I had a horrible experience working for your company. I filled my application out at the Savannah location in Pooler,GA on 6/3/13. I was told that my background check would have to be processed before any assignments were given. I waited three days, as instructed by the receptionist, before calling to see if my background had been processed. I was told at that time that it had not been received. 

I was contacted at 3:30 on Friday, 6/7/13 by Bernice, who told me that she had a shift available and inquired whether I was able to work. I asked her where the job was and how long it was for. She responded to me by saying that the shift was from 4:00 PM to 12:00AM. I informed Bernice that I would not be able to make it to the location until 4:45. Bernice told me that 4:45 was acceptable. 

After finishing my shift, which did not end until 2:30AM, I returned home. I was not given instructions to return to the work site. I attempted to make contact with the Pooler office on Saturday at 10:00 AM. No one answered the office phone and there was no option to reach anyone so I could confirm whether I needed to return Saturday night. 

I called the office two days later on Monday to inquire about an email that I had received. Bernice was very short with me and informed me that I would not be placed anywhere else because I did not return to work. 

I have primary employment overseeing logistical operations for a salvage company in Atlanta. I enjoy working temporary assignments to earn extra money. In my experience, people like Bernice are unable to accept responsibility for the mistakes they make and look to assign blame on the nearest person available. I have made several contacts with hiring managers in the Atlanta area in the manufacturing and industrial sector during various temporary assignments. I plan to contact them and relate my experience with SelecSource to ensure that they choose a more capable and professional staffing agency for any future contracts. 

These people are not helpful. They are scalpers. Shorted my first paycheck 5.5 hours then said it'd "be on my next check. No one told me the hours. The manager of the warehouse got fired a day after I started working there. Office ladies were rude. Hung up on me when I called. Gave me incorrect information about compensation saying it was 9/hr firm but when I got there the warehouse manager said no its by production. Took 25.00 out my paycheck for "supplies" and a mouth swab instant drug test that costs 1.00. Sent home because it wasnt busy two weeks in a row but pushed to work extra hard in the beginning of the week because there was "so much to do" It's slave labor and a scam. They take advantage of dumb and desperate people. STAY AWAY. Youre better off at Burger King.

The management was very rude, especially the warehouse manager was very rude and disrespectful.  They speak to you and treat you like children.  You only get one 15 minute break and a 45 minute lunch break when working 10 hours. If you voice your concerns, you're either suspended or fired. They fire people without reason.  They hire and fire people every week

One time, they closed down the restrooms as punishment because someone made the toilet overflow and made us use port-a-potties that were outside.  However, they have restrooms in the office area and we were not allowed to use those.

Develop recruiting strategies designed to identify qualified candidates through various recruiting tools
Evaluate candidates’ strengths compared with clients’ requirements by, evaluating, screening, and interviewing the candidate.
Completed necessary pre-employment processes including reference checks and background/drug tests.
Manage contract employees while on assignment. Assess and investigate contractor related problems, and administer performance counseling, coaching, and disciplinary measures when necessary.
Communicate effectively with others in order to create a productive and diverse environment.

On call for warehouse positions around the city that was very demanding. I learned that a permanent position was something that was needed at the time. The warehouses where great as I loaded and unloaded trucks, I love a good work out. Not being able to fully depend on these positions to stay open and work me full time was the hardest thing to swallow. My agent who helped me find work was very helpful throughout the duration of my time spent there. I enjoyed meeting new people and employers for future references.

Overall a typical day was not typical at all. From day to day I knew not what to expect on the assignment that I was on. I only knew to be present and accounted for, but I yet enjoyed the brief time I was there. There was not much training and only a week was given for you to grasp the work given. Being the fast learner I am I was able to grasp a hold on the job and stay a while longer than some of my associates. I did enjoy management on the assignment I was on. I found to fair and upbeat.

This staffing company at first seemed to be a decent working place. The rating is low from me because of the lack of support I got once I was in the job I had been employed to. I continuously made them aware of situations going on at my job and only once was anything done about it. And in the end of it all, I currently am not actively working with them because they allowed the job I worked at to lay me off while I was on active military orders for one month.

I am an administrative assistant and I applied for a job posted by SelecSource.  They called me within 24 hours to come in for an interview.  Even though they were busy, they took their time to get to know me and explain the job I was applying to.  I went for another interview with the company that they were helping, and got the job!  3 months later, the company hired me on as their employee.  I am so grateful to SelecSource for giving me this opportunity!

SELECSOURCE and the onsite manager was willing to work with us in the event we were going to be late or absent from work at the client's location. It helped of course that the client was somewhat flexible about temporary associates' daily attendance.

Working for SelecSource was difficult. You are never really sure when/if they will contact you with a job to go to. They take money out of your small paychecks for fees. They are not very good at answering questions or communicating with employees about job assignments once you get one.
