I love the agency but too many districts are way too far. The agency says that punctuality is important, but most of the areas are difficult in finding. I also dont like when they send a position at 9 a.m., need you somewhere at 10 a.m., and it takes over an hour to get there. I wish I could get more positions near me.
Natasha O’Connell has been my recruiter for quite some time. Not only is she awesome, she is ready and willing to help anytime. She coaches and prepares you for the interview. She goes over the resume and makes final recommendations to get you completely ready for the job. I’ve never met anyone like her. Not only is she a fabulous recruiter, she has a heart and she cares. That, I never found in any recruiter before, except for her.Natasha, thank you for all your help, support and care. You are the best.Susan L.
Very professional staffing agency. Lots of support throughout the application, interview, and placement processes. (I even requested and got a wake-up call one morning I was concerned I was too tired to hear my alarm.) Pay is competitive. Lots of work. Definitely recommend.
Very good and supportive former employer. If you are a Registered Nurse who is wondering what will I do next? I strongly recommend you check out Tempositions and the options they have available , you may be pleasantly surprised. They are a supportive and accessible team and, I recommend them, highly, without reservation after 2 and 1/2 years of steady and gainful employment.
Working for School Professionals has been a great professional development experience while I attain my masters and allows me to get familiar with a all grade levels. The flexibility of schedule a is a key reason I joined and the staff is really helpful, patient and friendly.
I have been dealing with Tempositions for years with no problems. My current employer who I have been with almost 4 years was assigned to me by tempositions. This agency will do what they can for you but you have to call and ensure availability not always waiting on them to call.
My wife was called for an interview and they did not even check her resume. She did not have a teaching experience and still Temp positions called her and wasted her time to later tell her she’s not having the right experience. When my wife questioned, they said some intern reviewed her CV and it was a mistake. Poor job Temp positions, please value candidates time and effort and do not call for the interview if the skills are NOT a match. DO YOUR DUE DILIGENCE AND SCREEN RESUMES ACCURATELY.My wife was also treated badly and the Temp positions staff was not respectful.Candidates - Please be aware and confirm 110% times before traveling for your interviews.NOT RECOMMENDED AND WE DONT ENDORSE THIS COMPANY until they improve their work ethics and operations!!! And please talk with RESPECT to your candidates and value time.
Very UNPROFESSIONAL. They’re hiring people and giving them inaccurate information! I went to an interview at a hospital(during Covid-19) I was told by the employer that this company keeps telling people the wrong information to get them to work. Once I accepted the offer they changed the pay rate stating there were changes when in fact, it was all a lie to get me to work in the hospital. Her name is Cristina Cruz , just be careful with risking your lives at a time like this. And I will continue to write this review because it isn’t right for the people like me who wants to actually help while I am trying to survive.
A company that offers actual and practical work opportunities for a wide range of professions. Great rates and consistent opportunities to fine tune your skills. Would recommend for those looking for a close up personal experience in the educational system. Great rates, Great incentives, and available opportunities in all five boroughs.
Absolutely the best company for temps. Very professional on the telephone and in person. I am very happy to have registered with them and best of all, they know me and try their best to keep me busy with work. Through TemPositions I have acquired clients who always ask for me, but it would not have been possible without the dedication and professionalism of their staff. A great place to find work and become a regular.
Been with this company through out the years and had my ups and downs with some staff but overall this company gave me great opportunities and helped me through many situation . This is a great back up plan and will get you out of a bind. Be proactive, have drive and seek out the opportunities with your schedule planning and you will be fine.
Thank you Tempositions ,love working as a substitute UPK teacher,truly enjoying the experience. Highly recommended👌🏾 Also special thank you to Ruby for being so patient with me during the hiring process. Lastly Alyssa your amazing everyday she makes sure I have an assignment ❤
So many loop holes that are not covered prior to bringing a candidate on board.One, they never stated I would then have to go through a selection/evaluation(?) process after the application is submitted to ensure I am a good fit for the position. They also have you paying prior to even selecting you, which makes the Company look questionable (scam?). Lastly all this red tape; something always has to be adjusted. Make the process easier if you want to have people join you, not only that be supportive.
