Aventure Staffing and Professional Services

I had a meeting set up to discuss an accounting job.  I took time off work, changed clothes, and went to their office.  The lady I was to meet with was not there.  Another lady said she could help me.  She said they had filled the accounting job.  In my 30 year career, I never had that happen.  They didn't interview all candidates before filling the job, and did not even call me to tell me that they filled the job.  The lady said they had an Internet Sales job, and I said that I was not interested.  It looked like the bait and switch trick to me.  Get me in the office with the promise of an accounting job, than switch to a sales job.  I swore I would never do business with them again, but months later applied for a Shipping and Receiving job.  When I met with them, they again mentioned the Internal Sales job.  I agreed to interview for that job.  They set up the interview, but when I interviewed with the client, the job was to put part in boxes.  I told them that I was there for an Internal Sales job, and they said they did not need anyone for Internal Sales.  Again, the bait and switch trick.  I sent the representative from Aventure a note, and she did not even respond to my email.  I never did get an an answer as to how she messed up the interview.  Like a friend of mine said, if they can't set up an interview, I would not trust them to do anything right.

a typical day at work: consists of repetitious hand and body movements.

what you learned: gained experience with robot welders.

management: client supervisors slow to tell you are doing a good job but quick to end your assignment for no reason. Supervisors talk down to employees and show no respect.  


your co-workers: were generally friendly and helpful.


the hardest part of the job: dealing with client supervisors.

the most enjoyable part of the job: learning new skills and the steady pay.

I am fortunate to have flexible hours, while still earning the income i desire. Management is great - helpful, knowledgeable, and genuinely concerned about the welfare of employees. They are experts at finding the right fit for their clients and in a very timely manner.  I recommend Aventure Staffing to anybody and everybody looking to get back  or those who are just beginning their work careers.

Working through Aventure staffing can be a challenge. The agents are wonderful and helpful, but the job market isn't always the best. They do what they can and keep you updated. Also, sometimes their clients aren't the best once you're in the position.

Working for Aventure, however, is a pleasure. All the coworkers are wonderful and polite and friendly. They make the job fun and easy.

Aventure is a staffing company that looks to place people with other companies. They put you on for Temp jobs that could possibly lead to a permanent position. The usual pay was 10.00 an hour for every job no matter where you were placed. They often have more jobs in Madison than in the Norfolk are and are not very good at finding jobs that fit the person looking for a job.

An expert level of knowledge in all full lifecycle recruiting components including, but not limited to, sourcing, qualifying, networking, assessing, legal, job analysis, wage and salary trends, relationship management, and due diligence.

Adventure Staffing starts as a good employer but quickly deteriorates. The more you give, the more they take. The work-life balance they promote only applies to corporate employees and the branch manager. Training and development is non-existent. If you need a paycheck, this can be a short-term gig to earn some cash but if you want a career, stay away. 

Decent work for the amount of pay received. (may change due to jobs open). The job was fun, but provided little in terms of being able to advance. Conflicts in schedules were a burden at times.
