Do not waste your time with this staffing agency. These people are rude and inconsiderate.

Kelly was amazing from start to finish. She followed up to check in, let me know of updates and just made the whole hiring experience very smoothly. Thank you again for your service! read more

I had a wonderful experience with Ultimate Staffing - so much so that I asked if THEY were hiring! Luckily for me, the excitement was mutual and they happened to have just opened up a position, so they hired me! It's been great so far, so I wanted to share my story to inspire anyone looking for work who may be unsure about whether or not to reach out to Ultimate (in my experience the answer is YES!)... I was initially called in for an interview after responding to a ZipRecruiter ad, and met with Luke. We hit it off and I left feeling good about my prospects - I had resigned from my previous job almost a month before, and was starting to get a little antsy, but after our meeting I felt reassured. Come to find out, Luke is the manager of this whole branch and still takes the time to meet with candidates, which I really respect. I'd never worked with a staffing firm before and didn't know what to expect, but Luke put me at ease by walking me through Ultimate's process. At the end of the interview I recorded a brief "Video Select" interview video which he intended to show to employers, which I thought was pretty cool because I wouldn't have to drive all over town for as many introductory interviews. As I left he told me he was going to submit me for a $16-$18/hr Customer Service position he thought would be a good fit, which sounded good to me. However, the next day, I called him and explained that after some deep thought, I'd realized that I wanted to go into talent recruitment myself - I told him how impressed I was with Ultimate and asked if they had any internal positions. Things moved quickly from there and I started about 2 weeks later! One of my favorite things about working with Ultimate is their special focus on making every experience remarkable. I love coming into work every day and helping to create those great experiences for others, and I feel fulfilled by my career. If that's what you're looking for, I highly recommend you reach out to the Ultimate team! read more

One of their staffing agents said that they would no longer work with me if I file a report with the US Department of Labor. I have since been contacted by someone at the executive level; however, have also just been made aware that when requesting an agent's supervisor she gave me the contact information of someone she supervises instead. This means, that this person was included in email correspondence wrongfully and with complete disregard of my well-being. I sent three pdf's to the executive I'm in contact with that contain the emails in which one of the staffing agents gave me the name and contact information of the person she supervises rather than her supervisor. He stated that he was not able to read the attachments. In my opinion, I find it very sad that the staffing agents have such disregard for the reputation of their company and the reputation of it's executives. Sadly, due to the depth of dishonesty at this company, they have a score of "F" on Better Business Bureau also. It's amazing to me that the staffing agents value lies and bullying more than the future of their employer. The woman who gave me the name and contact info of the person she supervises rather than that of her supervisor is Marilu Pena. The person who threatened me after stating I was going to contact the US Department of Labor is Marilu Pena. read more

I was placed from Ultimate Staffing by May, who has been extremely helpful and supportive. I believe she gave me a good starting ground and left the rest up to me. My contract was extended, I was promoted, and received a raise after two months. May helped push for that raise given the extra responsibility I was taking on. She went to bat for me, which made the negotiation process more comfortable. I'm not sure if I'll end up in a permanent role at my current assignment, but if not, I'm confident that Ultimate will set me up in a favorable role, in which I can excel, in the future. read more

Best staffing company ever! I walked in on a Monday and was set up with a position within the next few days. Marilou is a dream! She is so on point and really cares about her clients! The entire team is super warm and friendly. I'm currently working for a great company that I actually have a huge deal of interest in!! Love where you work and it won't seem like a job! read more

I'm sure there are better staffing agencies out there. If you value your time, don't bother coming here. I came in for an "interview" and already the recruiter was telling me they don't have jobs for what I am looking for. I should have known already that this is a company that doesn't care to find people jobs. I was looking for any office jobs, HR, management positions. I followed up again next week and they still had no jobs for me. It was more the fact that the recruiter didn't seem like he wanted to help me that made me think this isn't a place of resource for me. Adios Ultimate Staffing! read more

First and foremost I just want to say thanks to the entire team that helped me land a GREAT job. Kathy literally stuck by my side through the entire process, from making follow up calls on my behalf to helping me get my typing speeds back up to par ( I was a little rusty). I couldn't have done it without them. Not only do I have a new job, I have a potential new career. Austin has a very tough job market and the team over at Ultimate Staffing help you stand out in a sea of people. read more

I moved to Austin texas and was in search for a new job, Ultimate Staffing found my resume on line and I am soooo glad they did. I worked with Kelly she is the best she really listened to what I was looking for in my job search and she found me my dream job I could be happier! It really pays to have a professional helping you with your job search it takes some of the stress off of your plate and they really know what there doing. I feel like Ultimate has a very good connection with many good companies and I would highly recommend their services, work with Kelly she is so fun to work with and she does a great job! read more

Being that I'm from Houston TX. I visited Rob back in February and Rob was pretty good at keeping contact with me for a bit but then he has left the company and now there is another girl there that took over his accounts. I tried calling her a few times when I found out that Rob was no longer there and never got a call back until I left 3 or 4 messages. When she did finally call me back the call was rushed and was more interested in getting off the phone then giving follow up questions. I kept her on the phone on purpose so that I can give her a clear understanding of what I'm looking for and all I got at the end was "ok". That was a bit more then 2 months ago and still yet to hear back from her. I wish Rob Clark was back because at least he kept up with me and replied to calls and emails. If Rob was still there I would've given Ultimate 4 stars. read more

Working with awesome staff such as Olivia who is professional, responsive and courteous really is important to me as an employee. The job assignment matched perfectly with my career goals and the pay rate also is very competitive. Ultimate Staffing Services is the flagship for an employment agency. read more