I have been working with Tempositions for over a month now and I am very pleased with the professionalism of the company and the interest and courtesy of their staff. The jobs I have been provided are great as well. I highly recommend this company to work for if one needs extra temporary work.
I love working with this company. They are very professional, respectful , great communication and they give you details of where to be and what the client expects . They have great companies that they partner you with. They expect the same from the team; for us to be professional, sharp, punctual and be an excellent employee while we are at the locations.
I went on a job interview with one of their clients rather I say her client because the associate thought she owned the company and the nurses, and the client said I appeared on drugs granted I am on prescription medication that affects my behavior granted the associate went with it although I have never met this woman face to face and this was my first interview with them. Granted I cried my eyes out and contemplated suicide. This company has no compassion for ill people of any kind and should be placed out of business for their lack of compassion, presumptuousness, and cruelty. I would list the woman’s name but her name gives me PTSD over the whole ordeal.
I have been working for Tempositions Health for about 4 months now and I like the assignments that I have been able to work. I have been able to obtain steady shifts, and enjoy the work I am offered. I also enjoy working with the staff at job sites, as well as, the other employees at Tempositions I frequently work with at job sites. I hope my experience working for Tempositions continues to improve in the future.
If youre looking for a professional company that is consistent then look else where. Once enrolled you can go from weeks to months to ever being offered an assignment. Depending on whom yore assigned to you may even have childish like conversations with them concerning issues that you bring up. I will no longer wish to do business with such a staffing agency. Good luck to those entering have a backup!!
I think the company is great because we are able to do charter schools and upk. The reason why I gave it 3 stars is because it is not fair that these schools can cancel last minute. I feel that is not fair if you take a job and they cancel the morning of when you on your way to go there. I feel that they should have consequences the same way subsitute teachers in the company has consequences if we call out last minute. I also feel like the prices need to increase because we work long hours for $100 and that is not enough. As minimum wage increase I feel the position for teacher should raise.
Terrible. I signed up to join this staffing firm several months ago and its now October amd I have not gotten even a phone call. They made me sign and fill out so much information on their computer system in what felt like an hour. And since then, nothing. No calls, no e-mails, no nothing. Just a waste of time. Dont bother with them.
There can never be enough thanks that I can give to TemPositions for giving me the chance to work for and with people from all walks of life. My agent, Madeline Torres is a godsend. I feel that through her I have been given a new lease on life and I am forever indebted to her for her hard work. Thank You.
Love working for this groupnthey have provided me with the tools to keep track of the work order they pay on time andnhave kept me busy. I have no complaint and totally recommend them to all.looking for work. As substitute teacher they have provided me with work almost everyday...awesome group cant say that enough...
NYC location: offices are beautiful, my interviewer (Dana Jefferson) was very professional, warm and friendly. She made me feel at ease, which at a job interview, thats really something! Ever since then, Dana Jefferson was my handler at tempositions and she is the very definition of a professional. I Give tempositions 5 stars!
This company is horrible!! I’ve had the worst experience working with Tempositions. Every single person in that office are very rude, from the receptionists to the supervisors . None of them do not want to assist or give work. When you call your assigned rep they are never at their desk and never gets back to you after leaving a memo taken from a very disgusting woman. If I could I wouldn’t even give them that one star. Don’t apply .
I definitely recommend Tempositions Agency.My agent Tricia Brown is an amazing person. She is very professional and efficient. What makes this agency shine is that they actually assign you to the jobs you request and the location. Other agencies seem to assign you in manner that causes you to question whether theyve actually read your desired position. It was a pleasure to work for Tempositions!!!!
School professionals is a very good place to work especially if you are at your beggining.Employers are very nice and helpful.You have the opportunity to choose where and when to work.I will suggest school professionals to everyone who wants to have a teaching carrier who didnt started yet.
