Do not believe the 5 stars reviewers,
I went in for over three hours and aced every test they could throw at me, and I can't reach them to follow up.
No wonder every reviewer is so frustrated with this place.
Truly liked the environment and my recruiter Brittney Rerecich. Talk about energy, attentiveness and determination- Inspirational!!!
3.2018 Update: After a year of being in their temp pool, weekly asking for work, they assigned me 2 positions. One manager @ a company lied to my recruiter about something I didn't say, and I never was placed with another company after. Boly Welch insisted that wasn't why... But a year later, & that...
What a disappoitment. I called the very next day after leaving my last employer to schedule an appointment to meet with them since they had a recruiter position that was bilingual. I need it we responded to the ad and call to schedule an appointment the lady at the front didn't give her name didn't ...
My recruiter Brice was very attentive and frequently emailed me with jobs and answers to any questions I had. He outlined what to do on my first day so I knew exactly what to do and where to go. I'm thrilled to have worked with Brice and plan to use him in the future.
Sally Williams truly listens to what employees and employers are looking for and matches them perfectly. All too often, staffing agencies try to plug a square peg in a round hole just to fill a position. But not Sally at Boly Welch! She not only matched me up with my needs, she met my wish list too!...
There simply are too many good things to say about working with Boly:Welch and in particular Abby P. The office is beautiful and the administrative assistant is highly qualified and professional. Although I did not get his name, I was very pleased to meet him and appreciated the skill with which he ...
I feel so lucky to have found Boly Welch. They welcomed me immediately and worked WITH me to improve my resume, cover letters, and interview skills. Turns out it IS possible to be prepared and well-armed to join the job market. Jen deftly pinpointed my strengths and weaknesses and prioritized my pre...
It is truly a special thing when an HR company is capable of changing your life by helping you find a perfect career match. Brittney Rerecich is just one of the wonderful people at Boly Welch who can and will help you do this. It is so apparent how much she loves her job and loves the people she hel...
Phenomenal experience! From the first email, everyone was great to work with! I cannot recommend Rosemary Schwimmer enough! She was professional, kind, and worked hard to find a great fit for me! She took the time to understand what work environments would be the perfect fit, not only with the firm ...
Had an amazing experience working with Natalie Hamachek and the Boly Welch staff!! They found me a job that suited my needs and got me to work there right away. Natalie made sure that my needs were being met and did an amazing job advocating for my on my behalf. I got hired as a full time at my new ...
I couldn't have asked for a more positive and effective experience than I had with Rosemary. Within 72 hours of first contacting BolyWelch, Rosemary had landed me an interview for a temporary position--even though she was out of town on vacation! Within a month of deciding to look for something perm...
I have worked with Brittney at Boly:Welch to find to two amazing jobs in the Portland area. She is an absolute delight to work with. She's incredibly knowledgeable on the local legal community and helped me to find a firm that is truly a good fit for me.
She was supportive through my entire searc...
I am also surprised by the negative responses on here. I was put in touch with Boly:Welch with relatively little admin experience, and they were able to help groom me into entry level at not one but two temporary positions at law firms, which were followed by a 3rd temporary assignment that turned ...
Boly Welch is simply the best staffing agency. Heather Gordon specifically is is efficient, communicates clearly and is a pleasure to work with. The Boly Welch team really is the ideal agency, matching industry leaders with the best candidates.
I was a recent transplant to Portland and struggling to find a job opportunity that I was truly interested in. A friend of mine heard of my predicament and suggested I go speak with someone at Boly:Welch. I took them up on their offer and never looked back. I worked with Heather and Gwen and found ...
Brittney was so wonderful to work with. Her energy knows no bounds, and I greatly appreciated her transparency throughout the entire process. I had a bit of a unique situation in terms of what would fit best with my schedule and future plans, and she approached the problem with creativity and determ...
I just graduated from college a couple of weeks ago and I was having a hard time finding a job. A friend suggested that I should meet with someone at Boly:Welch for help in my job search. When I first went to Boly:Welch, I met with Brittney Rerecich and I was very impressed with her out-going demean...
Boly:Welch has amazing resources for job seekers. I attended three of their hosted Zoom meetings and it greatly helped me with my job search. Shout out to Corbin and Abby for hosting the meetings and being a wealth of information!
