So disorganized. They call my father in law who passed away 8 years ago only because his name is close to my husband's name. Not close enough though. -- I appreciate Gretel reaching out but we gave up after eight years of telling them this. We're not going through hoops no more." read more

By FAR the most unprofessional and dysfunctional office I've ever had to deal with. Maybe the COMPANY is reputable, but this location is stocked with ne'er-do-wells. And the staffing is a true revolving door. The turnover rate is mind-boggling! This is actually my reinstatement of a previous review of AccounTemps I've left. Two upper-crusties in he NYC and Paramus offices read my first review and contacted me to "fix things". I agreed to delete my complaint and they agreed to not only reset my PeopleID so I could see job openings on their website, but the person in the NY main office agreed to make an effort to find me work citing my MS-Excel testing as being "off the charts". I took him at his word as he represented himself as a VP. A quick look for him on LinkedIn.com showed he was merely a branch manager. Not only did this person welsh on his promise to me, but once I deleted my complaint, he stopped returning phone calls and e-mails. I sent him 1 and 2-page resumes, my most recent Performance Appraisal {exceeds expectations} and a 3-page synopsis of my previously recognized achievements at his request. I'll bet the deed to my home that he never did anything with them. I was about to reinstate my complaint when I saw a woman who lives in my area had posted permanent jobs in the NJ Dept of Labor office in my town. So I decided to contact her and make her my last ditch effort to work with these losers. She has proven to be equally as incompetent. She didn't need to find me work...only reset my account password so I could use their website. Not too much to ask, but apparently for her, it was. Worthless.... I have had this problem with AccounTemps since November 2012. It boggles my mind that they are so incompetent. But when you check their employees on LinkedIn, you'll see that none of their recruiters have any real financial experience. They are all flunkies who probably got hired due to personal friendships with others who already "work" for the company. Their recruiters come from gas stations, beer distributors, real estate, failed businesses, etc. If you are looking for a job, be it temporary or permanent and live in the northern NJ area, you'd do well to avoid this clown circus. Unless your previous job was working as a cashier in a Shop-Rite or school custodian. If you have almost 20 years of Corporate HQ Financial/Credit experience, they won't know what to do with you. read more

These big employment agencies are joke. Especially this one they keep calling and emailing before you come in to meet them, right after they are silent... I emailed them multiple times, to multiple recruiters and never heard a response, only once did someone call me back. At my job I work at now (thanks to the help from another agency), it's required to answer all emails sent me, maybe you should train your employees to do the same read more

I have applied to positions with this firm quite a few times and if I'm lucky to get a call I have to go to their office. I have been to the Parsippany and Paramus office so many times in the last 18 months and yet they have yet to place me in a job. I have years of accounts payable experience. I was desperate this past summer I even signed up with their temp side after I had applied for a position they had posted. Then I didn't hear anything for over a month and when I did I had been lucky to find a permanent position. Going to Robert Half offices is worse than going to the dentist, only it's a waste of time. read more

These people are the worst to work with. I went to them looking for a temp position for the summer since the full time job I accepted starts in November. I specifically stated where I was located and the type of work I was looking for. I found several positions on their website that I felt fit my current preferences to which they would respond saying they felt they had better matches (first red flag them thinking they knew what fit me better than I did). Then kept coming to me with jobs a decent ride from where I'm located so I felt compelled to just go on one of the interviews to check it out since I felt at that point there would be no other choice in terms of location. (Mind you I'm from the New York metro area so it is not like I live in the middle of nowhere and far from many job opportunities) After going on an interview, I knew the position was not what I was look for but the very pushy team insisted it was "perfect for me". It was not even a role with any relevance to what I have a degree in. I told them I would consider but never formally got in touch with anyone to say I wanted the position/what are the details. In fact I had said if there other opportunities available that would be more fitting please send them my way. I did not hear from anyone for a few days and finally got an email on May 28th at 4:00pm to say I would be starting the assignment (that I never formally accepted) on May 29th at 9:00am. Talk about short notice !! Not even a phone call either, literally a last minute email. At this point my back was sort of against the wall as they clearly had relayed to the company I was starting. I tried reaching out them in which one one responded to me, and since I actually have a sense of professionalism I went to the assignment the first day since the company was expecting me and I did want to not show up since the miscommunication was not on their end, it was completely on Robert Half. As expected, the role was far from what I was looking for as it was heavily based in operations and my degree as well as experience is in accounting and taxation. I also had made clear I needed part time work as I was taking CPA prep courses in which Robert Half said they would work that out for me..spoiler they did not. The contract for the temp assignment was also through January when I had stated I am only available until September. This experience made me realize these people are incompetent, unprofessional, and only want to get people positions in which they will get the highest cut. They are not client driven and do next to nothing to really help people in what they are looking for. They are unorganized and honestly their "recruiters" and "staffing specialists" are a bunch of uneducated momo's. Would never recommend Robert Half to anyone. read more

Don't expect too many call backs from Chris M. I figured out for myself that I didn't get the position after the second interview and three weeks passed. read more
