What suggestions do you have for management?

"I would suggest that you hire/train your relationship managers to align and acquaint them with the business in which they are communicating with folks in that part of the business. I found it frustrating to have a review with someone who had no idea what I did or even know a few of the buzz words."

Executive Administrative Assistant

"It's worth registering for Kelly, you get some great job opportunities!"

What don't you like about working at Kelly Services?

"they recently changed their vacation pay policy and if you work for them long enough to qualify for vacation pay, you don't' get it until the end of the year.

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Change the vacation pay policy."

"I can't remember any negative situations, although for some of the abuse the substitute teachers take especially from students in urban schools the pay seems low especially for someone with 4-6 years of higher education."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Perhaps institute a graduated pay-scale so that if a teacher is asked to work in a less than desirable school, He or she would earn some type of bonus pay for that assignment."

"Add everything you can into your information section. Be professional. Dress the part, your interview with Kelly is only the first interview, you still need to interview with the client who may or may not hire you, if Kelly isn't impressed, why would they send you as their first shot at a clients job interview."

What don't you like about working at Kelly Services?

"Potential for being let go by a company without any justification."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"This is a good place to go to find skilled workers who might not otherwise make it through the automated scanning process that HR might be using. You can get great employees from real world experience that you would miss if only looking for the exact match of a hastily written Job Description. Especially where the responsibilities of a job are somewhat fluid."
