Review of The McIntyre Group

(---UNPROFESSIONAL---) I wish I can say that I had the same experience as Jacob and Diane. I am a professional with 10+ years of experience and have worked in some top organizations. But I do NOT have my college degree. I was laid off last year due to cutbacks, applied like a mad woman and received a call from Kelly Demassi at the McIntyre Group wanting me to come in about current job opportunities. BIG MISTAKE! I get in there and wait for over 30 mins...by this time I am a little PO'd then finally this girl Phoenix or it could hae been Phoebe walks in who handles temporary staffing - I told her I was not interested in temping and she then gets snippy with me and pretty much rushes me along. Kelly then comes in15 minutes later, looks at my resume and says "Oh, you do not have a college degree, come talk to me when you get one." and begins to wrap up until I ask her about the so called "jobs" they had me come in for. She then replies "Oh, I'm sorry but you're not qualified." WHY did you have me come in then??? I will never go back to that god awful firm nor recommend them, especially Phoenix/Phoebe or Kelly to anyone looking for work. I am now working with Execu Search, Michael Page, and Merritt Staffing and am very satisfied with their recruiters . I've had 5 interviews in which I am currently still in the process with 3. Keeping my fingers crossed!
