A great start for people that might not be aware

In the Philadelphia, PA. area, I have dealt with a place called Mercer Staffing. No relation to the flatbed trucking company. They got me a job in one day, paying $15.50 an hour to start. After 30 days, the place I was being sent to offered me $25.50 an hour, if they hired me directly. The only problem I had was I couldn't do the job properly. I'm going on 50, and can hustle with the best of them out there, but going up and down the loading ramp, delivering paper products to food places, was not going to last long for me. My muscles could take it, but my knees were paying a heavy toll. I was just there till I had a better offer come through, which took about a month and a half.

It was a good experience in general, but that was about 6 years ago. They were located just outside of Philly, toward the Valley Forge area, but I heard they moved into the city a while back. Overall, a good place to deal with.

 

I always wondered about 3pty recruiters. Are they worth the time or would someone be better off looking on their w=own?
