Pros
They took me in as a newly certified CNA.
Cons
I accepted the position on the understanding that it was supposed to be per diem because I needed the flexibility. They called me all of the time, even when I was already with a client. Ok, I'm grateful for the work. The next thing I know the recruiter is calling me and lecturing me about not answering the phone every time one of the staffers calls. He basically tells me that if I don't want the work they can just let me go and to remember that he took a chance on me by hiring a new grad. I explained that I was already working 40 hours a week when I had only wanted to work no more than 20 and the reason I wasn't answering all of the calls, that was because I was with a client and that's considered unprofessional. They also refused to call for a relief when the original relief cancelled, leaving me with a client for over 19 hours. I found out that it is standard practice for the recruiter to call you up and lecture you if you do not jump at their every command. You also have to monitor your paycheck because they will try to pay you less than what you're owed. There was recently a suit brought against them of which they settled. I received $15 but it's the point that they are shady.
