Client Review on Staff Quest, Inc.
Feedback:
I do not recommend using Staff Quest unless you are very desperate. They test you to find your skill set which is normal BUT they test you on your knowledge of prehistoric software. They need to know that you are proficient in Microsoft Office '95 and give you a math test that feels like you are taking your SAT's without a calculator. "Some offices may not have updated computer systems or calculators." Well these are not ideal places to work. After over an hour of testing you are offered a job which pays well below the average wage for that particular position. They want you to be happy about this because after all " you are getting a job." I am not sure of whom I was speaking with because no one ever introduced themselves to me by name but there were 2 ladies there when I visited. Lady A (African American, light skin, black/dark brown hair (permed), average weight) seemed slightly polite but very testy. Lady B (Caucasian, sandy blonde hair worn down on shoulders, tall) was very polite and conversational. I had no issues with her. I asked Lady A if there were any positions that paid around my desired hourly wage and she explained to me that there were but I did not have the skill set for them. Apparently in order to make AT LEAST $15/hr you would need to have account executive experience. I was presented with a position that paid $7.50/hr LESS than my previous job yet it was the same work as my previous job. I am still trying to wrap my brain around how I do not have the skill set to make what they THINK is account executive money. I have a Bachelor’s degree, scored very well on my math testing, typed 49 wpm and have years of experience with administrative work. To say the least I felt insulted. Lady A also pointed out that I had not been working for the last 4 months which is something else I am trying to understand. Does this mean I am supposed to be desperate enough for work to take a large pay cut? Does this mean I lost all of my skills in a matter of 4 months? I was told that good paying positions just "simply aren't out there" and that the reason why I made so much at my previous job was because I "worked my way up." I politely explained to her (Lady A) that this was not true and that I started there as a temp as well making a wage that is supposedly not out there anymore. Needless to say I did not complete my interview and upon leaving I was informed that all paperwork that I'd completed would be shredded. I feel like I’d wasted over 1.5 hours of time in which I can never get back. All this could have been avoided because I clearly communicated with them what I was looking for in a position, including my desired wage. Thankfully I'd just left an interview before arriving there that was offering a wage right within my target. If you decided to work for Staff Quest I just hope you have a much better experience than I did.
