What do you dislike about Robert Half?

horribly mistreated/ghosted after a month of onboarding. interviewed w/ client and RH in november 2021. got hired. did onboarding in Dec. was told orig. i would start 11/29/21. never heard back. then told by recruiter would start either 12/6 or 12/13 took WEEKS to do this onboarding for some reason. it's not me. i literally onboarded and took 5 other jobs, 5! in that month time frame both staffing and direct hire. i have worked and often work for MOST staffing agencies EXCEPT this one MULT TIMES A YEAR and never had this kind of hassle. recruiter asking me for my ssn on the phone to "give to the client" right out the gate even after i did onboarding docs, twice. thats not how it works. took so long to onboard i had to call a place for help to assit bc of website issues etc i finally gave it to him stupidly. did drug test. end of dec. by then. told me he would let me know on start date waiting to hear back but he and the 2nd recruiter ghosted me. wasted time. ash mccord. jeremy rios.

Describe the project or task Robert Half helped with:

We worked with Robert Half and have had a great experience. They are very proactive about staffing (calling to check in, sending me emails with employee profiles, etc). We are small and don’t hire in our accounting office often, but this is a great group of people and they give great service! Robert Half hires the best talent! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Robert Half?

They are very proactive and keep in touch frequently to assess our staffing needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Robert Half?

Because they are so proactive, the frequent check ins don’t work for everyone. I like it but i can see it driving another HR person crazy. Just be upfront with them about how frequently you want to be contacted and it will all work out beautifully. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I didn’t like anything. Four failed placements; no show, no show after hire; unable to complete tasks in time; decade old experienced individual. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lack of understanding of the company’s needs. Reps made minimal effort to place experienced personnel at our location and kept sending inappropriate individuals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Robert Half?

Robert Half was with me the whole step of the way to find me a suitable match to my talents, and made me feel engaged and a part of the process the whole way through. I was never offered any easily attainable positions outside my discussed skill sets just to fill a spot and a recruiters wallet on commissions, and it was evident how much they cared to take your individual situation into consideration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Robert Half?

The only thing I disliked about this firm was when it came time to work WITH them on hiring some talent in my eventual department, I found the rates to be pretty steep considering the positions I was looking to fill. I feel like they are very good with working with their placements, but their actual clients (the organizations they staff for) they are a little less willing to go the extra mile for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Robert Half:

I think if you are looking for professional talent, they are for sure your go-to firm to staff a position. They care and take an in-=depth approach towards finding the right fit, and work with both parties throughout the agreed upon time period diligently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Robert Half?

- Easy to contact and always available

- Dedicated account rep to manage resumes and candidate flow

- Good e-mail and phone follow up. I can ask them to switch only to e-mail on days where I am in meetings and can't be available to take a call

- Sources local talent effectively in the end Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Robert Half?

- The first set of candidates that flow through are usually not good. The recruiters take a little while to calibrate and tune the skills that our company is looking for. Sometimes I have to re-communicate the same job description and weed out candidates that are blatant misfits. After seeing the first 10 resumes, we are usually calibrated

- Sometimes can be pushy about making a hire. I understand this is the name of the business but hiring slow is important for all companies to make sure the decision is right. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Robert Half:

Make sure that you have a very strong job description with skills and qualities spelled out. Once you've done this, engage with your account rep and make sure they understand it. After they've trained their team, make sure you follow up and re-communicate the skills you're looking for. Reject bland resumes candidly, and force them to improve the search to meet the skills your company is looking for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
