Abigail Abbott Staffing Services

At this point I wish I could give the 0 stars. I haven’t heard anything from my job counselor Amanda and at this point she seems to be very unprofessional. She never returns any of my calls or voicemails, there are truly a horrible job agency!

I used to temp for these guys several years ago; if the Census doesn’t need me back for the next phase, I may be going back here.
I had a couple short-​term assignments with them and a fairly long term one with Partners FCU (that’s Disney’s credit union, but you probably already knew that). The staff is friendly and professional, but they really only communicated with you if they found and assignment. I’d call twice a week on Mondays (Hi I’m here) and Thursday (Hi I’m still looking) just to be proactive and check in.
This is much better than a couple other firms I was signed on concurrently; one was pissed that I was working with a couple different agencies (uh, I need to work and maximize my exposure, asshole) and after I told another that I was currently working a short-​term assignment, she gave me the «if you’re no longer available I can’t assign you new assignments» bullshit-​line. It was my observation that employment agencies have a «don’t call us, we’ll call you» policy.
If you’re in Shitsville like the other 11% of Long Beach, this might be another avenue to get some kind of work, but don’t seriously count on it. The only thing I really trust know is betting Red and the 1^st and 2^nd columns in roulette or the $ 1 yo, $ 3 hop 7s and hedging like a madman on the crap table. That’s what the LBC needs, a real friggin’ casino… none of this card club and pay-​per-​hand crap!

They are nice and all but they took forever to find me a job and I didn’t think it would be that hard since I was Admin assistant. Finally I almost got a job through them but I took a job I had found on my own. I would say give it a try but also apply at other places cause they might be a little slow at finding you anything.
