I have been with SM for almost a year now and have not had any luck yet. My contact found me a couple potential positions, put me through and that was it. I currently work with several other Staffing Agencies and this one is by far the worst one. As far as I'm concerned they are supposed to contact you with a position to see if it's something you'd like, and if it is, they will "introduce" you to the client. You can say no anytime you want. You are never pressured to say yes to any of these clients. I said 'no thank you' to a previous position... My contact kept telling me that I should take the position/phone call, that it would be such a great role for me, that accepting this would guarantee me at other XYZ Companies and that it wasn't far from my home at all..."only 12 miles from the city to be exact" Then I look up the company and it's 1.5 hours away...So I finally took the call for the phone interview only to find out it's a toy company no one has ever heard of and it would be a project by project/only when needed basis. So again, I said 'no thank you' to my contact at Silverman McGovern..and it stopped there.

Not once since then have I been contacted to see how I'm doing, or to even follow up with any positions. I emailed SEVERAL times to reach out and follow up on upcoming roles...but yet again, NO RESPONSE!!! The other 4 or 5 other agencies that I'm with will literally call you several times a day to follow up with you and let you know of certain positions that would be a fit. They will send you countless emails for positions....Silverman McGovern is such a WASTE OF TIME! They don't help you, they don't offer their services, and they don't even seem to care to see you succeed in placing a role for you.

Don't waste your time.. There are plenty of other Agencies to go with.
