Ultimate Staffing Services

**YOU BEEN WARNED**
I applied for a job posting via the Internet. A Mr. M, contacted me, he went through the preliminary questions over the phone, and schedule a face to face interview with me. When I got there, I had to wait in an in an interviewing room for almost 30 minutes because Mr .M was in a meeting, very unprofessional since I got there on time, it raised a red flag on how they treat potential temps. Anyways I completed the interview with Mr. M, I even did a short video of me, which is recommended by the staffing agency, I thought it went well.
Next was an interview with Mr. M’s Manager (Ms. Hollywood-​I will call her), needless to say, it went down hill from there. She shook my hand scanned me with her eyes, then quickly sat down like she was in a hurry. For the next couple of minutes, she didn’t not even look at me or even wait for me to finish answering her few questions she had asked me, it raised another red flag. I really was interested in this job I was applying for, which I was way more than qualified, but towards the end of my interview with Ms. Hollywood, while I was thanking her for interviewing me, she abruptly reached over the desk and gives me her card and with out looking at me gets up walked towards the door and tells me we will keep your resume and contact you for any job matches to my resume.
Needless to say, I was left utterly appalled. To the point of feeling discriminated against my nationality, because I was obviously qualified for this position.
I waited for about 3 days, no calls from Mr. M, so I decided to leave a message to return my call regarding the position I applied for, what I got was the same cookie cutter response that I received from Ms. Hollywood. The third and final red flag. I never got a call back and it’s about almost a month now.
Side note, I had another interview with the same agency later that day at a different location, but Mr. M told me he would contact them to cancel that interview since I already have interview with him. To no surprise, he never did, so I received a slightly upset call from the staffing recruiter asking why I didn’t make my interview.
I highly do not recommended this staffing agency, if I can give this 0 stars I would. Do not waste your time this place is soo unprofessional and their business conduct is appalling.
You been warned. Don’t believe me look at the other reviews who relate with me.

I have been unemployed for a little while now and have been working with several staffing agencies in hopes of finding a job. Laura Van Deudekom, Business Solutions Manager, has truly been amazing to work with. She is not only highly personable and responsive but she has also passed the word about my candidacy throughout the office; landing me other interviews through her colleagues. I really feel that she is looking out for my best interest and unlike other staffing agencies, Laura is calling me and checking up on my status regularly. She called me just to see how my interview went yesterday. Laura talks to me in a way that makes me feel very comfortable and well-​cared for. I would highly recommend using Ultimate Staffing Services and request Laura Van Deudekom as your recruiter.
Cheers!

I applied here and they found me a job within a week. It’s been 4 months now and the place I’m at is wonderful. I’m becoming a permanent worker pretty soon and I would like to thank Maddie and Laura for the help.
P. s. you can get cheap medical benefits and get paid every week.

One of the worst recruiting agencies out there. They act like you are so great and they can find you something quickly, then you hear nothing for months. Then when you pursue them, leaving countless messages and emails (like all job hunting desperadoes are supposed to do), they finally throw something crappy at you, knowing it is a waste of time. Then it is back to sweet nothingness again. LOSERS!!!

This place was absolutely wonderful! Within a week, not only did I have a job, but a job I really wanted. I went to school to be a paralegal and after graduating, no one would give me a shot. Not even an interview. After working with Laura and Chelsea at Ultimate Staffing for just a few short days, I got a direct hire job at a firm that I love. I recommend this place highly!

I originally applied for a contractor job in Huntington Beach which was part time. I have been wanting to finish school for about 5 years now so I decided it was time. But of course if you don’t have funds it’s extremely hard. So I was willing to take anything at this point. I’m going to describe this by location, experience and first impression.
The location: Beautiful, located across from the Costa Mesa Mall. That deserves 1 star.
Staff: Receptionist was snobby. I walked in and said hello and she didn’t reply. Just kept looking down and working. I told her I had an appointment but was late 15 min due to traffic on the 405 and I couldn’t find the place at first so I had to go around the shopping center. She asked if I notified my agent and I told her no (after all I had rescheduled twice for my agent who canceled due to personal matters). I was never rude, pretended to not notice her remarks that she lives far away in La Habra and comes in on time. Com’on girl THIS IS YOUR JOB OFCOURSE YOU ARE GOING TO BE HERE ON TIME! No need for the snobbyness. She stood up and was wearing a mini skirt with 6 inch heels and a blazer on top. I’m not one to ever criticize but you could see her cottage cheese from her thighs down to her ankles. Aside from that weird intro, I ignored it. She did offer water so I guess thanks? Another star I suppose. –_​_​_​_​–
My experience however was below average. The agent I was assigned to seemed so pleasant and knowledgable on the phone but in person was a different story. I’m not sure if it was my appearance? I dressed professionally long button down blue shirt and black slacks with close toe heels 2 inches tall or perhaps she was looking for a extremely bubbly person? I’m laid back in nature so that couuuuld be it. But she definitely didn’t go beyond anything to help. She informed me that she had a bunch of leads and would definitely send out my resume to them. More so I got the impression of a run around but in a polite way… I still followed up 11 days later then 21 days later but nothing came up so I gave up. I know she was giving me the run around.
Side note *I have over 6 years of administrative experience but don’t have a degree because I prioritized work. To be honest if I had a degree I’d never step foot in an agency.
During our one on one conversation I asked about the part time job originally posted online and was surprised that she had NO RECOLLECTION of it. What many agents do is pick and choose their candidates. I came to realize that many agencies make up positions in an effort to attract applicants and place them where they think they’ll be able to close a deal with. I followed up with her twice then never heard from her again. She simply said the companies she sent my resume to weren’t looking to hire. Personally this place was a waste of time.
I know select staffing supposedly has top placement awards and what not but I really didn’t see what was special about this place. I decided to apply directly with several companies and I’m finally working. I will not be coming back. Don’t recommend this place to anyone.

The place is shitty and all there business location in the US is the same cuz they never call you after they told you to summit your resume to them and they not even try to help you find a job just like Matt Mayeda the one in 1212 Alton Pkwy. All and all they make you feel negative and never like even put the effort to help you when you go to them. Oh yea and they want charge us after we got the job when we do all the work like calling them none stop and I thought is their job to get us a job and call us.
