My experience at office team was incredible. I have never worked with a temp agency before and I honestly loved it. Victoria Firestone helped me in ways that most places wouldn't. She kept up with calls and emails to make sure that I was happy and enjoying my job. When a conflict came up she immediately called me and we talked things through. She offered to talk with the job I was at and helped me through not leaving a job I really liked. She was amazing and I am really grateful that she was there to help me and just make sure everything was good. I would recommend anyone I knew that was looking for a job to go to Office team. read more

What a joke! I applied online and called in to follow up, speaking to reception and leaving messages for Mallory. She never acknowledged getting my information online and never called back. Over the next few months I would occasionally get emails with generic information or asking me to update my resume. After about half a year they finally sent me a job lead that they thought would be a good match....as an attorney in Oceanside. I have an master's degree but am not an attorney, and I would not drive over an hour each way to work in North County. 100% waste of time. read more

This agency has several openings but they are saved for select few when you asked about the hire position that you are very much qualified for they dance around why you are not placed on these jobs , but will place you on the lower payed hard to fill positions I have seen them do this time and time again .. STAY CLEAR OF ROBERT HALF IF YOU ARE NOT THE RIGHT DEMOGRAPHIC BACKGROUND..... read more

Worst ever. They have no urgency and send you crap leads... The initial interview was arrogant and a waste of time-no jobs landed. read more

RH was good to work for at first but then I asked for the money that I was told I'd receive. They then refused to release it to me until I finally got a resolution. RH then told me no hard feelings, since I'm only following through on what I was promised. After that, RH stopped helping me find work and has denied me for positions that I'm well qualified for. I'm unsure who is running this company, but I wouldn't say it's a smart move on their part. Actalent's however has been great, maybe work with them instead. read more

I worked with several different recruiters, each of which communicated poorly and without consistency. I was unable to even get a single interview after 2 months of working with this company, while I felt my experience and qualities were more than adequate. For me, the worst was the inconsistent communication and outright ignoring of my calls and e-mails for days and even weeks. I would not recommend this company. read more

I am sad to share an experience. This company has been unbelievably difficult and dishonest to work with. They place temp candidates on full time hire jobs, charge excessive fees as far as I'm concerned. They don't have any skin in the game for your business at all. These guys coached a candidate they placed to stay for 90 days to stay and had them interview with other firms while working for our company! They could not care less you or business. The employers are paying you not the candidates. From a business owner to others out there STAY AWAY FROM THESE LIARS. Save the money go to indeed that's pretty much the quality of their candidates anyway. read more

Friendly, professional, and efficient. They get things done at Robert Half! What I really loved most about this agency is that they communicate with their other branches as well as co-workers. I initially interviewed with RH Legal (over Skype, which was very convenient) and then was approached with opportunities by multiple people including some from OfficeTeam. I heard from RH much more often than any other recruiting agency I worked with. They worked really hard to try to place me and I appreciate that. I turned down a few positions because of planned travel. In the end, Victoria Firestone had a great position for me at a really cool company. That's where I am now. Victoria has been great to work with - she's easy to reach and has followed up regularly. Their timesheet entry website is easy to use. If you run into trouble, they are super responsive and easy to get ahold of. Highly recommended! read more

Poor communication skills. The recruiter refuses to communicate--nonresponsive recruiter lacking the ability to articulate any potential issues regarding employment. There's a powerful demographic bias. read more

Bad experience with company. They do not treat contractors that well. Recruiters will randomly leave messages for jobs and when you attempt to return it, they never call back or come to the phone. Process needs better organization. Note: contractors are human and deserve some respect read more

