If you're looking for a temp employment opportunities or if you're an employer looking for temp work employees then I would highly recommend The Greysmith Companies.

The office itself is located within a refurbished factory. you have to do quite a bit of walking once you get into the building as it is on the 2nd floor and the hallways are long and winding. great if you use a step counter but bad if you have mobility issues and/or have adaptive equipment.

be sure to let them know in advance if you have trouble with stairs/walking long distances as the facility doesn't have public

Waste of time. They never followed up with me although they said they would be in touch "a couple of times a week". I would touch base with them, they apologized for not following up every time but never changed. Then a great sounding job came through, but when I asked questions about it they said "let me get back to you" and never did. I have no idea how this place stays in business. Don't waste your time.

Do not let Alex's interrogation method intimidate you, she is a unaccommodating relentless nag who disguises her behavior with pretty words like "open and honest" to make you feel like you are not cooperating. She fires questions at you with a smug tone and even after answering she'll continue to ask the same question over and over. She ignores obvious verbal cues and has no friendly qualities whatsoever.

Awful services. Most recruiting companies around here are not that great, but this company takes the cake. Completely unprofessional and downright a waste of time.

At first seemed like a good company. I was placed with a retiree benefits company and really enjoyed my time there and the atmosphere from the other people working there. The contract ended after open enrollment ended. That is when my troubles with Greysmith started. My coordinator, Rachel Peters, was never available and scheduled me for any interview but never send the confirmation of the interview including date, time, company name and address, so as a result I missed the interview. She never responded to any of my emails including the request for the interview information nor the email I sent

After I graduated college I was applying to jobs. I saw a position open with the Greysmith Companies for their company. I was invited to complete an in person interview with Jenna P. At the end of the interview, I was told that I was not the right person for that job but they have many jobs currently on their desk that I would be a match for. I was a bit annoyed because I felt that there was no job with their company, but this was a ruse to get more candidates in the door for their business.

Nonetheless, being a recent college graduate, I thought that it could not hurt to have them search for

I submitted my resume online, went into the office, filled out a lot of paperwork, had an interview with Zach P., and he COMPLETELY blew me off. To the point where he didn't even email me the Excel test that he promised he would. Haven't heard from him and its been over 3 weeks.

Thank you for wasting my time and energy.

They won't help you find a job, just a big waste of time in my opinion!

It is amazing to me sometimes how accurate reviews are and how we should all pay attention to them. As humans, we generally will only take the time out of our days to overly praise, but more likely complain about someone or something.

That being said, here is my complaint.

After posting my resume on monster.com last week, I received a phone call from Jenna at The Greysmith Company. She seemed pleasant enough and eager to find a possible "temp to perm" job for me. I found it odd she didn't know a lot of my work history since she stated she had my resume, but I let that slide

Worst experience ever! If I could give them less than a star I would. I decided to try this agency after trying to get a job on my own. I explained what I was looking for and how much I wanted in salary. I was told that it shouldn't be a problem with my experience. I was then told that I can get an interview with a local company but not for the position or salary I wanted. I informed the rep (who I think her name was Julie) that was not something I wanted and she knew it. She yelled at me and said I should go to the interview for practice. I agreed reluctantly...she then put me on hold and

Met up with Jenna had a sit down interview. Seems optimistic about this company. She said that she had a position for me. The company didn't get back to her until 2 weeks in and she neither did she. Finally she got got back to me because I received a nice little package in the mail saying they were going to terminate or not hire me because of my background. They decided to do a defendant search and had the wrong person. Spoke to the manager and he said we will look into it. Finally called again and that's when I spoke to her about the position. She said that the company spelt into two

Greysmith agent, Jennifer B, left me a voice message one day saying that there are two potential positions that I am suitable for after checking out my resume from Monster. I recently accepted a job offer by myself by the way, didn't go through them. She asked me to meet her at the Whipple street location. They asked me for a bunch of information, e.g. SSN, signing W-2, proof of working in the United States. I rejected all because I am not comfortable providing any personal information to companies like this without even having any interviews with the potential employer. I only showed her

I give this agency two stars because their business model is geared more towards their clients, not their employees.

I'm not unhappy they didn't find me a job; markets dwindle, and the right position isn't always out there right when you want it. In fact, I recently got a job offer from my own search, even though I've been working with multiple employment agencies.

What bothered me is all of their clients want to hire temp-to-perm as quickly as possible for long-term positions, which feels pressuring and rushed to me. They wouldn't even let me wait a few days to meet

At first this company seems to want to always help you look for employment. After the first interview I found that my case worker lacked any sense of ambition. when you call in every week to check in the caseworker is always on lunch or busy. They claim to have never received the voicemails which is contrary to what is said by the main operator. After having this company try to find me a job for 4 months, I received no phone call with any job opportunities. When I finally spoke to my case worker she seemed offensive that, I held her to the standards of her doing her job. I recommend other staffing

I one day received a random call on my cell phone and decided to answer it. A young man called me claiming he found my resume on CareerBuilder, that I had an excellent resume, and he would like to have me come down to the office to meet with him one on one and fill out paper work. Since at the time I was still unemployed and I had nothing to do, I figured I'd give it a shot.

I went down the the place, I filled out the paper work, and I noticed right away I pretty much was a zero match for any of the jobs or skills they were asking for. I have never done accounting, payroll, or anything
