AppleOne Employment Services

From the front desk to the reps, all of them were real nice. Also my rep Eyleen Sanchez is the best rep I’ve ever had. I highly recommend this place!

AppleOne’s methods seem rather lazy. The only position I was offered was a robotic busy-​work job doing data entry for a firm located RIGHT NEXT DOOR TO THE APPLE ONE OFFICE. Good to see they are willing to GO THE DISTANCE for their clients…
This agency just wants to fill a local position so the Apple One office ladies get paid, regardless of proper fit for you, the client.

Jacqueline is personable, extremely knowledgeable and a true professional. She continues to set an example of how other staffing agencies and recruiters should operate. I have been in contact with a few agencies and none compare to the due diligence, encouragement and integrity of Jacqueline at AppleOne. She truely does what she says she will do and continues to impress me with her work ethic and great character.

I contacted many agencies to try find work and didn’t hear back from several of them. The experience with AppleOne was completely the opposite. The front office receptionist and the staff was so courteous and professional. The recuriter assigned to support my job search was top notch. I was looking for something very specific and AppleOne did an excellent job to support my employment needs. AppleOne will remain on my contact list for a very long time!

Yes, they can/​will get you out to jobs (aka assignments) right away, but the details of those assignments are not always made clear. My biggest issue was the length of each assignment. If they tell you they’re sending you on a 2 month assignment, it turns into two weeks, making it hard for you to plan things out. They expect you to be available at a drop of a hat too. They don’t like it if you’re looking for a job on your own, and God forbid you’re sick or something because they will tell you you’re unprofessional for not being available to them on a certain day, even if they haven’t called you in weeks.
The reps here are a doozy. Michelle especially is so condescending and a smart aleck. She speaks down to people, and her tone makes you feel belittled. On to the jobs: I went from making $ 17 an hour at my previous employer and i regret leaving that job to seek employment with AppleOne. This company will send you out to do jobs so beneath you no matter what your qualifications are. I was an Executive Assistant, Office Manager, and Accounting Clerk in previous jobs, but when I signed up with AppleOne, they kept sending me to VERY low paying front desk/​reception jobs. Really? Get real AppleOne and send people to jobs they deserve! Ugh. Never again. So glad I found employment outside of this terrible agency.

If I could give this agency negative 10 stars it wouldnt be enough. I loathe this place. My significant other works for them not as a temp but as an employee. He has worked here for about 7 weeks, he got one paycheck and hasnt received anymore. They could care less about office staff, sales is everything. If it doesnt sell its cattle. Stay far away!!!

Here is how AppleOne operates. They put out listings of jobs, (i.e. Indeed, Monster, etc.), a sort of fish bait, for the world to see. After a job seeker applies for a posted position, the job seeker gets a call back for an interview, very promptly. Sounds good, right? This where they, AppleOne, shines using their unscrupulous, yet, proud tactic. Reps from AppleOne will simply state that the posting that the seeker originally applied for has been filled/​gone. Then, they will proceed to introduce other positions available… positions he/​she never even considered, positions he/​she swore to never work. However, it is too late; all dressed up, looking and smelling like a millions bucks, wouldn’t want this effort of looking good to go to waste, so he/​she agrees to undertake this assignment. Once in their jaws, and have been assigned to a job, the seemingly infinite value of a person diminishes to nothing more than a peon, working and toiling the office job, as the reps at AppleOne they sit back and collect. Have family emergency while on assignment? Be prepared to receive a tirade of unprofessionalism and mockery. Rep at AppleOne once replied «Oh, so you’re getting rashes on your face from an allergic reaction? Well, you can still go to work.» That was a verbatim reply from an AppleOne rep, with no exaggeration. That, my fellow job seekers, is how they operate. Sure, one might have gotten a job they applied for, but that is a very rare case.
Don’t believe me? I encourage those to come forward and share your AppleOne experience.
Note: The biggest tyrant of them all goes by the name of Charleen, however, her minion, Michelle, is just as disgusting.
P. S.: If you are young and have a college degree, be prepared to be offered a job in a phone center.
YOU ALL HAVE BEEN WARNED.

«It was a good experience overall at the Cypress Branch. I just hope that AppleOne could include more IT related positions.»

I was seriously afraid to go to an employment agency to find a job, but after getting «let go» from my previous employer suddenly, I needed to get back in the workforce. I was getting depressed and had nothing to do for about two months. I initially had an appointment scheduled with Lauren about three weeks after I lost my job, but I couldn’t make it. After looking on my own for about another month, I just decided to give her a call again. Unfortunately, I had to cancel my SECOND scheduled appointment because I got acute appendicitis. I felt so bad, but It was just out of my control. Needless to say, Lauren was so nice and she understood my situation so we rescheduled for the third time. Never have I had someone who was actually following up with me at all times regarding appointments and calls. Anyway, I went in for the initial interview and she made me feel really comfortable and even coached me what to say when that dreaded «why did you leave you last job?» question came up. She was able to secure an interview for me from a large company within a week of me finally going in for my interview. Prior to going to the interview, I met with her coworker Charlene, who has placed people at this company, and she also coached me and prepared me for the interview. A couple of days passed, and what do you know, I got a job within two weeks of my interview! I can’ thank these ladies enough. If you have good qualifications and good computer skills, not to mention a bachelors degree, try out this agency, I’m glad I did.

They get 5 stars because I haven’t really had a bad experience. AppleOne served it’s purpose in finding me temporary work. I think the account managers are pretty good about getting their clients out there and giving them many opportunities to meet with employers and showcase their talents.
I must say I was very lucky with a lot of the temp positions I got. Jodi found a lot of positions for me that were actually perfect for my schedule. I was a full-​time student and needed extra cash on the side, so I was sent on some half-​day, some full-​day assignments on Fridays, mostly. I was called back to work for those companies because I worked hard. That’s all it is. Make a good impression and the companies will call for you back. Who knows, it may lead to a better, more permanent position within the company.
If you take advantage of the opportunites to make a good impression on these companies, they will remember you and most likely request you to work for them again. All these people can do is get you in front of the employers – it’s up to you to show your worth.
Again, my needs were simple – I just needed a temporary job to get me by while I applied to school. For those who are looking for full-​time, permanent positions, I’m sure that it’s a little different. Again, showcasing a good work ethic usually does not go unnoticed.

So RUDE! I emailed to say I couldn’t make my appointment because I was ill and called back later to reschedule. When the lady left me a voicemail back, she was ripping me a new one for not being serious enough to make the appointment and that my not calling and not emailing to let her know was an «indicator» of how I would be as a client, so on and do forth. I can see exactly why so many listings of locations for this agency have shut down. Don’t waste your time.

Grrrrr me Iyself never coming back
