Pros

Amusing to watch telephone tough guys pretend they're real "players" while they read prepared scripts to client companies and waste candidates' time with bogus job postings. It's entertaining but after about a week you realize what a bunch of frauds they are and can start marketing yourself to other companies (while removing RHI from your own resume).

Cons

You don't want any involvement with RHI on your resume. If you make the mistake of doing business with them in any capacity (as a candidate, client or employee) ensure it's very short term then move on. If you're a candidate, you need to understand their job posting are FAKE. They post them to get you in the door and talk about where you're currently working and where you're interviewing so they know where to market themselves. Don't believe me? Go look at their job postings today....then take another look at their postings 6 months to a year from now. There's a reason they look the same...because they are the same fake job that doesn't exist. Look for buzzwords and cliché phrases like "huge upside potential" and "rapidly growing". Been using that garbage for years.

Pros

Did not have a good experience from beginning. 1st day was snowing and I set up early. I got the the client site and sat in the lobby. When Breanna arrived, she stated "I should have sat in my car and waited for her, she was late, there was an accident" Very rude.

Cons

Staff I dealt with are clueless with ADA, EEOC and labor laws, It became apparent due to my experience. The person I worked for sent me an email "don't hire anymore blacks, they don't show up" And reiterated the information in person the next day. I felt very uncomfortable and uneasy. I stated "this is racism". I was fired the following week. I got a call and was told my assignment was terminated. I told the female that called me about the emails and what had transpired. No follow up. The key I had had to be returned. I returned it to the client site in a white envelop and took a picture, I slid it through the door. I did not feel comfortable with going to Robert Half office after my experience.
