Randstad Canada

DISGUSTING treatment of people. I was asked to perform several ridiculous tests all for Microsoft to ‘prove’ my skills. I am an Administrator with TEN YEARS experience. Anyway. When I went to do the testing, the software (likely from the 90’s) was so bad that it literally skipped questions and scored me «0» accordingly. I got less than 70% on all of my tests, and thanks to this piece of actual garbage testing software, I won’t be considered for roles as I should! NOW I REMEMBER why I stopped working with gross temp agencies like this in the first place.
…but the above isn’t even the best part! The BEST part was when I walked into the Bay St. office and sat there for 10 minutes listening to the most unprofessional recruiters GOSSIPING about the Kardashian’s and other celebrities that should be shot. Randstad employees were sitting there speaking at FULL volume about non work related matters. How do you people have a job and I don’t?
Disgusting.

Do not waste your time with Randstad — if you’re one of the lucky ones that they actually help get a placement, consider yourself very lucky.
I am getting a feeling that there is discrimination within this organization.
Many times, you will be emailed about a position and then when you apply for it. They insist you’re not fit for the position. So why are you wasting your time emailing me?
