If I am working with you, can I still look for jobs on my own or with other agencies? Absolutely, we never prohibit you from working with anyone. We are going to help you in any way we can, but we also encourage you to seek opportunities on your own so you can be sure you end up in a position you are happy with.

Do you take a percentage of my pay? No, we do not take any percentage from you. Our fees are paid by the client who has asked us to find them the best candidates possible.

I have my own LLC and use a 1099- can you accommodate this? Yes! We know that many contractors choose to create their own LLC for tax purposes, and we can certainly set you up with invoices for that.

I responded to a specific job posting, is that a real job opening or a generic call for candidates? We post only real job openings and we'd like real candidates to fill them – we don't post fake ads.

What should I wear for my interview with you? You should dress casually [not sweatpants and flip flops casual] so we can have a comfortable meeting and get a sense of what you're looking for.

What are the benefits of working with an agency? Our clients have come to us with specific needs to fulfill because they do not have the time or resources to review all applicants, or they simply want to know they are seeing well qualified, talented applicants. Because of this, we often have much better access to clients who would not be reviewing candidates otherwise.

Can I just walk in and meet with a Recruiter? We interview by appointment, so we can be sure to have enough time to thoroughly review your resume and get to know your interests and abilities. Submit your resume and a recruiter will be in touch to set up an appointment.

Do I have to take any tests? For those candidates applying for jobs relying heavily on specific computer skills [i.e.- accounting assistants or production artists] we may test you. These will be in the form of links which we email to you, and you can take at your convenience at home.

Do you accept out of state applications? Our clients come to us when they have specific needs, so the jobs are open immediately. Because of the relatively quick turnaround time, it would be difficult to facilitate the interview process with an out of state candidate, but do get in touch with us when you are in town and we'd be happy to help you then.

Do you have jobs during nights or weekends which I can do in my off time? While we do occasionally get off hours positions in, the majority of our jobs require normal business hours.

I am still working and find it difficult to get away- can I interview with you over the phone? We have found that in-person interviews are best as they allow us to get a better idea of your personality and goals, which helps us to find a better match for you. We can offer lunchtime meetings, after hours or offsite meetings near you to accommodate your schedule if needed.

How long will it take to find a job for me? That duration is different for everyone, and is influenced by skillset, availability, what you are looking for, etc. We will, however, start looking for the right opportunity as soon as we meet you.
