Client Review on Accentuate Staffing

Feedback:

At first, I was very impressed with Accentuate. They were able to find me a position quickly and I started within the two week notice of my previous job, however; after working in the position I was employed in for about 3 months, the employer asked me to switch positions to scheduling in order to accommodate another Accentuate staff member who disliked the scheduling position. I was hesitant, given that it was my goal to transition out of scheduling, but in my haste to please my employer, accepted on the basis that if I did not enjoy the switch, I was able to return to my original hired role.After another three months, I realized how stressful and mentally hazardous the position was, and why the first candidate wanted to switch. They were unorganized and utilizing outdated scheduling techniques, and did not provide their employees with the resources necessary to assist their clientele or succeed in the role, while insisting they be the first point of contact. Everyday was mentally and emotionally draining. I spoke with my manager, and then sent an email to Accentuate, letting them know how unhappy I was and that I had spoken to the manager about switching back, but that I would continue to do my best in my current position to help the company. I asked them to please be on the lookout for any additional roles in the meantime.The employer was not true to their promise, and decided to let me go entirely with no warning or additional consideration. They did not provide me with the respect or empathy that they did for the previous candidate, who was very happy in the position that I loved so much. I called Accentuate to let them know and, at that time, they promised that the job market was in good standing and to update my resume and they would be in touch. I did so immediately.A week went by without any contact. I emailed Accentuate again, during my 2nd week of unemployment. They claimed that they were having a meeting about it the following morning. Another week went by with no contact. Then another. To date, I have received no further contact from Accentuate after a full month + 1 week, and eventually, I had to take matters into my own hands.Luckily enough, I was able to find suitable and enjoyable employment without Accentuate, however; I am very disappointed in their service as a staffing agency and recommend any individual currently seeking employment venture on their own merit or consider another agency. In the end, I felt like just a paycheck, not a person.
