I have signed up with allied for the third time. I sign up with multiple agengies to present as many options and opportunities me as possible. Allied has a high volume of applicants and most seem to leave the office disapointed. Allied have yet, in 18 months called me. I always reach out to them. Agencies such as Aerotek and Berks and Beyond at least reach out via recruiters. Allied buffers calls from there front desk. And do not give you an opportunity to speak with recruiters even if your qualifications and acolades have recently changed or have been updated on your resume. In conclusion my impression is that they do not want to give you the time of day. Yet on there website multiple positions are offered in my field and stay open UNFILLED for weeks. I will let you draw your own conclusions from that.

I was recently laid off from job that allied helped provide to me. I was told that they would help me get back into the work force so I was not to worried, it has been months and many attempts to contact a recruiter later and still no job. I have called and gone into speak to someone and both times told that i wouldnt need to contact them and that they would get back to me when they had an opportunity that for me. I have even asked to just wait in line to speak to someone and was shown the door. This is very disheartening since the first times I went in they found me many opportunities and was shown jobs that were available right away. They have many open positions available on their website but no time to speak to people who actually want to work. Very disappointing.

Dont bother. They called me last minute about job.Was told job would be faxing, filing, etc. Was given a sheet with name of company, person to report to, etc. Well first off person I was to report to was NOT even there guess she forgot I was starting that day or whatever. Was told by Allied that job would be filing, faxing, etc. Get to job and find out it is a call center and was told to learn all these safety files and that I was going to be TESTED on them end of the week. WTH? This was supposed to be a one month four hr a day assignment. Someone was NOT being honest. Either the company lied to Allied or Allied lied to me. What a joke this company is and seems I am not the only one who is not happy with them.

I have experience in the Business field as an Administrative Assistant. Most of the jobs I found on my own and applied for took a good amount of my time and effort. In this day and age, it is very hard to find a job....period. I can appreciate the hard work this group of girls have done to help me. I have past experiences working for other agencies and I can tell you this group has a professional approach to the clients needs. At the present, Im working in a position I wouldnt have found on my own. It is a great fit for me. We have developed a great relationship and I owe it all to Allied! Thank you! Keep up the hard work for the rest of the job seekers!

Allied Personnel did a great job finding me a temporary position quickly. After my interview, it only took a few weeks for them to find work for me. One job was temporary and when I was nearing the end of my term, Allied had already set me up with an interview for another assignment. There was no gap in employment. After about six months of my second temporary position I was offered a full time position. Lisa, my contact at Allied, was very helpful. She always kept in touch to find out how my jobs were going and made sure I felt that the positions they set me up with were a good fit.

Worked for this agency for 6 months and than randomly was let go from assignment right at Christmas. I never missed a day of work! I left a permanent job since allied offered me an office job that worked with my degree. I was unsure about taking the offer but they assured me that if I go to work everyday and put forth an effort Id have no problem getting hired with the company they were placing me with within a few months. 6 months later I now am unemployed after putting forth the effort and never missing anything and working overtime as much as possible. Shady!!!!

As I sat there waiting for the girl to interview me, she had all kinds of food on her desk which made the office stink. She verbally asked me the exact questions that I answered on the application. She proceeded to circle my answers that were already written. The best was asking me what I did in 1995?!?! Seriously???

I filled out their paperwork, included excellent personnel reviews, college degrees, and references. Yet, as of today (8 months later) I have received no response. Why? They want to pay 7 dollars per hour to any person who uses their firm, and I certainly warrant far more than that pittance.

They are very friendly when you talk to them but they do not follow through. I applied a few months ago and still did not hear from them. We were even going to review by resume and they never did that. Just a dead end. If I could give less than 1 star I would

Though the job did not pay well at first, it opened some amazing doors for me and I regret nothing about my decision to work through allied. I would recommend them to everyone I know who is struggling to find a job in the career they want.

I was fortunate enough to get a position quickly. In the mean time, basic health care coverage doesnt break the bank and helps save. I will say that the testing for Office Software proficiency needs an update.

I have worked several jobs with Allied and I loved them! They were convenient and great short term jobs, and everyone was super helpful and nice. I would recommend it to anyone looking for this type of work!

I applied to Allied in May 2011 and by August they found me a position at a University, they also placed me with two other companies. I recently reapplied in office and sent emails, but no response.