I felt really lost in my job search previous to this as I hadn't ha...
Wow, what an awesome experience I've had with Cory at Boly Welch! Within a couple of weeks of sending in my resume, I was scheduled very quick interviews (1st and 2nd with same company) & offered a great job the day after the 2nd interview. Cory has offered me great advice for resume revisions and i...
I worked with Gwen Rudolph to help me find a paralegal job in Portland. Within weeks I was interviewing at many interesting places and was quickly given an offer of employment with a starting salary at the top of my asking range. Would definitely recommend that anyone looking for a position work wit...
Rosemary is wonderful. Within two days of our first conversation, she had arranged several interviews. She connected me to the right people for the job I wanted, and she assisted throughout the interviewing and offer process. I'm excited to start next week!
I have nothing but good things to say about working with Brittney! She is insightful, cheerful and placed me with a great job. I really felt that she understood what I was looking for, career-wise and working environment wise, and took the time to really find me the right fit. I definitely would rec...
Brittney Rerecich is an amazing person to have in your corner. She really listened to what I wanted and helped me find the PERFECT fit opportunity. Always responsive, she kept an eagle eye out looking for just the right position for me. She was also super supportive even when I had a death in the fa...
Sara Vox is very close to the truth. The employment postings are possibly a marketing tool.
Kara was so helpful throughout the process. Great company that will help you find great work possibilities.
Rosemary was an absolute pleasure to work with. She expertly guided me through the entire interview process and was a great resource for my job search. I m now happily employed thanks to Rosemary s wonderful assistance.
I wanted to relocate from the southern end of the state and had been looking for a job for several months, with no luck. I met with Brittney R. and that turned out to be a turning point in my life. Brittney's no nonsense, straight-forward approach was exactly the right style for me. She found me ...
I had a wonderful experience working with Rosemary Schwimmer who worked to secure me a position at my dream firm with my dream requests. I recently relocated to Oregon from California and had taken the Oregon State Bar. I started working with Rosemary while waiting for bar results and she was suppor...
I was very impressed with the professionalism, communication and organization with Boly Welch. I highly recommend working with them when seeking a job. Their client list speaks volumes with the opportunities one has. And as one seeking employment the recruiters involved replied in a timely detaile...
Friendly, helpful, professional staff at this temp agency.
I migrated to Portland from Sydney Australia two years ago. My biggest fear was finding a job that matched what I had in Sydney. After a couple of weeks of being in Portland I decided to join Boly Welch recruitment agency to assist me find a suitable job.
I was introduced to Brittney Rerecich, ...
Julie form Boly Welch is okay. But not a good experience. I would not use them.
Absolutely the best recruiters in town. They have different individuals for whatever your specialty may be, and they work tirelessly to find you something that will be a great fit for you!
Heather Mathews specifically helped me in my placement and she was a pleasure to work with. Their whole team...
I have had the pleasure of working with Gwen several times over the years. I sincerely appreciate her professional approach, efficiency, and supportive and calming approach. She goes above and beyond to match candidates with the right position to ensure success for all involved. Thanks you Gwen for...
Absolutely terrible! They want to charge for coming to our company for a few hours, for which more than 1/2 was a lunch we paid for, and the rest was them describing services that they really don't perform. The rates are through the roof. And then if you do hire them for consulting... they just w...
I recently sat in on their Boly:Welch 101: Where to Start Your Job Search workshop (video conference) and found it very helpful! The team leading the session were very candid and made it a comfortable environment for asking questions and engaging with the content.
Working with Brittney was an incredible experience. She is a joy to work with, and I couldn't recommend a recruiter more highly. From the moment we began my job search, she was looking out for my best interests, and made sure to match me with employers whose needs were in line with mine. I loved ...
Not a great experience. Disappointed in my recruiters communication, depth of knowledge and moreover efforts. Sorry....won't be using you all going forward.
I had reached out to Boly:Welch during a recent career/job change. My meeting with the senior recruiter was extremely helpful and what most impressed me was how direct, honest and to the point she was. This makes such a huge difference because it was decided that pursuing a position through Boly:We...
