The manager (Yoany) was so unprofessional her words to me after I asked her why my resume wasn't submitted was "I don't have to answer to you". It was so snotty! I told her what I thought and then I asked to speak to someone higher than her. I spoke to the VP and he was no better. I'm just trying to find something steady for myself just like everyone else and there was no need for their ever so huge shovels full of unprofessionalism and demeanor. The VP ended up apologizing for her but, that didn't teach her anything and she probably doesn't even think that they're serious when they talk to her about our conversation and her approach. If anyone is interested in hearing the recorded phone calls, if it'll help you make a decision on whether or not you want to go to them or not then feel free to let me know. The level of unprofessionalism is worse than it sounds.

Much like the other reviews I was asked to come into the office to process because I qualified for several positions.

Woman told me she would submit my resume to several positions I was interested in. 

CALLED - NO ANSWER & NO CALL BACKS TO VOICE MAILS...

EMAILS - ILL LOOK INTO IT AND ILL CHECK ON THAT WERE THE RESPONSES I RECEIVED..

I finally got called and instead of asking the client for what I was asking per hour, She over priced and asked for $5 more per hour than I was looking for... 

I went to the interview and the job should have easily been mine, but because she was REACHING they hired someone asking for less.  Oh and she had the nerve to call me complaining cause I called the company to find out if they had hired someone...

If she knew how to return a phone call I wouldn't have had to call the company...

People go to these companies looking for work, not to be waiting around for recruiters to call WHEN THEY FEEL LIKE IT....

LK Jordan is a temp/placement service which placed me at a manufacturing company related to the oil and gas industry,  I was placed as a Billing Lead to organize the billing department which had gotten several months behind in order to get the department caught up.  

While the culture at LK Jordan was competitive in a relaxed way, they seemed to always be looking out for my best interest.  The company I was assigned to had a very stressful environment due to the owner's limited business operations experience and his office manager's lack of true management skills.

The hardest part of the job was dealing with field operations who did not provide the necessary information in order to bill their work.

The most enjoyable part of the job was working with the other people in the billing department.

They talk a big game but no action. I was pressured into coming into the office so I can " be processed" with them for placement for a management position, they made it seem imperative that I come in immediately because the employer was scheduling interviews the following week, its been 2 wks and I never heard back from them, emailed the recruiter and was told he hadn't heard back, gave him another lead on a position that I was very well qualified for with an employer they claim to work with and was told he would submit my resume but if I don't hear from him in a week, to go ahead and direct apply. I quickly realized they are complete waste of my time. Don't bother I had more offers by direct applying for positions. I am an RN, really how hard could it be to place a nursing professional

L.K. Jordan & Associates is a staffing agency that places you with job assignments that meets your skills and qualifications. What I liked most about this agency is that they really seemed to want you to succeed. I was able to take computer assessments to test my skill in various computer programs. I believe they even offered some training in the areas where you lacked proficiency. I only had one assignment with L.K. Jordan, that lead to permanent employment with the assigned company; however, I was able to see during a visit to the office that they were passionate about keeping people working. If an assignment didn't work out, as it hadn't for a guy that was there, they were right on finding him a better fit.

This is not a great company, they do not care about the applicants, recruiters never answer their phone, never handle their issues-just pass it along to the next department to be dealt with. There is no leadership, management is horrible. The manner in which they handle situations is unfair. No one knows what they are doing and they have no trainer, no operating procedures. Everyone pretty much works how they want and no branch is on the same page. The turnaround rate is ridiculous, no one seems to stick around. 9 people in and out in less than 1 year, and that’s not including all branches, just one. Recruiters all speak bad about each other.

Stressful day that a job for the day does not start until 10 o'clock and you only work 6 hours a day

I have had an awful experience with the Corpus Christi office. They do not follow through as they say they will. You have to hound them to get any progress at all. One person there was unprofessional enough to not even respond to my email or phone messages at all after she explicitly said she would work with me. The second person I was set up with has been giving me the runaround. Don't waste your time here. Try another staffing agency.

They also aren't organized. A woman walked out of the office when I first went because she had been waiting an hour to be seen after her appointment time.

I was hurt at work and the company I was at did everything to try and keep me from reporting it but after hour of them to try stopping the bleeding I was finally sent to doctor and told if I didn't take anything for pain I could go back to work  but the next day I was told I wouldn't be going back and was led on I tried to get them to send me to any other job but was slowly getting better but I still can't communicate with anyone there horrible place horrible business practices if you work there don't get hurt are report it because there is no help from them.
