Critical: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value The worst place I have ever been involved with, been on there books for 6 years and have received only one email from them. Every single person that works in the place is from Poland and the like. I checked the jobs they have to offer and it's lots and still nothing, if your from a different country this is the place for you.

I applied for a position as an engineer. They called me for a position as a bakery assistant saying that my CV was a good match for that. I do not know who is in charge of this agency but. hire better people

Company is a complete joke, I registered with them and was asked for details such as emergency contact which is normal in almost all jobs. what was not normal was them calling my emergency contact relentlessly over and over daily to ask them to contact me as they "may possibly have an interview lined up". they called me 3 times back to back I couldn't answer as I didn't have my phone so they began spamming my family with calls to the point I had told them to completely remove me form their system and never contact me or my family again, they are a pain in the a$$.

This company is a joke. Your car can not get broken, and you have to be ready to work 24/7. One mistake and make notes that the person is not reliable. They forgot pay salaries, and tells lie that the money has been sent and sees the transfer. Minute letter she changed her mind and she said that my cheque is in the office in Lisburn. Ussles

If your not successful getting the job you apply for it would be nice for them to offer alternative options. It's best to cut out the middle man (i.e Industrial temps) and find the job yourself.
