Select Staffing

Do not come here!!! Run!!! They do not back their employees and staff is not helpful.

Staff was friendly and helpful

I met with Shelly Pulido and some and Yolanda and Sophia, excellent crew at the office located in Irvine at 16 525 Von Karmen Ave. in Irvine, California. First off I wanted to say what a pleasant experience I had, Shelly and the entire office are so friendly and they are dedicated to making the office a very positive and productive office. I went in for a pre employment drug screening and general meeting and I was so impressed with the HIGH level of excellence they convey there at that office. I am thankful my employer uses them because they are such a blessing to me, thank you Shelly and Yolanda as well as the others whom I didn’t get your name but you equally are amazing! To top it off I am getting my dream job and today after I met with these amazing people I shot a 75 round of golf, the lowest scoring round for me in my life, thank you :)

I would not be recommending this temp agency to anyone. They are very unprofessional and the receptionist is very rude. This temp agency does not even take a look at your online application unless you ask them (ridiculous) when my resume is included and does not forewarn you about their policy of having to work in the previous 6 months or they can’t give you work and then turn you away. Readers I would not waste your gas and time going to this place not worth it. There are way more highly professional temp agencies in O.C. this is by far the worst I have gone to or experienced. Temp agencies are suppose to find you work that is the whole point of going there, regardless of your work history gap in resumes. So unprofessional!!!

So in the beginning working with Select was a great experience they were nice and friendly. And I have to admit they did find me placement but a few things went down that proved to me that they were really just out to make a buck and are not really concerned about the people they place. I am very close with my now full time boss but when I was still on contract I got another offer from someone and told Select about it. Behind my back they told my boss that I was leaving before I could even tell him myself. Needless to say he told me he was very disappointed that I did not tell him personally. I specifically told select that I would inform my boss myself. Imagine working for a boss that straight up told you he was disappointed in you. How embarrassing is that?! My boss and I have a great relationship now and I’m employed full time but just one of those things that showed they really just wanted accounts and could care less how the people they employ look. What they dont get is the people they employ are reflections of them. So when the back stab someone they place they really are hurting themselves also. I was getting paid $ 18.00/hr through them but my company was being charged $ 29 so make sure you negotiate!
