Bonney Staffing

It depends on which office you work at as far as how your experience will be.  I worked in Windham where the manager had great knowledge of the industry and great rapoire with the client companies but people skills with applicants and employees needed improving.  Since I left in June, 2014, the manager is no longer there so I am hopeful this situation will improve.  The other staff members are very strong and efficient so with the right manager, this office will be awesome!  The manager's are responsible to provide training.  The database system used is Avionte which is quite an extensive system.  I was provided one day of training by the human resource person who has great teaching skills and knowledge.  She taught me processes on Avionte, how to do safety and orientation, how to do the daily reports from Avionte/Excel, how to create and update ads on the website and on jobs-in-maine, and how to verify references.  Occasionally, I got assistance from the Front office coordinator or staffing supervisor - this was so much appreciated.  They, too, were struggling with the management style and how it affected them doing there job effectively.

I learned what a staffing company does...it is more extensive than most people would realize, but it is satisfying work in that you are helping people find a job and you are helping client companies staff with good quality employees.

The hardest part of the job is that there is more than 8 hours of work that must be accomplished in 8 hours as you are hourly paid as a Talent and Training Coordinator.  I think this is very common in a lot of industries, not just staffing companies.

A typical day starts with a morning meeting, then into interviews, client servicing, running background checks, recruiting, searching databases, offering work, presenting candidates, attending events, providing feedback to employees, running reports, tracking weekly progress in Excel spreadsheets, delegating tasks, payroll, and much more. 

I've learned many HR functions, leadership skills, and keeping organized in a fast paced/deadline driven environment.

I've enjoyed the relationships I have built in a small, close knit office.

The hardest part of this job is that every day is a challenge making fast decisions, and managing multiple priorities, all equally important, and all time sensitive. 

The most enjoyable part of my job is finding work for people who might not otherwise been given a chance, making clients happy and coming back to us time and time again. Every day is a rewarding experience, knowing I can help make a difference.

Bonney is a temporary employment agency offering different and interesting assignments.  They have a helpful staff.  Enjoyed assignments and am available for more.  No ping pong table anywhere.  Typical day was learning something new and also finding I did have experience to do most other tasks, feeling confident. 

Maine Staffing offered me more medical office jobs which I enjoyed and was more within my realm of experience.  However, I was given menial tasks at the Dialysis Clinics that I did not appreciate.  Portland Gastroenterology was clerical and very routine but as a temp, I was not included in the loop for updates to procedures. I was very productive at that position and felt satisfaction from that.

I recently found a permanent job through Bonney Staffing and I couldn't be happier. The staff helped me navigate my time as a temp, and provided me with ample support and useful information. I never realized how useful temporary staffing was until I walked in to Bonney and from the first time that I was in the office, the staff was more than amazing in helping me to find employment. Bonney also recently started offering health benefits which would have been a huge help to me while I was working as a temp! Overall, I could tell that the Staff members loved their job, and it was great to see people of all ages and experience levels being helped by Bonney. If you are looking for work you should DEFINITELY check out BONNEY!

A typical day of working for a temp agency is that you work for eight or ten hours a day with some over time.  You work with your hands most of the time.  It was great when I was younger but when I got older it lost its appeal. What I learned from this company is using assorted hand tools, being able to work as team, and assorted skills for assembly lines. The hardest part of the job is the job security. At the drop of a hat you could be moved to another work site.  The most enjoyable part of the job is when you leave for the day you know you created something for a customer or another business.

The Branch I worked with are good people but as it's a temp agency you don't have secure jobs. Though if they know you looking for permanent full time position with another company then you may not get much work placements. Even tho I haven't handed in my Week notice which is required I was left hanging time to time and they refused to give me some other work places. So they kept me with one company when they needed me. 

This in turn made my finances into a mess. If they have a week notices then it would of been plenty of enough time for them to find a replacement. So be careful what you say and keep it to your self much as possible. 

Bonney helped me find a job.
The job description varied from the actual job at the client.
The client changed the job tasks and requirements frequently making the job difficult at times.
Contacted Bonney about the irregularities yet the HR at the client stated the job was changing and demanded more from me. The HR at the client stated I was doing an exceptional job yet still needed to add additional tasks and conform. 
My representative at Bonney tried to work with me to reach a happy medium all the while the client expected more and made the job tasks and environment difficult. 
I started seeking other employment due to the level of stress and poor communications at the client.

I had an amazing opportunity to work and learn at BONNEY. I enjoyed my peers, clients, and employees. However, as a BONNEY employee, expectations are high. The pace is unbelievably fast, and the stress level is enormous. BONNEY is more apt to use people in a salaried position to get all of the expected work done rather than hire additional staff to take on some of the work load. In my experience this business is savvy and has great customer service, yet operates on a monetary basis carrying less regard to personal connection. I feel as though management could operate better.

Enjoyed my time at Bonney Staffing although I was on there for a short period of time due to personal reasons. The team that reported to me we all great people, young women who were starting out int whir professional or had been there for a few years. They all had time on me and showed me the ins and outs. My two superiors had both been there since very 15 years and I got a long with them great. I appreciated my time learning from them about the industry as a whole as well as Bonney Staffing. 

Working at Bonney Staffing was a very good experience. The staff was very pleasant and my manager worked with my pay requirements and schedule needs to get me long term temporary assignments. I was relocating out of state and did not know when my home would sell so this type of employment fit my need. They do offer health insurance, but I could not afford it, which was probably the most difficult part of working there. I would definitely recommend others to consider this temporary agency.