I used this company in New Jersey for temp work 4 years ago and had a perfectly fine experience. Since I've been in San Diego I've been in communication with this company for about 2 1/2 months now and I haven't been given one assignment. I am a veteran, have a degree in management science, and a pretty good resume. I find it hard to believe it takes this long to find an assignment for someone with my credentials who has expressed their need for work. I have left various emails and voicemails for my point of contact at the company Ms. Firestone who occasionally returns correspondence when she gets around to it. I'm currently in communication with someone from headquarters regarding this. I'm just wondering if anyone else has had a similar experience with this company -possibly someone of my demographic. If so please inbox me so this can be addressed by the proper authorities. UPDATE: 2/15/17 I have been contacted by the VP of Office Team and he is addressing the situation. I am glad to see upper management is concerned. UPDATE 3/17 Well Gretel, I have reached out multiple times which is why I'm writing your company this very negative review. Since the VP contacted me, I was contacted by Victoria the following day and offered two positions both of which did not meet the salary expectations that I asked for. One of them was a Spanish-speaking only position and she knew that I did not have bilingual skills. The next day I received a phone call from your La Jolla location offering me a position that I actually wanted, however I was told they chose someone else and would be contacted about future positions which never happened. No thanks to your organization I have my own employment which pays exactly what I wanted to be paid in the first place. I will make sure that all my acquaintances know not to waste their time with your unprofessional company and you clearly you are not an equal opportunity employer. I will continue report your organization until it is addressed by a reprimanding authority. read more

I don't know why people have had such bad luck with OfficeTeam. My experience with working with them has been nothing but positive. As soon as I uploaded my resume, someone immediately contacted me for an interview and placement. I was ultimately placed in a temp for hire position at a company thanks to the Downtown branch. Thanks to them, I worked at a wonderful office for four years. I credit my being able to find work through this temp agency. I've tried to work with other companies such as Kelly Services, Appleone, and TLC Staffing and none of them gave me the time of day. And this was after sending in my resume, emailing them directly, applying for jobs through their website, and trying to call their offices. OfficeTeam at least sat down with me and gave me a chance to explain what I was looking for. I highly, highly recommend if you are looking for office work to give Office Team a chance. I recommend them to all my friends! read more

I've worked with Robert Half for over 2 years now in the Santa Barbara branch and San Diego (downtown) branch. The staff in San Diego has been extremely friendly, personable, and helpful! I've had a great experience dealing with Jody Chen in particular and what I was really impressed with was the excellent communication between not only me, but with her team and other branches in the area. When Jody didn't directly have any opportunities for me, she sent my info over to RH Legal as well as her contacts at other branches, looking for the best place for me. She has even followed up with me after my initial assignment ended and has been trying to find the right opportunities matching my preferences and capabilities. I am extremely thankful and pleased to work with her. read more

Signed up through their app and even walked into their America Plaza office to schedule to meet with an actual recruiter--almost TWO WEEKS ago! Never heard back from a recruiter either by phone, FaceTime or Skype (which the receptionist informed me that they do now). They do, however, continue to flood my email with useless emails. read more

I've temped quite a bit. I've worked for several agencies. They all have their quirks especially because as a temp you have two bosses but neither one of them even pretends to care about your well-being. This company was a disaster from the start. I temped for them almost two years ago. Their onboarding was murky. It was all online. I got several different emails asking for different things and they sent them every day until you completed the paperwork. It just created confusion. A follow up call would have sufficed. Only after all the paperwork was done did they tell me that I could have come to the office to fill out paperwork. Which would have been perfectly fine. I negotiated my pay which should be a contract between me and them only. Turns out they charged the company I temped for more and put it on me. The company told me later that Robert Half told them I had accused them of misrepresenting the job. It's the temp agency's fault if they didn't gauge an appropriate fee. Instead of eating the difference and keeping a client. They gouged the client company and lost a client for ever. I will never temp for RH every again. Luckily I don't need to. read more

Another waste of time temp service. Made an appointment, tested for two hours, and was then told that I was only eligible for file clerk jobs! WTF!! I've been an administrative assistant for over 30 years, and was making $22 with San Diego City Schools. No temp services for me! read more

Not very good. I went here and tested and interviewed and was told there was some openings, but i never got a call from them. Someone from a different office team office called and said they would send my resume to an employer for a temp assignment they had and never heard back from them either. Other staffing agencies are usually more on top of things. Felt like my interview/testing was a waste of time. read more

I have worked with Brittany at Robert Half downtown San Diego for over a year now. She cares about me as a client and works hard to match us with just the right candidate. read more

Jody and Madalynn are very helpful, professional and kind!