Roxanne and Kirsten were both very helpful in finding me my new job. They took the time to consistently present me with job opportunities that were specifically tailored to the things I wanted in a job. Roxanne also gave me valuable advice in preparation for my interviews. She really cared about my ...
Huh.... Just by simply reading through some of the more "positive" reviews, I can see they are clearly being written by the owner.
Awful AWFUL temp agency, if you can call a place that treats you like crap and never finds you work a "temp agency", cuz I sure don't consider this place to be anythi...
If you've been struggling to find a job and the stress is consuming you, this is the place to go. I tried searching for months and within a week I had Roxanne helping me apply for 3 different jobs while also recommending ways to improve my resume. This place is amazing and I wish I had reached out s...
I didn't know what to expect before I reached out to Brittney Rerecich, but what I got far surpassed anything I could have imagined. Brittney's advice is realistic and encouraging. It's apparent that she listens even when she's multitasking. On top of that, the job I got is phenomenal. She actually ...
I actually wish I had reached out to Boly Welch sooner than I did. They were really able to hone my application packages and my interview techniques so that when I got a potential placement I was able to really perform and land the job.
My primary point person, Rosemary Schwimmer, director of leg...
I am starting to suspect, as others have suggested, that B:W collects resumes based on postings for jobs that don't actually exist. I've sent resumes and well written cover letters in response to positions that I am perfectly qualified for and have not even received a request to set up a phone inte...
Rosemary Schwimmer is a gem to work with. She is persistent, supportive, and responsive. Rosemary helped me find a perfect position with a quality firm that I could not be more excited to join. I highly recommend her services!
Trying to find a job in a growing city like Portland is hard, especially if you're from out of state. I feel so lucky to have been helped by the wonderful staff at Boly:Welch, especially Gwen Rudolph.
Gwen was dedicated to helping me find a job that I was excited about, and she kept me updated ev...
Brittney was an absolute pleasure to work with. I was in the process of moving to Portland from out of state and she was able to secure an interview for me within days of contacting Boly:Welch. The best recruiter experience I've had in a long time. Thank you for finding a great match for me, and int...
Brittney and team found and helped me land my dream job. I could not have done it without them even though I have over 20 years experience in my field. Not only did they find me a position at one of, if not THE, top Firms in my field, but they were indispensible in helping me become more marketabl...
They are the best temping agency I've ever worked with. They get you real work, that utilizes your skills, and they are extremely supportive and professional. They also work hard to find you full time, permanent jobs that match where you want to go. It's still temp work, but comparatively, I have to...
Brittney at Boly:Welch is amazing! She has fantastic connections and had me interviewing immediately, perfect job offer in a matter of weeks! If you are a highly skilled professional seeking work, let them do the work for you.
I am so thankful Brittney and the whole Boly:Welch team for finding me a position. I am so excited and thankful. Brittney was great about communicating with me and my prospective employers, and was an awesome cheerleader. I hope I don't need to use them again, at least not for a very long time, but ...
I can honestly say...I am super surprised by what some people are writing in their reviews about this organization. I have been both a candidate and a client over the last 7 or so years and can't say enough fantastic things about this company.
That all being said, they are not like other staffing...
I have been working with Brittney at Boly:Welch for almost two years. She got me my first job downtown and I was over the moon. After less than a year, I found myself unhappy at this job and looking to find something different. I was nervous to call her since she was the one who placed me there and ...
Please be very aware of this company. I worked with Gwyn and she was overtly disappointed when I didn't go with someone she had set me up with and am curious if she had a hand in sabotaging future interviews that I went on that I thought went very well, but subsequent to me rejecting the first comp...
Gwen at Boly Welch was recommended to me by two people and I could not have been more happy with her as my recruiter and just wished I had contacted her sooner. I had just moved to Portland so was unfamiliar with the area and what opportunities were out there for my field. We met and discussed my ...
I had a WONDERFUL experience working with Sally Williams at Boly Welch. Not only was she genuine, and extremely easy to talk to, she helped find me the exact type of job I was looking for. Until working with Boly Welch, I found the process of finding a job stressful and was getting limited leads for...