This company is terrible.Everything I say in this post is truth and I have proof. Its a fight club between existing temps and new ones that are hired at a lesser rate. When a new temp wants to get hired, they have that temp and staff start attacking you. The attacks are the following: 1) School Professional staff would send you to the most problematic sites. Staff would have kids with severe behavioral problems disrespect or challenge the worker, to have an excuse to end the assignment. Also the school staff will accuse the worker of something, so the worker is forced to work for less pay at other assignments.2)most assignments dont start till 9am but the school would have you come in as early 7am. You will continously get early jobs like this if you live at least 1 hour and 15 min away. And you cant be late now. I have been sent to LONG ISLAND, QUEENS Close to the airport, SOUTH BRONX, and i live in brooklyn (only had 4 assignments in bklyn during the 6 months).3)the schools or the staff giving you assignments would want you to sleep with individuals to keep your job. i met a guy from east brooklyn on the subway.i didnt give him my number, by i took his. The next day SCHOOL PROFESSIONALS sent me a job in east brooklyn for 2 days. I clicked on the job within seconds, but it was already taken. I guess it could have been mines had i given my number. the job was sent on sunday, fired tuesday.4)none of the long term work assignments given last till the end. unless your a relative or friend of a school professional staff or your sleeping around for it. Example: i was able to get my assignment extended and the worksite to pay me more money. I asked for more money because I was not given a 30 min break and my prep was used to help the teacher grade essays and test, sharpen pencils, and do bullentin boards. All of a sudden, day 2 of my increased salary assignment,a fight breaks out in the classroom. Now the lil girl was problematic but normally would sit in her assigned seat and just stayed quiet. But this day one of the other teachers was out, just me and the teacher was in the classroom. This day she came in sat in another seat, next to another student that could get problematic, and refused to get up. Both I and the teacher talked to her nicely, bent down to her to speak her, but she still refuse. Then the lil girl started attacking the girl sitting behind her. Me and the teacher broke up the fight.then all of I get a call from school professional saying i said all of this stuff to the teacher and was put on 30 day probation. Again my assignment was extended with increased my pay, how it get so bad so quickly?was it that the teacher didnt need me after grading her quarterly ELA test that she descibed as tetious? Was it that i demanded more money for not receiving a 30 min lunch break?5) they help traffick workers to other countries. Because why were they being pressured to fire me? was it to force me to work over seas? The last assignment, the worksite complained that I refered to a student as being muslim. A student came to me and ask could he go to the bathroom. I said the muslim girl just went and you have to wait until she comes back. Mind you I did not receive a roster of student names.The school staff said I upsetted another student by saying another student was muslim. I had to explain to the student the reason why people wear a hijab is TO BE IDENTIFIED AS MUSLIM. It isnt a shame, its something to be proud of. And I identified her as such, so he knew who to look out for, in order to go to the bathroom when the person returned. 6) there is so much more but it would be a book. Work here if you got the skills and the support of the community, to get people fired. I didnt have that support so they basically used me to throw there trash on me and I cant even get a reference. Its not what you do, its where you live and who you know.Excuse for any typos and grammatical errors. I just needed to vent because I have no one to help me overcome what these employers have been doing to me.
Please be aware of predatory business practices. School Professionals is a temp agency that places substitute teachers in available positions. To qualify with this company, one must endure several time commitments (an interview, fingerprinting, transport, a 3 hour online test / information session), as well as pay $125 for NYC fingerprinting. Over the course of three months, actively accepting available jobs, I was only assigned one position. The lack of available work led me to believe that this company employs more people than they have available jobs. If you are looking for a way to start working immediately, this is NOT a viable option. I invested more time clicking on positions to accept than I spent getting paid for my work.
If there was an option to give zero stars I would. They messed up checks, had unethical employment practices and were frankly a franticly disorganized company. I would not recommend anyone work for this disaster of an organization. They do not treat their employees like human beings.
