Aerotek is a national firm that ain't looking out for you, they are simply looking to use you to…read moregrow their bottom line. Often the difference in dollars between what a company is willing to pay, and what you as a contract hire under Aerotek see, are used to not only keep Aerotek afloat, but also to subsidize the bank account of the person doing the placement (they are not getting a flat fee, they are subsidizing their pay by the dollars they save for Aerotek). So the fewer dollars you are willing to work for, the better for Aerotek and its employees (you as a contract worker are not an employee). If Aerotek has a large pool of potential employees, it will find the one person in that pool who is willing to work for bottom dollar and place this person first. It really doesn't matter if there is someone with more experience at that job available. In fact, more experience often means that you would be seeking more money, so they may tell you the job isn't open with their left hand, while the right hand feeds that job to someone with no experience. After they let you wither on the vine for a while, you may get a job at a lesser pay. And if you have worked anywhere for many years, and through a blip in the economy were forced out of that job (anyone over 40), then do not even darken Aerotek's door. They might act like they are interested in you at first, but you will NEVER be placed even if they have to bring in someone from a somewhat aligned career who they have been leaving to wither on the vine elsewhere, but will now work for next to nothing. Don't demean yourself. Avoid Aerotek.

Within a day of my interview with Aerotek, they had an interview for a potential job lined up. When I didn't get that position, they had another interview lined up for the following Monday. My first day at that job is in a week. Would highly recommend Aerotek, especially to any recent college grads looking for work.
