Update (8 months later Feb 2020) - I have updated...

Update (8 months later Feb 2020) - I have updated my review from 5 stars to 3. I wish TGHR was a little better at communicating with and advocating for their placements. I was/am not the only temp with them in my department and none of us heard from our recruiters. No feedback, no checking in, no encouragement, no advocacy. Once you place with them, they are pretty much done with you. The only people I talked to from TGHR was the payroll and admin assistant (who were great). Other temps on our team with other placement companies had/have someone in their corner, rooting for them, soliciting feedback from the employer. When other people have been hired on, their reps (all different companies) were genuinely excited, helped negotiate salary, followed up, brought treats and genuine congratulations, etc. Like career partners, not like you're a pair of shoes or a couch. When I questioned my recruiter why there was radio silence throughout my placement and not a word when I was made an offer, she ignored that, and said they send a congratulations card and I needed to be patient (I found out I would be offered a position a month ago - I assume they were told around that time as well). Not what I was asking, but it's also been over 2 weeks since my official start date and still no card - at this point I don't care about that because it's not genuine. I have been disappointed with their hands-off approach. I expected a smaller, local, woman-owned company would have a little more to offer their placements, but I have been impressed with recruiters from other national companies, and not so much with the locally owned company. If you just want to be placed and forgotten about, you might not mind. I did. The 5-6 other people on my team do/did. They always paid on time, so that's good. I was a great employee, and I made them look good - never missed work, called in sick, or was late. You would think they'd be trying harder to keep people like me coming through their doors for placement so they have quality candidates to offer their clients. As it is now, I would not really recommend any of my friends to them.