Not sure if Rebecca C. was qualified for the jobs they offer or what she has against the hard working team at Ultimate Staffing, but I have nothing but great things to say about my experience. They are kind and so very helpful. I was in a slump, out of work for some time and a friend recommended trying them out. Not only do I now have a job, but it is also a job I LOVE. If you need assistance looking for work, give Ultimate Staffing a try! read more

I relocated suddenly to the Austin area about 5 months ago from D/FW and had to find a new job. It was a really stressful time when I was looking on my own as I did not know the Austin area at all. Marilu (my recruiter) from Ultimate Staffing really saved me! The whole experience working with Ultimate was really enjoyable. Everyone is so nice and extrememly helpful. Everytime I called in, I was able to get a detailed update on the progress being made and contacts who were reviewing my information. During my initial meeting, Marilu asked me what I was looking for and really took note of what my needs were. She asked me to record a short video about myself and my skillset that she would send out along with my resume. Initially I was kind of skeptical about this as I have worked with many other recruiters in the past and none had ever done this before, but it really paid off!! The first position that Ultimate found for me was so much better than what I was even looking for. I gave a strict commute area in which I wanted a position in and a firm salary requirement and Ulimate not only met my requests, but actually surpassed my expectations. It took them a few weeks to find a match for me, but again I had strict requirements. I could not be happier with the service they did for me. My new employer really liked working with them as well. I have recommended others to use them and they have been happy. If needed, I will definately solicit their services again in the future! read more

Despite being registered over the years with this office and another Ultimate facility in a different part of the country, I have only been sent on one assignment. It was with a company that is known for a high turnover that they cater to. This customer is pretty much the only one they have, so have not been able to get any work beyond a short 3 week assignment. If you don't mind doing a limited placement with a churn and burn outfit, give it a try. If you want more than one job placement, go elsewhere. read more

I haven't had any luck with them and its been over two weeks since I completed the tests they assign to place employees. On the phone they didn't have any jobs available, however when I went in they had some data entry jobs available which I didn't qualify for because I cant type 55wpm (I'm at 40 wpm with a BS degree but that's not enough to get me a data entry job). The staff was friendly but I haven't heard back from them. I probably wont contact them again because they offered me jobs that were way too far away from my house. read more

Ultimate staffing lives up to its name. They provide the ultimate in professionalism, knowledge of the job market and the ability to offer a job match based on my skill-set. Marliu P. took the time to listen to my job wants and needs and asked the appropriate questions that delved into my past work experiences to provide the best search on my behalf. Marilu is genuine, kind, intelligent, personable, and a true professional. I appreciate her candor, insight, and enthusiasm! read more

This was my first experience using a staffing agency and I was NOT DISAPPOINTED with Ultimate Staffing. My recruiter, Marilu, did a phenomenal job with my first job match! She was responsive and courteous and made sure that I was comfortable with the job and organization she matched me with. I highly recommend Ultimate Staffing should you ever find yourself in need of a job! read more

I found Ledgent and Ultimate Staffing Services through a review I read through Yelp. It was very important to me to find an employment agency that was genuinely going to help me attain a job in this crazy economy. I have reached out to a few other agencies where I was quickly dismissed and never heard back with any potential opportunities. I have been urgently looking and finally decided to go back into seeking help from a staffing agency. I am in the beginning stages of working with Ledgent and so far have nothing but great things to say about my experience so far. Bianca, who was my initial contact, has been so great! She gave me some great advice and was shocked to see that with my professional experience and education background, that I have not heard from anyone. Aside from her help, I am eagerly waiting to see what her team can do for me! From what I hear, the newest member to join her team is very marketable and personable and can hopefully sell my experience and what I can offer to potential employers! Everyone so far I met, even if it was for a few minutes, were very genuine and professional. Keeping my fingers crossed ! read more

Marilu is awesome! She immediately got me hired at a prestigious company in Austin and I'm loving working for them! Contact Ultimate and ask for Marilu, she's got you covered! read more

I was contacted via LinkedIn by Marilu regarding a short term assignment she was helping a client fill. She was knowledgeable about the position and the company and after we met she submitted my resume to the client. When she called me to tell me I had been selected for the position, I explained that I had since interviewed for a permanent job and was going to need to wait a day for that outcome. She was very understanding and did not try to pressure me, which I found to be very professional. I ended up taking the temp job and I couldn't be happier with the service that I've gotten from Marilu and everyone else at this Ultimate Staffing office. read more

I wish I could give 6 stars! Marilu and Jessica are amazing! My entire experience was top notch from beginning to end. The entire office is a joy to work with. I was placed with a perfect job match so quickly, I couldn't be happier. Thank you! read more

I worked with Jessica H, who was very professional and extremely helpful. I thought she was very thoughtful in her consideration of jobs that she put to my attention, she really wanted to find a fit that would work for me and the company. I ultimately found work on my own, but during the interviews I found on my own, when I was asked what other jobs I was interviewing for, it helped to be able to name some really large, well respected companies. I think working with Jessica may have given me an edge against other candidates. read more

I met Marilu Pena at a job fair and was hesitant to even speak with her because I'd had bad experiences with staffing agencies. After speaking with Marilu, I felt a rapport with her. She made me feel like I had a lot to offer a number of companies which I hadn't felt in a long time. She was very supportive and very down to earth. She constantly kept in touch and was so great to work with. If you need a job go see Marilu! Marilu, you're very appreciated! read more
