Manpower

Absolutely good and fast. I dont know where these negative comments come from. But to me they did a real good job and the girl at front desk so professional as well.

Kimberly at the frontdesk is very kind and friendly. She was thoughtful and professional with the «folks» coming in. I was very comfortable sitting in the lobby. I spent some time with a recruiter named Dara. I would recommend her as she has more life experience then the average recruiter. Although she had specific clients that she was filling job placements for I felt like she was really in my corner as well. She spent 45 minutes prepping me for an interview and was disappointed when I didn’t get selected. She presented three different opportunities to me. It is a busy office. The only feedback that I would offer is when I notified her via email that I had accepted another job she didn’t respond. I realize that she is busy and I’m sure if I called her back up she would present more opportunities.

Applied thru manpower website a week ago for a position they had listed for a customer service representative. The recruiter, Jenny Rodriguez, called me five minutes, before they were closing when the first day. When I attempted to call back five minutes later the office was closed. I left a message. Next day no call back, till again five minutes before they were closing by the time I got to the call they were closed again! Strike 1 highly unprofessional, if someone calls you and leaves a message that they missed you’re call you should be able to get to them in a timely manner not five minutes before you’re office is closing. When I finally did get in contact with her she was nice at first then went into explain what the position was and for what company and then was rude and made fun of my resume (strike 2) I’ve never had anyone make fun of my resume! She then wanted me to explain my employment roles to her and my experience. First after you make fun of my resume, then I stated to her as I’m no longer interested in talking to you, that maybe the position won’t work out for me. You not knowing anything about me mind you! You don’t know me!!! Proceeded to say I maybe cutting myself short! Strike 3. Ok we’re done here! I’m not going to be treated that way by anyone! And clearly not a unprofessional recruiter from a temp agency who’s never met me! Clearly from first impression was not a good one! If you took the time and reviewed my resume and then called me in the morning or early afternoon so we could discuss in detail but phone tag I’m busy and I don’t have time and then for you to be little me. I’m sorry I don’t have time for games either! Don’t apply with manpower! And especially not with this girl! Unprofessional and childish.

I am a recent college graduate currently looking for entry-​level work and came here for a job fair in order to find work through this company. My interview lasted only a few minutes because they told me that they did not have any entry-​level positions available for me. I called this company beforehand, but they never told me that they only hired people with work experience. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have needed to come over to their headquarters for an interview. So thanks for wasting my time, manpower, when I could’ve made a road trip to Ventura and Oxnard to apply for staffing agencies that likely do far better work than your company does.
