Trades Labour Corporation (Edmonton) Reviews

If you're never get chance to get into the trade, it's the best place to start your career's!!!

They were super helpful, and wanted to help me get work. Had no complaints just needed me to have my sin number ready and complete a quick ten minute application. Best show up early to get work and show up at work!

What s the best time to show up at? Not sure when this place opens

Relied on this place for employment for almost a full year while laid off from my previous full time job. Always managed to get a job about 80% of the time. Staff were always friendly and courteous. Not the biggest or fanciest temp employment agency. But it's very efficient in getting people out the door with work.

All these people giving you 1 star have no good work ethic and are not reliable for being late. 5 stars for getting people a job.

Waste of time go somewhere else

Spent all last week seating around every morning. the woman recruiter at the front Alice or Angela treated me rudely and like i was the problem when asking questions. favourites go out while everyone else waits for no jobs. really needed to work but i wasted my time going to this place being made to feel like i do not matter

My experience with TLC was awesome. I called in an was told to come in and fill out an application and then go from there. Super simple. From there I was told to show up at 5:30 am to sign in. Everyone signs in order of first arrived so arriving early increases your chance of getting a job. I have to comment on how positve, kind, and awesome the dispatchers that I mainly dealt with are; in no particular order; Alex, Lindsay, Maria, and Paige. Thank you all for being so helpful and friendly in a time of uncertainty when I was so close to EI.

Honestly if you have your basic tickets and really need a job, show up here sober, respectful, early(and being one of the last ones to leave the room if there is no work that day helps too), and hardworking and you will get a job. If you do well at a place that needs a worker for an extended period of time, you could easily land yourself a permanent/semi-permanent job.

We all need to work and if you are out of work in these difficult times with a trades/construction background, you may be able to find what you need to get by with TLC; as did I.

Thank you TLC for providing a frontline and essential service to many; both those seeking labour and those seeking to work. I appreciate your service. :)

While they can get you a job, its really stressful when you have a recurring job that your told to come in at a later time for and after 2 weeks on it, you arrive at your later time and are told "oh, yea, you got taken off that crew".
Your given no reason and your left without work for the day because they couldn't bother to let you know sooner so you could go in for 5am.

4 stars cus its friendly but wish i could be sent out more but might just be the weather
