    11 days ago Do yourself a favor & don't waste your time, liars, cheats, and very un-professional. All branches of RH treat their clients very poorly. If you want to get abused and ignored then they are for you... Reply - Flag for review RR in Weogufka, AL 11 days ago I agree. Going to the Alpharetta, GA office is a waste of time as well. The interviewer actually told me that they can only place about 10% of their clients. Don't bother. Reply - Flag for review Michael in Nashville TN in Franklin, TN 11 days ago Your Robert half doesn't have clue on what there doing and customer service is horriable at theree company. There not the only one. I would not recommend them.

I interviewed with them in July and hear it is Dec and have not heard a word from them. They suck. Reply - Flag for review James in Sacramento, CA 10 days ago I agree too. I recently visited the RH office in Sacramento. The recruiter there was a complete dim wit. She actually suggested that I move back to the Bay Area if I was serious about my career! A bunch of lies, more lies and even more lies!! Reply - Flag for review Michael in Nashville TN in Franklin, TN 10 days ago you probly have more experience than these dim wited recruiters. Most are clueless and most have no real outside sales experience and most are very young. Thanks for the reply Reply - Flag for review James in Sacramento, CA 10 days ago A friend of mine who lives in London, say's that RH out there are really professional and found him potential jobs within a week of searching..must be somthing in the water here..?

    Congratulations to all that posted your experiences with this terrible organization. It appears that the geniuses in the corporate office missed a few days at the country club… Heads are a rolling at Robert Half. There are no less then 400 jobs listed for new account executives at the local hell holes around the country. Hopefully the Half-Wit that pissed YOU off will be getting the BOOT. Hope all those Half-Wits copied some skill sets for their resumes! However, they could all be fake jobs, then again you have to be an fool to even get involved in that back stabbing revolving door at the local Robert Half-Wit office. So let it be known that their idiot business model just S-H-I-T the bed…candidates are avoiding RH like the plague that they are…..

    Especially in Tampa. Reasons why not..(feel free to add as much as you like, I am curious to see what anyone elses thoughts are) 1.The people there are straight liars. 2.They will threaten you with your job on a daily bases, and if that is not enough...they will fire you to save their own butts. 3.They will string lower level candidates along even though they know they aren't placeable. This type of behavior effected me the most. 4.Remember, they get a commission when you get hired there, that's why they want you to to get hired. After that, they don't care what happens to you 5.You WILL lose your technical edge. 6.You will hurt others to help yourself. 7.They keep your goals just high enough to put your job at risk on a day to day basis. 8.After they fire you, you will have to explain to your next employer why you moved industries. This can effect your credability. 9.60 plus hour work week, an awful life balance 10.They will tell you that you can make as much as most of the tenured producers...not true.

    I have an opportunity with RHI here in Sacramento where I would be working under their Salaried Professional Program (after 6 mos contract). From I understand, this program affords all the benefits as a RHI employee. Does anyone now hoe much RHI contributes towards medical insurance? The opportunity is a pay increase for me, but if they do not contribute anything towards medical, the increase would be minimal. Any advice/reviews for the RHI Sacramento office?

    LeagleBeagle in Houston, Texas I am a former Robert Half manager too. They can't keep people in the seats past lunch. They are clueless in the legal staffing industry and think their accounttemps/officeteam model of 125 calls and 12 visits solves everything. It's all about gross margin profit and NEVER about the candidate. They practice age discrimination with a secret coding system called AIP -- Attitude, Intellect and Placeability. High is 1 low is 5. Passed out a sheet in a training seminar saying to grade someone as a "4" who was a "matured worker." A clue--job orders are 3 numbers and a dash like 111- if the next number is a "9" it is a fake job order.

    Does anyone have any information to share about the Austin TX Robert Half office? I see that they have a position open for a recruiter on their website, but have read some very negative things about the company. Most people say it's the people that run the offices that ruin the expereince - so I'm wondering if anyone has any insight into the Austin operation? Thanks!

    Robert Half Finance & Accounting has a horrible reputation. Many former employees have started their own firms, and are taking market share left and right from this highly disorganized company. They "churn & burn", run through employees like toilet paper, and steal the business you create. Run away, as fast as you can, you've been warned!
  • Ohio IT Guy in Cleveland, Ohio 13 months ago
    As many of you are internal Ex-Halfers, I am wondering if you know the answer to the following question. Which companies does RHT identify as its main competitors in the Northeast Ohio area? I am aware that RHT has two offices nearby - one in Akron and one in downtown Cleveland. There are so many staffing firms in this area that any of them could be seen as a competitor. Which of these firms does RHT identify as its top competitor? I am interested in knowing the answer so that I might provide options to my I.T. director. One of the reasons that RHT is so successful in this area is that people know their name because of the nationwide marketing. However, there has to be better options for us than employing their company. Having used "RHT Consultants," I know that the billing multiples that I have seen range from 1.7 to 2.0 - based upon our invoices and the information we were able to get out of the "consultant." It is neither fair to us nor the team member that RHT takes such a large portion of the hourly rate. In situations that the billing multiple is 2.0, or higher, and the project is to last more than a year, it would be more effective to use our own HR to find and directly hire someone rather than use RHT's services. Outsourcing H.R. functions is supposed to yield a cheaper alternative to direct-hires. It is not supposed to be as costly or more costly. So, if anyone can help answer the question, it would be appreciated.

    I just want to say that the recruiters at Robert Half are the worst of the worst in the industry. I have been lied to time and time again by these recruiters! They are the worst!
  • Fed Up and Leaving in Scottsdale, Arizona 15 months ago
    They have plenty of people on their books, they place ads like they have jobs galore and they are putting out to recruit more people just so you never get a call because they planned on placing some internal candidate in the position anyways. Face it, I don't know why they are listing all these jobs. With the economy, there are none to post. Placement agencies at this time are a WASTE OF TIME. You sit for 3 hours testing, blowing it out of the water for them to given the job to someone already on their payroll. I wish they would back off and stick with what they have instead of raising hopes for people who will waste 3 hrs and never hear from them.