Boly Welch is unique and true professionals in what they do. I am so glad I found organization that isn't like many staffing mill places. My recruiter, Andrew Beeks is an asset to this organization. In short period of time he was able to match my skills to the position that I currently enjoy very mu...
I had the pleasure of working with Rosemary Schwimmer at Boly:Welch. She was a delight to work with; she is smart, friendly, quick to reply, and knows the community well! Would recommend to anyone in a heartbeat!
Boly: Welch team did an amazing job helping me with my job research. thank you for your professionalism and compromise during my process of finding a great job.
Brittney Rerecich is absolutely a pleasure to work with. She is very professional, personable and gets things done. Love it! She genuinely listened and considered my goals and wants as well as was able to find a great opportunity for me. Brittney is nothing less than amazing!
I worked with Rosemary Shwimmer after being laid off due to Covid-19 at the end of March. I was nervous to be in a such an unknown position, so I gave Boly Welch a try after hearing from a colleague that Rosemary was excellent at her job. After my first conversation, I knew I had contacted the right...
At Boly:Welch, I felt like I connected with a team of professionals who took the time to get to know me and my skill set, and who worked with me to find temporary positions and permanent opportunities that suit my experience and interests.
My primary contact has been Heather Gordon, who has a won...
They had one interview with me and never called me back. I do not recommend.
I am so happy I came to Boly:Welch for my recruiting needs. They are extremely thorough in their intake process and are sure to get a good idea of what you're looking for. I worked with Roxanne and Elizabeth and they were amazing. They were very sure to find opportunities that were aligned with both...
Honestly, I wouldn't recommend them. They never called me back, never replied my emails, never gave me the respect and talk to me. Every time I call they are rude with me, and tell me "I only have to apply once by sending the resume to the email mentioned". They think they are the only temp agency o...
Rosemary Schwimmer was an excellent resource and did a great job as a recruiter. I contacted her for assistance in finding employment while working full time myself. She was able to match me with a firm that was a great fit within a few weeks of meeting her. She was responsive to all communicati...
A colleague of mine referred me to Jen Lind at Boly:Welch when my contract was about to end about two years ago. I didn't have any luck at that time with them and found a job on my own but still kept in touch. Fast forward 1.5 years later, I'm on the job hunt again and reached out to Jen. I was very...
Brittney Rerecich is absolutely AMAZING to work with. She is gets things done! She is personable and genuinely listened to all my goals and wants in my career to help me find a great opportunity and workplace. Coming in during the pandemic, I was hesitant that we would even find anything, but she wo...
Looking for a job is never fun, but it can be so much easier with Boly:Welch helping you out. I worked with Gwen Rudolph and felt listed to, supported and guided throughout the process. She helped with my resume and gave me the right food for thought as I moved on to the next job in my career. Sh...
Fantastic company to work with. The staff is extremely professional and very welcoming. Natalie helped me find a position almost immediately after meeting with her. I was unsure of exactly what I was looking for in terms of career placement and with her guidance and insight I was able to locate a fa...
Rosemary Scwimmer is amazing! She was amazingly helpful and patient and encouraging helping me find the right job. She is very open, clear, honest and super informed about what's what and who's who in Portland's legal community. Five stars!
I had a great experience working with Brittney Rerecich. She was quick to respond to all of my calls, texts, and emails. She was patient with my many questions, and incredibly knowledgeable about Portland law firms and their various workplace cultures. She was frank and honest about each position an...
I had extremely high hopes about this company. I interviewed with Roxanne, one of the recruiters, about a role that they had advertised that I applied for. I met all of the requirements for the job, offered a comparable minimum salary requirement based on my experience and the average pay for that p...
Very happy I connected with Boly:Welch after moving to Portland. Both Kirsten and Hannah have been extremely kind and helpful and I begin my first contract with Nike tomorrow because of them. Highly recommend them for help finding your next role!
If Boly Welch represents professionalism in Portland we should all be terrified.
After applying to multiple jobs and not getting anywhere the lovely staff at Boly Welch sent me a tart email to discourage I apply again. Let this not be confused with the generic email they send, the one in question...
I had the pleasure of working with Sally Williams, and I cannot possibly say enough good things about her, or my experience with Boly:Welch in general. I had never worked with an employment agency before, and had no idea what to expect, but from the second I sat down with Sally, I felt like a weight...
