Background legal secretary for 26 years. Also worked in extensively in real estate and investments. Outstanding technical skills.

Thinking about getting back to work permanent part-time or part-time/temp. Prefer to register with one good, reputable agency that does not play games. Currently collecting unemployment benefits, so when temp jobs end, I don't want to have a fight with UE about my 'refusing work' which I've heard they do.

Any recommendations?

Thanks so much.

Hello,

Here are a few suggestions:

Adecco - The world leader in Human Resources solutions - Adecco
Manpower Inc. – Employment services industry leader offering permanent, temporary, contract recruitment; employee assessment and selection; training; outplacement; outsourcing and consulting services. - Manpower
Robert Half International - Professional Staffing and Consulting Services - Robert Half International

I've worked with Adecco, but it was many years ago. I have to admit that I've heard bad things about Manpower's work environment. I'm not sure about RHI.

Good Luck!!!!

Thanks. I hear RHI is not good. Big posting on Milwaukeejobs.com for people in my field. Sent resume and pretty good cover letter two weeks ago. Heard nothing. Then went online and read they're just a racket. Lots of bad experiences posted.

Was leaning to Adecco and, possibly, Manpower. I'll put MP last for now along with RHI.

My company just hired a temp to perm candidate through Robert Half, although we usually work with Kelly services.
