I applied online. I interviewed at United Personnel
Interview
The process was thorough, but everyone was always personable and accommodating. The staff at United always treated me as a person not only as a candidate. They seemed entirely willing to work with me to find me the best position for me.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would you describe your communication abilities with others?
I applied in-person. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at United Personnel (Springfield, MA) in July 2013
Interview
You are asked to visit the agency to complete employment forms and to meet with a recruiter. They are the ones that go over the position you will be submitted for based on what they feel your qualifications are best suited for. They then may or may not send you to interview with the company you will be working at, sometimes they just tell you when to report for your starting date (I assume that this is how the employer prefers the hiring selection process to be, is to let the agency choose who they feel is the best match for the position) once you have interviewed or started the job, it's up to you to make it work and get hired!