I’m leaving an anonymous review. I would of given them five stars but I feel that this agency is very unfair. Yes they do set you up to work so if u are looking for work temp this is a good agency. How ever I been with the agency for almost 5 years now and they do not show aperciation to there employees. They do give out prizes such as gift cards and metro cards, electronics. But they seem to forget it’s the little things that count. I’m constantly being requested to work for this one school I love and not once have they aperciated that and it’s been almost 5 years the same school requests me over and over. The teachers love me through out the school and constantly asking for me back. Now as for the absent policy they will threaten you Time after time if u call out after 5 am. But emergencyies do happen. Even if you do have a doctors note it doesn’t matter to them. They will still threaten to terminate you. What I’m trying to say is i think they should give there employees more respect and acknowledgment when it comes to all the hard work we put it. At the end of it all if it wasn’t for the employees they would not be still standing because the substitutes make them there money. They should really focus on the positive instead the constant threats. Maybe call up the school and ask how the sub has been doing. So they can be given positive feedback. They should focus more on the positive especially with the ones who have been with them for a while. Bottom line if they do happen to terminate some one that has been with them for a while, most likely the school that that person was subbing in for a while will hire them because they love them. So the sub will not be missing out, the agency will loss a good worker over a emergency call out after 5 am . The schools show more apperciation then the agency.
Tempositions needs to do a better job in posting jobs in their job bank. If they have jobs available, they should be posting them on a weekly basis not once or twice a month. I understand that the economy is still recovering and not everyone based upon their job profile will be suitable for all jobs, but there should be more consistency.
This place is totally disgusting. The front desk receptionist are very rude. I couldnt believe the conversation that was being held out in the open by the employees. They have no sense of empathy and they ridicule the candidates in front of their faces with other employees. I would never refer someone to come to this location ever again. This is a joke, embarrassment and very disheartening for anyone looking for work.
I am not satisfied with just temp agency my background came back and they put me on relieved whats been going on a month now you like and they said it was going to find another spot for me I wish they didnt I figured that Ive been fired without them telling me which now you cannot use somebody background and Im still calling them to figure out what is my status and I am still getting the runaround.
Have masters degree, am bilingual, also am a certified teacher just having to sub for now. The place in Miami center had me wait almosta.onth even after I completed all of my new hire ppw. I paid almost $100 for fingerprints and they ever followed up with a call back to starting getting assignments. This is highly unprofessional and predatory. Yo say the least. They put you through this rigorous substitute hiring process simply to be a sub..save your time and go through the schools website indepe dently to become a substitute.
Not sure why people are saying there isnt work. There is PLENTY of work. Problem is its all over nyc. One day you can be in harlem, next is coney island. The commute demands are rough, and the hours can be as long as 7-4 on top of that. Its better to just sub for the doe...because a lot of the schools i was sent to were out of control and i felt very unsafe. One 3rd grade student was punching the wall around me and trying to run out of the class.
The guy there and specially Regis Canning told you to call him and keep in touch ,I called them months and months ,nothing happened,At the end I realized these people are racist,and they will waste your time only.When I am in their office they keep asking you question about from where you are etc...Really this company is a disgrace.

2021-08-17I have been with Tempositions for many years and I can tell you they are the best! I received my 1st high paying job through Tempositions. They place you in positions with companies that are hard to get . You gain experience and learn from the best and you take that experience and apply it to searching for a career of your choice. I have used Tempositions as a stepping stone and a back-up even with my permanent position. The staff are 100% professional, humble and so helpful! I especially like one staff in particular Zalene along with her colleagues, they get the job done! The technology they use is of high quality and it keeps improving making it easy access to everything at your finger tips. You wont be confused with passwords by going into different apps like other companies/agencies. Although Tempositions is professional, they embrace a family like atmosphere making you feel like home! They care about your needs and will work with you. Their high standards and encouraging strategies gives you the opportunity to excel and do more when you are performing your duties. They are the best. I would recommend this agency to everyone, whether youre at work, church, school, parks, events, parties. I would yell it out TEMPOSITIONS is the best in NY! Heck all over because theyre in many other states as well. I would truly recommend the young creative minds, seniors, interns,, retirees to join our team if you want to work under less pressure and in a stress-free professional environment. They have something for everyone.