I have spent the past year or so aggressively job hunting and interviewing without any progress. The experience of doing this time and time again without any results is exhausting. Over the year I have been applying to jobs through Boly:Welch because they were quality positions, but, I was never a...
I sent my resume in to Boly:Welch a day before I was called in for an interview. I met with Brittney and Roxanne who were both very helpful. I left my interview with Roxanne telling me she had a job in mind and would try to set up an interview. I got the job the next morning! She was fast and caring...
Interviewed last Friday with them. They lined up an interview the same day with an outstanding company. Job offer today. It worked great for me.
Ryan at Boly:Welch is amazing! I felt like he really had my back and knew what I was looking for. He is very on top of all the details that I needed to know for interviews, etc. and he helped me find the right placement at Nike.
I worked with Brittney Rerecich and was able to obtain a position at a law firm relatively quickly. Brittney really listens to what you're looking for and keeps all that in mind when she is placing you. Also, right from the beginning, she let me know she thought I was a strong candidate and I wor...
In less than a month of contacting Boly Welch through a referral from a fellow job seeker, I was interviewed by Boly Welch, sent on two interviews for the same position, and offered a position with an engineering firm with excellent growth opportunities. I have gone through almost 6 months of straig...
I worked with Rosemary Schwimmer here and she was amazing! She was very responsive and extremely organized! She is an invaluable resource.
I worked at a staffing agency for 5 years, so my standards and expectations are high. I first met Kim Barnes for an interview, and within a week she was contacting me for positions. Kim then took a leave of absence, and I worked with Cory and Heather. All three were wonderful to work with, kept my r...
Very professional experience from start to finish! Worked with Brice, who kept constant communication, and was able to place me quickly at the exact company I wanted to work at.
I cannot recommend Boly:Welch enough. I searched diligently for a job for 6 weeks with no responses or recognition that I had even applied, so I decided to reach out to Boly:Welch. They were incredibly helpful and communicative from the get-go. I had the pleasure of working with Roxanne who asked ab...
I had the pleasure of working with Heather at Boly:Welch while job hunting earlier this year. Their philosophy is to not only find the right candidate for the companies they are hired by but to also find a job that fits your personal needs and wants. Heather was attentive and quick to answer all of ...
Rosemary was wonderful to work with. She provided me with valuable guidance and great support.
I worked with Brittney Rerecich and Kati Newsome. If you are lucky enough to have a chance to work with either of them, you will be in great hands. Brittney is a relentless advocate and pleasure to be around. Kati always kept me in the loop about exciting projects at great companies. In the end, the...
I was interested in returning to the legal field and was paired up with Brittney Rerecich. Working with her was such a positive experience! Brittney immediately had several interviews lined up, was always available for questions, and had great feedback. I'd highly recommend Boly Welch, especially Br...
Ryan Cochrane at Boyl:Welch is a phenomenal recruiter and so fun to work with. He made the whole process so seamless and eventually helped me land at my target company, Nike. He does a great job of listening to your feedback and setting you up for success in your interviews. My highest recommendatio...
Very professional placement company. Great team. I highly recommend
Roxanne really helped me stand out from the competition which allowed me to secure a great position! Everyone is very helpful, professional and really involved in the process from start to finish.
I went to work for them right after my husband got laid off. They had a job for me the next day. They were great and continued to call me even after he went back to work. I was staying home with my oldest son so I had no desire to work once he was working again. I've considered going back to the...
Brittney Rerecich is amazing!
She's super positive and bubbly. She found me jobs I wouldn't have known about, or wouldn't have been able to get an interview for, had she not made sure I got in the door.
Even when a job placement or interview wasn't ideal, she always stayed positive and motivated a...
Brittney was such a pleasure to work with! She helped me navigate the job market and get the job I wanted (at a great pay rate)! She was amazing at pin pointing my skillset while taking my personal requirements/desires of my dream job seriously. 10/10 would recommend Boly Welch!!
Yet another very lukewarm agency. Natalie Hamacheks, albeit very nice, was never proactive with her communication and required constant communication to be kept on her radar. Any opportunities were pipeline and never came to fruition. If you're looking to babysit adults for your placement needs, t...
