AppleOne Employment Services

3 months now and they didn’t get me a job. They are nice people but I don’t know if they don’t have jobs or what’s going on

I only visited AppleOne for their typing test services, nonetheless everything was great. I called to schedule an appointment and they offered me two appointment options for the following day, either 8am or 4pm.
I came in at 8am the following morning and was feeling a bit tired. Luckily, the secretary at the front said you get 3 chances at the typing test and at the end they will print out your highest WPM exam score. She also offered a cup of coffee, so sweet.
The typing test is $ 10. They ask whether you would like to take a 3 or 5 minute exam. (Always opt-​in for the 5 minute) Once you’re done with all 3 typing opportunities, the secretary will print out 3 copies of your score for you to keep. I wish I would’ve remembered her name, she was so helpful!

This office was friendly, very busy. I had to wait a while but they were able to see me right away. Tip: Call first and make an appointment. They don’t take walk-​ins.

I went in for a typing test. The person who I spoke with was very helpful and accommodating. Same with the front desk person. The person I spoke with said hi to me when I got there and made sure I was being being helped. Will go back again if ever I need another typing test.

Applied to jobs this agency advertised. I specifically applied to one w/​Becca Barb as recruiter because I previously saw a good review about her specifically. I was contacted, did online tests & went to office, completed all paperwork, video & had interview w/​Becca. She wanted to know where I had applied for jobs & where I had interviewed. (I didn’t tell her). This question is also on the online application. Since then she has not been helpful. Only called me for 1 very low paying, 2 day event job, which I couldn’t do because 1 of the days I had an interview (I got on my own). Since then, nothing. She’s not very good at returning calls & one rare occasion she did call back, she said ‘I encourage you to continue looking on your own’. So that tells me she has no interest in presenting my resume to clients & has no interest in helping me, period. I have good cust service experience/​skills from well known, large companies & had longevity at each. So she’s not going to tell me I’m not qualified to be presented/​placed. Becca also quizzed 1 of my work references, asking what agency does the referee’s company (my former co.) use? The nerve! My reference didn’t give the info she was asking & I trust what this person says. What this agency does is collect resumes. She tried to build her business contacts on my back! Becca was going to take any info I and my reference would give her – where I’ve applied & the co’s I’ve interviewed with & what agency my former company uses – & build her company client base but some other job seeker would be presented to them, get an assignment. No way! She needs to do her own leg work & build her company client base the old fashioned way. Either the agency stinks or it’s just this particular recruiter. Why put a job seeker through the entire application process if you have no intention of doing your best to help? What a waste of time

I used to be employed at another AppleOne brance (Brea) awhile back and it wasn’t so bad. After finishing up some college courses and going months without any luck finding a job, I decided to give this branch a chance since they were pretty close to home.
My experience here is pretty pleasant. I called them to set up an interview and was able to schedule one the next day. They had me come in and do some quick tests on the computer for assessment. Was later interviewed by one of their agent, Glenda. Glenda, aside from being pretty hot, was surprisingly helpful in helping me find a job. She always seem to be around when I needed to contact her and if not, there’s always someone else who is capable of helping me out with any questions I need. Within a week, Glenda had two interviews set up for me. A week after that, I started working as an internet researcher at some company in Irvine (super chill). They’re planning on transitioning me into a full time soon I think, which is really nice.
In short, AppleOne is pretty helpful company, but I might have just lucked out with a decent Agent, who knows.

This is a horrible Apple office. Actually, I’ve never had a positive experience with any Apple office I’ve signed with. This office was exceptionally bad though. I registered with them and never heard from them again. When I followed up with them, I was told that they’ve «submitted» me to many jobs over 3 months and have had zero response. Highly unlikely.

Had a great workshop today. Was given so many great tips on how to prepare for questions at an interview. This is a great company to work with!

I just attended a workshop for Navigating Your Career at the AppleOne office and found the information helpful and the staff speakers very positive and encouraging. In this job market every ounce of help and encouragement is needed.
A BIG THANK YOU to the entire staff at the AppleOne office.

Thank you to the staff at AppleOne Employment Services for conducting a great workshop today. It has been awhile since I have had to think about reworking my resume or interviewing so the tips I received today were helpful. I like the feeling that I can call the staff members at AppleOne and they would be willing to help me ‘tweak’ my resume or help me with interview practice.

I’ve been with this location for only a short amount of time, but so far its been great. Everyone here is friendly and knowledgable. I attended a wonderfull workshop with them today. let me tell you, it was very eye opening and gave me hope. I look forward to working with them even more in the future.

I have found that agencies are a good way to go when looking for employment. I have used other agenices in the past but this was by far one of my best experiences to date. I went it on a Monday and met with Glenda. She was very attentive and I could tell she was interested in helping me find employment.
During the first week Glenda called me with multiple jobs that fit my qualitications and pay requests. By week 2 she had sent me out on interviews and I was placed at a job.
I am currently still working at that job and will be placed here on a permanent basis.
I had a great overall experience at Appleone with Glenda. She works for you and with you trying to get you job placement. I would highly recommend her and was very pleased with my Appleone experience.
