Staffing firms that actually work with prospective employees?

Question

All too often, I am passed up in my employment prospects.
I am treated like a number and I really don't like it.
Therefore, I am seeking something else.

There are way too many staffing firms out there that all do the same thing. They look for a few buzz words and a glorified resume'. They could care less about the employee.
They only seem to care about how much they can make when they fill a position. I have often played upon the system, much in the same way they do.

I mean their are agents for Taxes, football players, baseball players, finances, etc. Why then not for other fields?
I have even thought about starting my own staffing firm that does just that, but that is not what I want to do for a living. A staffing firm should do all the work. Resume, dealing with rejection.

I would like to work through a single staffing firm or person that can help me, rather than to be put through the shredder and talk to people for 15 minutes that have no idea of who I am or what I do

Answer 1

I had great experience w Randstad Staffing last year when I was job hunting. I had two interviews within a week of first speaking to them, & was made an offer that I accepted. All at no out of pocket expense to me.
