Best Staffing Agency In Denver

I moved to Denver, CO and started talking to many staffing firms in the area looking for a job. Many of they took little interest in me and didn't give me the time of day until I ran into www.fusionstaffing.net they treated me like a real person and helped me find employment.

Have any of you found good staffing firms here in Colorado to work with?

I have found ConsultNet to be very effective if you are looking for IT work/consulting. They are honest and very professional. They have built an excellent network of clients and technology experts in Denver.

I am moving to Colorado (Denver) very soon, so I would like to find a job.

Robert Half International and its subdivision, Accountemps, don't do a thing for you and I can't recommend either of them from personal experience. I'm highly qualified for many of the jobs they advertise as being theirs to hire for. I've been registered with them for 8 months and they've not done a darn thing for me. I don't believe the jobs they post are actually there.

Robert Half and Accountemps did nothing for me either. I registered with them over a year ago and have called and called. They just keep telling me they have nothing available that fits me at this time. Yeah right. I'm with you about their posted jobs. I haven't been "right" for any of them according to Accountemps.

Fusion is the worst. As a hiring manager, I know that they scour the websites, craigslist & myspace for candidates for jobs that are available directly. They also try to weasel in the back door & are not confidential with your resume. Steer clear!

I agree. I initially registered with them prior to moving to Colorado. The only sane person I dealt with there, left. I then interviewed with 1 person there. They did zip. I got a job on my own for a while. Later, when I posted my resume on Monster, that SAME person contacted me, not realizing that I was registered with them. I had to tell her!!They've done nothing for me, and I really wonder if they know what they're doing. I ignore their listings. Others I've spoken with pretty much say the same thing, especially about their "supposed" listings.

I still haven't found any agencies in Denver or Fort Collins that seem to give a crap. I'll take suggestions! Looking to move back to Fort Collins.

I agree. Without perhaps one exception, I never hear again from a recruiter after I send them a resume. When I call back to check where I stand with that job, the recruiter is always in a meeting and I am sent to voice mail. Companies are willing to pay recruiters because recruiters they will do the discrimination (particularly age) that employers want but are afraid to do.

I agree with everyone about agencies. I have posted resumes on the major job boards. I stupidly put my phone number on my first listings (since corrected). Most of the agencies that called me were rude. One very rude headhunter had the guts to ask me to pass on her opening. Legal headhunters have been pushy, or abrupt, and/or have lied about following up.

Agencies here have been rude to my wife. She saw an ad in the Post on a Sunday and faxed in her resume that morning. The headhunter called her Monday for an appointment on Tuesday. My wife showed up. Praise the L-rd, the job had been filled! This headhunter then tried to shove my wife into a job she could not have possibly done. For all of these reasons, I won't deal with headhunters or agencies.

I've lived in Denver most of my life. For some reason jobs have always been hard to get, and employers have been uncooperative and difficult. I cannot figure out why.

Whatever you do, don't go to Joblink. They will take your money and leave you with nothing but a number to call that is only available from 7:00am to 7:00pm, and you can only get two job listings a day for some reason, not that they do any good because half the time you can't understand the machine and even if you can, they all seem to be dead ends. When I tried to get my money refunded the lady was incredibly rude and patronizing. Biggest scam ever.

I also have never had any luck with that company, just a lot of wasted time, gas and parking money. Three times over 4 years I went back in to update paperwork and retake tests, ect and not once since I registered with them in 2004 have I ever heard from them. I quit calling. They are a waste of time, energy and money.

I also went through the same thing with them. I did get lucky and get a job for about 3 months way in Centennial, which took over an hour to get to from Denver. The chick that is in the office is very nice when she takes your money, but any problems she is a b..... It took a month and a half to get jobs I was actually qualified for. They were giving me two jobs a day that had nothing to do with the jobs I applied for. Most of the jobs they have you can get off the internet or out of the paper. WASTE OF YOUR MONEY!!!

I have found COMSYS located in Denver to be the best to work with. They not only helped me find gigs in Denver, but also had openings in Boulder too.

The recruiter was excellent and continues to give me detailed feedback on my resume and quick feedback after she submits my resume.

I have worked with a lot of recruiters in the past, COMSYS so far is the best!
