Robert Half Finance & Accounting

I hesitate to give lower than a three star even through my gut reaction is about a two.
I had ended up sending in my resume after deciding to take the temperature of the current job market and finding Robert Half had posted a job listing on LinkedIn. While I had a really great experience with another recruiter, the recruiter from Robert Half mirrored almost exactly the negative experiences I’d had with other recruiters in the past.
After emailing my resume for a specific position, the job I’d sent my resume in for was never mentioned again. And, after one single teleconference, I received temp paperwork from a third party person at the agency, but before having the chance to fill it out, I received a job offer through the other recruiter (ABA Staffing).
I sent an email to Robert Half and let them know I was in negotiations and was immediately called by them to «check in» and «see if they could help.» I didn’t return their call, but made the mistake of accidentally answering a few days after I’d accepted my new job. The Half recruiter had called with the vague excuse to ask for advice. After telling them I’d been hired elsewhere, the recruiter started telling me about an SF client they had (I’d made it clear I was not interested in working in SF during the original teleconference) and the word «you» kept being dropped while describing the job’s duties. I was then asked if I knew anyone interested. I said no, and politely wrapped up the phone call.
A few days later I was called again by another person at the agency regarding «opportunities» and decided I had had enough. After calling them back I let them know I was no longer interested in being contacted. Even after posting this review, someone reached out trying to get me to contact them.
While I’m sure for some people their process works wonderfully, I found it wasn’t for me.
