As far as temp agencys go, there's not a whole lot of distinction between competitors. Although I…read morehave run into one of three frustrating problems with all the local agencies: 1)asking you to come in for an interview yet not interviewing you for the job you applied for. 2) claiming to place you at local employers yet only offering you positions that pay way too little for the hour plus drive you'd be making. 3) Making you jump through hours of pointless paperwork & training videos only to never place you...then having the nerve to call you over a year later. With Snider-Blake, I only had to deal with issue #1 & #2 (but two was my own fault). If you hate interviews, let's be honest they're a huge waist of time & know body enjoys the "experience"- this place doesn't actually conduct an interview. They'll discuss your job options and do their best to work with you (Morgan did an awesome job in finding an employer that would accommodate a medical issue I have). But be prepared as you'll be required to take a drug test on site & watch a training video. And as with all temp agencies, there's hidden fees. If you try out a job & it doesn't work out for you- you'll owe them $49.00! They state this is to cover the cost of a background check & drug testing but realistically this is not anywhere near the cost (In fact, you shouldn't be charged at all as you aren't expected to pay for these things if you are hired directly through a company & not an agency). Depending on which company you're placed with; they also provide you with attire (vest, gloves, hardhat) that you are financially responsible for returning in tip top shape- otherwise it's a $19.00 fee. Although they did find me immediate job placement (which I'm thankful for) I was unable to take them up on their offer which is my own mistake & not theirs. Again, they'll work with you & I stupidly agreed to work within a 20 mile radius so a 15 mile drive is equal to a little over an hours time due to two unavoidable school zones & constant heavy traffic in Twinsburg. I know from past employers that I'd never make it to the job site on time so this is something you should also consider. Again, Snider-Blake offers immediate placement which is more than I can say for places like Mancan, Employtemps, Ryan Staffing & Kelly's. Yet wherever you go, good luck!!! Finding a job is 10xs harder than people think so if you're down on your luck just remember at least you're trying.

This staffing agency was so slow and unhelpful. After…read morehaving my interview it took almost 2 WEEKS to even hear anything back and then still then- they needed me to interview with the actual company. They were very disorganized and I am so dissapointed I went through them, even now I am without a job. I would give your business elsewhere as they clearly dont know what they are doing or how to provide jobs quickly. Super disappointed.

Like every other staffing agency, you spend minutes filling out their on-line application yet an…read morehour or so going through the paper process. If you already have a job but are in the process of looking for a new one, the smart thing to do is have a plan b before you leave your current employer. However, it was clear that Accurate Staffing doesn't feel that way as they seemed annoyed that I wanted to give my employer a proper two weeks notice. All staffing agencies want you to drop everything at the last possible minute and be available within a few hours notice...yes, the staff here was friendly but they definitely wasted my time.They knew I was employed when they called me and then never bothered to call me in for an interview with the company they were trying to place me with because I insisted on a 2 week notice. They also have some questionable requirements that I've never dealt with at other temp agencies. One issue is that you are required to pay for your own drug test($25.00) if you agree to take on an assignment. This should NEVER be a requirement of an employee! The company that wants to take you on should be the ones to pocket the expense. There was also an additional $25.00 fee if you agreed to an assignment but decided the job wasn't for you. Even if you only worked one day and decided it wasn't the right fit- you would have $25.00 deducted from your paycheck. Then after wasting over an hour doing paper work, they email you (without telling you to check it) a notice stating that within 24 hours, they want you to return to their location- for what?! I was just there! Again, this agency had some hidden fees that other places don't require you to pay so make sure you read the fine print!

The staff here are really nice, however, the application process is like signing your sole over to the devil himself. It clearly states that you work for Mancan & that if you refuse a job that they wont help you find one later on down the road...like you're being blackmailed into taking unwanted job positions or else! And the jobs are just crap factory positions that only want to pay minimum wage, not $10.00 like most places. And they keep calling me with horrible jobs they think I might be good at that are 2nd shift when I only want to work first. I'm not saying don't go here, a job is a job & beggars can't be choosers but I really question this place & didn't get a good vibe from it at all.

I agree with Brett. I was asked to come in after I applied to a job through Indeed.com but when I…read moregot there (even though they had my resume) I had to waste 2 hours and reapply. Then when I finally met with Sparky, he wanted to place me at a company that was further away from my home. Although the pay was more, I wasn't interested and didn't understand why we weren't discussing the factory position I was interested in. I received an email to come back in and watch an orientation video for the position I didn't want. But we got three days of snow (over 8 inches the first night) so I wasn't able to leave my driveway. I had emailed Sparky to let him know and ask to reschedule- it's been over a week and I've received no reply. I don't know how they make any money if they don't place willing workers.

I also found out from another staffing agent that the wage was posted at approximately $10 higher than the actual pay. I would not recommend as I have not heard from them since my interview a week ago. They do not seem to actively seek to place you in a position.

The process to get in is not easy! We thought about doing it ourselves, but the risk is just too big. You can only try once! We did some research on immigration lawyers in the 'Greater Cleveland Area'. And we decided to have a free consultation with Mr. Jaballas to see if this was someone we would like to work with. We both were convinced after this first meeting and decided to work with him and his amazing secretary Maria. They have not disappointed us at all! I've got my green card! And really fast. It only took 3 months from the moment we filled all the paperwork. Mr. Jaballas and Maria are very thorough and precise. Exactly what you need from an immigration lawyer. I would highly recommend Mr. Jaballas!
