Employee Success Stories
Read what our employees and candidates have to say about their experiences with Area Temps:
"When I came into Area Temps to register, I did not expect the application process to be so in depth. Area Temps required a detailed application, computer testing and an interview. I felt they wanted to know all of my background, to place me in a position that would utilize my skills while helping the company, whereas other agencies only requested a brief work history before sending me on an assignment. I must have done well because Area Temps offered me a temp-to-perm position that same day! When I accepted the position, I thought that it had no future because, with other agencies, the assignments never worked out. But with Area Temps, I went permanent with the company and have been with them for over a year...I highly recommend Area Temps to anyone needing to fill a position or needing to find a job...Area Temps is a solid company that will not waste your time or money."

"Area Temps is the best staffing agency to use as a resource. I was out of a job for several months, and searching for a job on my own did not prove successful. I decided to call Area Temps. The entire staff is professional and they are diligent with their job searches. I am an accounting major at Cleveland State University and I wanted to work in the accounting field. They were able to place me on assignments almost immediately. In addition, when one assignment ended, they were able to keep me busy until another accounting position was available. I am currently working for a nonprofit organization as an administrative assistant/bookkeeper. Area Temps placed me on this job and it is extremely fulfilling. I will always be indebted to the Area Temps staff."

"I applied with Area Temps looking for work in temporary positions while seeking a regular, full-time administrative/operations position. In less than a week, I received a call with an opportunity that could last up to two months and was a 10-minute drive from my home. The assignment actually stretched out to three months and within a week of that assignment ending I was called with another opportunity that was a possible temp-to-permanent position. I accepted this position, even closer to home, and was offered a full time position with the company, which I accepted and moved into when my commitment to Area Temps was fulfilled. What I especially appreciated about working with Area Temps was how quickly I was placed in temporary positions, and how responsive the counselors are to questions, meeting my needs, and getting me matched to appropriate positions. And it was always a pleasure to talk to April (Derenburger, from the Lakewood office). She always sounds enthusiastic and genuine. She truly wants to successfully place people in positions that are a match with their skill sets and offer a rewarding experience. I never felt like I was 'just a body' that needed to be placed. I would highly recommend Area Temps to anyone looking for a new position, just wanting to work occasionally in temp positions, or just starting out in the work force."

"I was a stay-at-home mom who was looking to rejoin the workforce. I spent several months looking for a job on my own. Frustrated by my lack of success, I decided to contact Area Temps. It was the best decision I could have made! The people at Area Temps were all so nice. They assessed my skills and set up two interviews for me immediately. The following week, I was hired by a local company in a temp-to-hire position. I couldn't be more pleased!"

"I have worked for Area Temps on and off since 2004 and, every time I have needed work, the Lakewood (office) has always helped me out (and)...kept me working. I have worked short-term, long-term and temp-to-perm assignments. I have gone permanent at a few of the companies and, due to layoffs, I have always been able to come back to Area Temps and find employment. Each time I am sent on an assignment, I am given a clear description of what the job entails and also what is expected of me. I would recommend Area Temps to anyone who is in need of employment."