2020-07-09The moment I received a phone call from TemPositions Group in regards to a possible medical assisting position, I immediately had this feeling of positivity. My recruiter, Natasha OConnell made me feel so comfortable conversing with her due to her kindness, compassion and reliability. I was able to know just by a few phone calls how passionate she is about her job and its incredible how confident she is in not only herself as an employer, but also how confident she is about the company she works for. Since conversing with Natasha, I have learned that she is not only the type of person you can count on, but also the type of person that represents TemPositions as trustworthy, hardworking people that do whatever they can to get their jobs done efficiently and quickly. I would like to thank Natasha OConnell and TemPositions for helping me find the perfect placement for employment and for being so professional, knowledgeable and kind!

2021-04-27Natasha and Chanice are wonderful to work with. They both give their all in trying for me both as an RN employee and as an individual. Natasha is a great listener, and both have tenacity in seeking optimal scheduling and addressing any personal or job concerns. Their professional excellence and caring personify TemPositions.

2020-10-20This is one of the best agencies I’ve ever worked for. I had the pleasure of working with Natasha O’Connell as my coordinator. She is professionalism personified. She is always positive, polite and responds within minutes. I look forward to working more with her and this organization that had the wits to hire her.

2020-05-08I had a really great experience working with one of the staff from this organization. As a job seeker, I highly recommend Natasha OConnell. After having completed a few phone interviews and or first round in person interviews on my own, I was struggling to get past the first round. When I would finish my interview, I would walk away with a lack of confidence. I would often have that feeling as though the interviewer was not being genuine in their responses to how I answered their interview questions.Usually when the interview is not going well and at the same time the interviewer wants to come across as pleasant, they only respond with one-word answers:GreatAwesomeSuper.......They also have a deflating balloon tone in their voice when they give you these one word answers, so you just know your interviewer is being FAKE!!I bet some of you are giggling to your self right now because you have been there. If you have ever experienced this on a job interview, then you know exactly what I am talking about. I explained these struggles I was having to Natasha, and she really helped me to overcome these hurdles so that my interviewers would respond positively to how I answered their questions, and sound genuine about it. Natashas coaching methods proved to be so effective, that listening to her helped me to get hired.My suggestion to you is to be humble. If you keep going on interviews and not getting past the first round and not getting the job, you might be doing something wrong! Remember, its not always the most qualified person who gets the job. The one who gets the job is the one who interviews best!Dont be afraid to tell Natasha where you are struggling in your interview process because your honesty will help her to help you in the end. Listen to Natasha when she says to get a blazer and wear it on your interview. Listen to Natasha when she says dress up for that phone interview to get you in the interview mode. You never know if the interviewer is going to last minute request to skype with you and you do not want to be looking your worst!Last but not least, when you go to Temp-positions in NYC, I recommend that you request to work with Natasha OConnell! Her methods are effective in helping you to get the job!!

2020-10-28Natasha is an incredible, hard-working advocate for all recruits she takes under her wing. Throughout the search Natasha made me feel valued, she listened to me, and matched me with a company that respected my credentials and dreams. I would recommend this company to anyone, especially Natahsa!

2016-03-02Great experience. Temp positions, helped me get back on the job market after being unemployed for a while. My accounts manager was a wonderful individual with outstanding customer service skills. She always negotiates the best remuneration rate and stays in touch even if she had no immediate assignment. Her ability to draw from my experience and skills to present me for varied assignments is amazing. My experience with Temp Positions has been very positive and I highly recommend Temp Agencies to all.
