several recruiter companies to assist me in finding something adequate. My expectations for these type of services was the same expectations I would have from the guy behind the counter at Starbucks. It is because of this status quo of this generic consumer orientated approach to most services out there that the experience I had with Riverpoint stands out so much. The best way to summarize my experience is feeling like I had Jerry Maguire representing me. Recently Dan Moberly help me find a new place of employment that is far better than what I could have managed on my own. The very least I can do is express my gratitude by posting my experience with them on my social media sites and hope other people looking for representation in the job market contact them.