I moved to San Diego in June of 2014 without a job and figured it wouldn't be hard to find one with my background...needless to say it was. After a few months of no bites on my resume, I sent my resume to 12 temp agencies looking for work. Office team downtown was the only place to find me work. My primary contacts were Sabrina and Victoria. Both are hard workers and their communication skills are top notch. An example is they had a position open and Sabrina called me, at the time I was away from my phone so she left a message. Then Victoria called and left me a message and Sabrina sent a text as well. They really want to find you a position. When one of my temp assignments ran out they already had another one set up the following week for me. My advice for anyone looking for work and contacting office team is to be patient. If you visit them on a Monday, you won't have a position that afternoon. It will take time as they want to find the best fit for you. I have nothing but praise for Office Team, Sabrina and Victoria. If you're in need of work, calling them is the smartest decision you can make. read more

I signed up for officeteam in February. I did check in mostly by email just about every week. I told them i needed something asap. I got rude emails and calls saying i wasn't checking in. But i was. I even called and emailed them my new number the day i got it. I mentioned i didn't have a computer. And was told i needed to fix my resume but nothing else. I repeated that i had no computer and they acted like they didn't know. I got nothing job wise until the beginning of April. They made it seem like it was a definite hire position. Something that would include a higher rate of pay after I'd be hired on. So I accepted it. But then when i got there I quickly learned that this hire position would take years to get hired on. So i called and asked about a pay rate increase. They kinda got rude and said basically it's what I agreed to and if i didn't like it they'd refill it with someone else. So i did it. But continued to look elsewhere for a job. Overall, very unhappy with the level of customer service and honesty. I was trying to get a job, i didn't expect the rudeness over and over again. I've worked with other locations of the Robert Half company. This one does not do it justice. Only reason they get two stars is because i put in notice on a Wednesday and by Friday they had a replacement and i didn't have to speak to them again. Its mostly due to the ease of being able to walk away. read more

I have to say that Elizabeth Wilks and the rest of the OfficeTeam really helped me out in a bad time. I was having a rough couple of years in terms of finding employment but within weeks of signing up with OfficeTeam they found me a job at a great software company. Elizabeth was my representative and was with me every step of the way - encouraging and congratulating me while checking in regularly to make sure I was okay with my job. I don't want to overdue it but I finally felt things were going to work out. Thanks guys. :) read more

Ms. Firestone was absolutely amazing throughout my entire process with Robert Half. She was extremely dilligent and compassionate throughout her entire time communicating with me and was very accomodating and humble at the same time. I strongly recommend anyone who needs work to go to Robert Half and I couldn't imagine being helped any better Thanks again! read more

I am so happy that I was able to find such an incredible group of people at OfficeTeam with RobertHalf! I have really found just the same excitement to help people get connected to jobs. They really want to help people be marketable for the best opportunity!! I was also impressed with the varying companies that they have. Really great assortment of different organizations!! Also, they want to really keep up and see how people are doing. :) That is amazing! I really feel that finding jobs is so much easier with OfficeTeam. Thanks Victoria for always helping me and now that I will be permanent through the company you guys connected me to I am grateful to say it was such a pleasure working with you guys!!! read more

I've worked with DT OfficeTeam for a couple of years now and they have always offered great job opportunities for me. They do a really great job with responding and situating you well by your level of experience and interest. Prior to working at my current job I had an unfortunate experience working for the City of San Diego (not through OfficeTeam) and contacted OfficeTeam immediately for a new job placement. They were able to place me within 1-2 weeks after resigning from the City job. OfficeTeam was and is very supportive and clearly shows once you meet with them in person or by phone. There are great opportunities for everyone in this company. Previously at my current job with OfficeTeam, I was filling in for a woman on maternity leave that was only a temporary position. Fortunately, this company I work with appreciated my hard work and decided to bring me on permanently to their team. I was thrilled especially since it was not a temporary to hire position. OfficeTeam placed me exactly where I fit in and I have never felt so comfortable and respected in a work environment. I recommend Jason Scoville. I hope this was helpful! read more

Accountemps is great!!!!! I just moved back to San Diego and I didn't work for 3 years. Accountemps gave me the chance I needed to prove myself. They placed me with an excellent company, and November 1st, I get hired on permanently. Thank you Accountemps for giving me a chance. Jason and Keir are great, very friendly and helpful. I will definitely refer others. read more

