So let's talk about Estrin Legal Staffing honestly…read more Since entering the legal field in 2016, I have worked with recruiters for all of my placements. All of have been great jobs. However, Estrin really sets themselves apart from what other recruiters are doing in the industry. How? They are your advocate. They work for the candidate, NOT the client. Many times you will hear a recruiter say "so and so firm is my client." And you know that their loyalty lies with the firm and not the placement. This leads to 1. A revolving door of low quality placements, 2. Interests in serving the clients needs and not the candidates needs, 3. If the job doesn't work out, your relationship with the recruiter is likely to end as well. Estrin is doing it right. Now let's talk about Maddie. What a powerhouse of a recruiter. Not only has she worked in the industry, she knows a good candidate from a bad one, she knows a candidates worth and she is not afraid to be relentlessly tenacious to get a candidate top dollar for salary and benefits. Let me know the last time you've had that experience in law? I'll wait... Maddie not only got me placed with an Am Law 100 firm, but she also pushed for more money. She stayed in constant communication with me and the company throughout the entire process, and continues to check in to ensure everything is going well. She reminded me that my worth was a lot more than I was valuing myself, because I was used to the low ball. All I can say is, thank GOD for Maddie. I'm so happy to be where I am today, and grateful for her persistence and expertise. Working with Estrin is one of the best decisions I have made in my career, and I continue to refer others to them as well. Thank you Maddie and Chere!

That's a bit odd to start off an interview. How about you let the person tell you their story. But it gets worst.... Five minutes later she couldn't even understand her own questions. She asked me where would I be moving too. When I told her I could work anywhere I had to repeat myself five times. I then realized it was a scam and this woman is not really looking for staffing, she's looking to okay games. If she emails you, stay away. If she sets up an interview, get details on the company beforehand. This woman is a fraud and I'm reporting her business to BBB.

My first interaction with The Help Company happened just over a year ago…read more I had recently moved to the Los Angeles area after dealing with some personal and family issues. Moving to LA from the East Coast was hard enough on its own, let alone trying to find a nanny position in a completely new area with no local experience or connections. I was struggling to find my place and the right opportunity. After meeting with two other agencies that flaked on me and made me feel like a second-class citizen, I found The Help Company. My initial interview was with Katie, and she and I instantly connected. Our conversation felt completely effortless. I felt heard, understood, and genuinely valued. Toward the end of our conversation, Claudia, the owner, came over and introduced herself. The connection was instantaneous. Within minutes, she was setting me up for an interview with a high-profile family looking for a long-term nanny. In my 10+ years of nannying, I had never experienced an agency that was so genuinely invested in my future. From that very first meeting, I couldn't have felt more supported, heard, or advocated for. I have now been with the family since that first interview, and I couldn't be happier. Finding the right position was about so much more than simply finding a job--it was about finding a place where I felt valued and supported, and The Help Company played a huge part in that. I rest easy knowing that Claudia and the entire Help Company team are behind me if I ever need them. I'm incredibly grateful for the support they've given me and for the opportunity they helped bring into my life. I truly can't recommend them enough.

If I could give this service 0 out of 5 stars, I would…read more First, I want to acknowledge how wonderful Naomi was when she helped place me in my first role. The second recruiter I worked with, Michelle, was also an absolute angel. She was supportive, kind, and communicative throughout the process, and I truly appreciated working with both of them. Unfortunately, my experience with the owner, Claudia, was the complete opposite. I have never in my life worked with someone as unprofessional as she was. To provide context, I was matched with two ultra high net worth clients through this company. Both individuals turned out to be extremely emotionally abusive. I have worked in the celebrity industry since I was 20 years old, and by the time I worked with these clients at age 31, I had never encountered behavior to that degree. While I understand that the company's priority is to place candidates and generate revenue, there should have been transparency about the individuals they were placing me with. In my experience, Claudia was only kind and engaged when a placement was made and the company was earning money. During my second placement, I gave a two week notice due to the increasingly toxic and emotionally abusive behavior I was experiencing from the client. One week into that notice period, the situation escalated further and I made the decision to leave the position early. I had previously been transparent with Michelle about my concerns and my desire to leave the role. At one point, the client contacted Claudia and shortly afterward Claudia left me a very aggressive voicemail referencing an NDA and accusing me of disclosing information about a previous employer. This accusation was completely unfounded. The previous client I worked for through this company was already listed on my resume, so there was nothing confidential about that information. I chose to respond by text message because I did not want to engage in a heated conversation when I knew I had done nothing wrong. Claudia's response to my message was simply a vomiting emoji. I found this reaction extremely unprofessional and inappropriate, especially given the circumstances I was dealing with at the time. The company and employer also made several accusations about my conduct. Ultimately, I provided the California EDD with substantial documentation covering the three month duration of my employment, including text messages, emails, and medical documentation. After reviewing the evidence, the judge ruled in my favor and granted unemployment benefits. It took me nearly two years to feel comfortable enough to write this review because of how stressful and traumatic the experience was. My hope is that no one else is placed into situations like this without transparency or support. I sincerely hope the company reflects on how candidates are treated moving forward.

I have hired multiple rock star domestic employees for my clients through The Grapevine Agency. Lori and Rachel are persistent when finding the best fit on all sides. They listen when communicating your needs and wants. They are SUPER accessible and truly take pride and care in making the best match. After many years working with them in the drivers seat, I recently stepped into the passenger side. I came to Lori when looking to make a switch in careers. We went through my work experience as well as my wants in my next job. I was particular on my needs and Lori took the time to hear it. We had candid conversations and I felt supported and looked out for every step of the way. I knew she had my best interest (as well as the interests of the client's looking). With her help, I've landed a great job I see myself in for the next several years. I'll continue to work with them! They are always my first stop when searching to fill a role.
