Nashoba Placement

When I found myself becoming bored with my job, I started looking for new opportunities within a similar field. I was contact by Candace at Nashoba Placement, who had a position she though I’d be interested in taking. I was nervous about leaving a steady, full-​time job for something even temp-​to-​hire, but she managed to convince me to at least interview.
I sat with her to fill out an application for Nashoba and talked with her about my goals. She gave me tips for my interview and didn’t bog down my time with endless paperwork and survey questions. She was nice and seemed to genuinely care about what I wanted and how she could help me achieve it.
I worked for Nashoba for about a month (until the company hired me), and in the meantime Candace had taken some time off and I was asked to work with Carol, another great contact in the office. She was always available to answer my questions, and always paid me on time and in the correct amount.
I would recommend Nashoba to anyone wanting to get into a new company or field, and looking to be lead by people who actually care.

After six months of slacking post-​college graduation, I decided that it was high time I joined the working force. The people at Nashoba Placement definitely eased the transition into the working world.
I called Carol Coyne and spoke with her about the possibility to be placed into something entry-​level. She and I set up an interview and I met with her and we talked about my experience and what I wanted to do. Carol was great, she was genuinely interested in me and very easy to speak with. She made me optimistic about my chances even given my lack of experience. I didn’t have to take the monotonous tests that I hear about at other placement agencies– she understood that as a college grad in 2004 I pretty much was guaranteed to know Microsoft Office and be familiar with typing. (Hello? This was the Chat room/IM’ing generation!!)
At our first meeting she presented a few positions and asked me what I thought. I selected one I was interested in and she said she would be in touch.
A week and a half later I started at my new temp gig. If those aren’t results, I don’t know what is! It was temp to hire and I was hired on full-​time within three months of my first day. Carol even helped me negotiate a starting salary.
While working as a temp, I would manage a time card and fax to Carol each week who would then cut me a check. Very sweet, very professional and very easy to work with. Highly recommended.