I am very happy with Office Team. They were very nice, welcoming and helpful from the first time they contacted me, specially Jason and Kelly. I have been working in a project in the field that I wanted and in the type of company I wanted. They also did follow up with me while working at the assigned company to make sure that I was happy there and check if I had any concerns. They have been a huge help and I will keep working with them in the future. read more

I have heard from 4 different recruiters that work at RH in pass year. The first 2 ended up going dark after I submitted a resume for a Sr Dir position. The next 2 on a different FT opportunity over stated salary passed all my personal info directly to the employer without telling me...where that employer proceeded to contact me unexpectedly while on vacation directly to negotiate salary and became angry when they couldnt low ball based on what Rh incorrectly told them i'd take. Very unprofessional and pulled a lot of bait and a switch and were crappy to work with. Ive heard this from other colleagues as well as friends in different industries so these guys are bottom of the barrel in tech and more. read more

I have worked with many recruiters, and Lizelle Justiniani is as good as it gets! She is extremely personable and thorough, does what she says she will, and really goes the extra mile to advocate on her clients' behalf. I had such a good experience with her that I was connected to Nicole, who supervises both the direct hire and temp placement teams. She was also incredibly encouraging and informative regarding my interest in working for the agency itself and made time for me as soon as I requested to speak with her. I recommend Robert Half Legal if you want the best chance of being placed in a job that's the right fit for you, maybe even within the agency! read more

Sent my resume for a job they had posted on a job site. Was called, went down to meet with a recruiter. There is blatant age discrimination with these people. I am 62, I don't look it and they looked down at me. Whatever happened to treating people with respect? At some point in your life; if you live long enough you will go thru the aging process. I am comfortable with my looks and would never think of having plastic surgery because some young recruiter thinks I am not good looking enough to work for a company. Stay away from these people................................ read more

Office team branch in La Jolla has truly been a blessing for my career and my family. I was making the transition from hospitality to the office. Since April they have made this goal possible by continously keeping me employeed through short term contracts. I even was offered a couple of permanent oppurtunities. They are the epitome of professionalism and and are so personable. From the front desk receptionist Susan, Will in Staffing Management, all the way to my personal Staffing Manager Stefany they are the best!! Kudos to their work and there efforts they not only care about the work that they do and provide but they have shown time and time agian they genuinely care about the goals of the people they are working with. Much love and respect to you all!! No matter what people say the fact that my family has had a roof and food to eat over the last 4 months is evidence that you guys do a fantastic job! God bless you and the work you do! Niki Novak Paida read more

When I moved here, I immediately set up an interview with Officeteam, as we have them back east and I had a good impression of them. My overall experience here in San Diego was middle of the road. Nothing was wrong with it but nothing was great about it either. I was left waiting a long time to get interviewed, which was kind of annoying, but the receptionist stayed on top of the guy and kept me posted, which was impressive and appreciated. I was left waiting again after I tested for a while, which really annoyed me because I was so tired from all the tests, but again the receptionist was very on top of the situation. I was there for almost 2 hours, between interviewing and testing. I was pretty exhausted by the end of it but wanted to get it all done at once. The man who interviewed me was friendly, apologetic about both waits and honest - he was straightforward about expected pay and positions and I really appreciated that. He seemed a little long-winded at times, but overall it was a pleasant interview. I felt we got along well and he read me well, which is most important. He seemed helpful and available. I was offered to interview to be a receptionist at Robert Half (Officeteam's parent company) but was waiting to hear back on a much better job so passed it up. They then called a week later to offer me a job but I had accepted said position already so I never found out what the offer was, despite some phone tag between me and the recruiter to do just that. So, I guess two offers in a week is good, but at least one of the positions was way under my skill level and I'm sure the pay was nominal. In this economy I was hardly surprised and couldn't hold it against them. I was aiming for an administrative level II or III position. I ended up in an entry-level admin job but the pay is decent and its a permanent position so I get benefits soon. And there's some room for growth, so hopefully I can move up to something more challenging. I competed against 20+ other people for the job, which tells you how dire the economy really is right now. So, again, overall not blown away but certainly not turned off and couldn't say anything negative. If I could give them a 3.5 I would. If I found myself looking for work again (knock on wood that I'm not!) I would definitely reactivate my account with them. read more

Robert Half is the best advocate you will find in your search for employment! My recruiter, Lizelle Justiniani, goes above and beyond in marketing me to her clients. She is always there for me -- whether to help me with my resume, or to lend a sympathetic ear. She's very communicative and always keeps in touch. I've worked with many, many temp agencies across the country: New York City, Detroit, Chicago, Los Angeles and others in San Diego, and no one beats Lizelle and the other folks at Robert Half. Another thing I love about them is they interviewed me over FaceTime which was a big plus for me. If you are looking for a temporary or permanent position, Robert Half, Lizelle, Kate and the others at Robert Half are the best! They will work hard for you! read more

Five Stars for being the best temp agency in town. Both Kelly and Liz at the Downtown Office Team rocked. I have been to several other temp agencies in San Diego, including most of the big ones....and I have to say that between the downtown office and the La Jolla office, this group BY FAR worked the hardest for me. After a 6 month break, I went and re-registered with them, and they still had all of my tests on file. While the testing process may be a bit long, it does help them place you accurately. It was just a short interview to get familiar with my goals, and then they were off! I got a phone call the same day from Kelly, and several more over the next week or so. I also started getting emails right away from other offices. You can use their website to find jobs, and you get a quick response when you apply. One of the things that I liked most was that they were pretty honest with me about what I did and did not qualify for. They seem to know the employers really well, and can tell if you would be a good fit or not. Really.....the job market is tough right now. I'm well qualified, and it has still been tough. Register with these professional recruiters, and they will do much of the hard work for you! It took them about 2 weeks, and they found me a great position that may be full time one day. read more

I signed this branch of OfficeTeam a year ago and they only found me two jobs in the interim, despite my two master's degrees, one from the University of Chicago. The first job, about midway through, was a one or two week gig as a receptionist at a car dealer (which I had to turn down due to other obligations). The second was a temp-to-hire low-grade administrative job at a university replacing someone with only a high school diploma. The person's cubicle in which I worked was so dirty that it gave me allergy attacks that led to a severe migraine around lunchtime on the third day, from which I could barely move when I went home at lunch to recover. I sent my supervisor an e-mail explaining, but I was so incoherent with pain that I could communicate no further. OfficeTeam called me to say I was let go about an hour later. I went to the ER that night and was in the hospital for two days. I still have yet to get the items I left at the office back, which they said they could get for me. Neither they nor my employers showed any concern for my health, and I never received any breaks other than lunch while employed. My employers lied and said I was taking an hour and a half lunch breaks the first two days, and OfficeTeam believed them and docked my salary. Finally, they demanded that I give them a five star review on Yelp as soon as I had successfully interviewed for the second job. I am very disappointed because I had a quite successful experience with the OfficeTeam in Allentown, PA, and with LaSalle temporary services in Chicago. read more

If I could give no stars I would. I spoke to Brittnie the very first time I contacted Office team and then set up an interview with Jody. They sent me the assessment tests which I completed right away. Jody said there was a position I would be a good fit for. After many emails and attempts to contact either of them over the phone to follow up, their receptionist always said they were unavailable. I contacted their corporate office to complain and received an email back stating that someone would contact me. No one ever contacted me. The last Time I heard from Brittnie she said she wanted to clear up any miscommunication and was very clear that I no longer should follow up and they would contact me if anything came up. They continuously said they have been filling positions that I did not qualify for. Horrible experience. Don't wait on them to help you find employment. I myself am a recruiter and go above and beyond to stay in touch with my employees and help them as much as possible. Very unprofessional place! read more

Office Team is great! The process was very easy and Juan set me up with an awesome job in a field that I told him I preferred. He also touches base with me every week to see how my assignment is going and if I am still enjoying it. Juan is always available if I have any questions. He and his partner Jason are wonderful. read more

Office Team a Robert Half Company (staff) attended and assisted us in our first Job Readiness Workshop. I was impressed with the professionalism of the staff representing this agency. Their knowledge in the administrative field and current employment opportunities was very valuable to our graduates. They were thorough in conducting interviews and provided essential feedback to our students/ graduates. 5 stars is the highest on Yelp scale but I really want to give them 10. read more
