Critical: Professionalism, Quality, Value I spoke to a recruiter by the name of LORI. Who was very rude, condescending, and negative things. That I for one never heard come out of a recruiters mouth. I was disgusted by her performance. I highly suggest that she is reevaluated and Quad656 needs to adjust their employer employee relationship with her. get rid of her!

Such a great experience. I had the pleasure of working with Patti who is very smart, personable and Informative. Not only did she help me to find my perfect job but she was incredibly supportive through the whole process. Thanks so much Patti!

These women work their selves to the farthest extent. One sent me on a search journey and paved my road to success. These 4 CEO's work long hours to accommodate others and are selfless. They all are so knowledgeable and all are self-built. I recommend them for any company. They are what made me. Best in the Main line area!

Quad 656 has been wonderful to work with. They have placed me in three different temporary positions, with wonderful companies. I'm so thankful to have found this group to help me through career transitions.

Absolutely horrible. Bait and switch tactics with postings along with "dressing down" a person to the lowest possible denominator. Uneducated and untrained employees who are USELESS and proud of it.

I can't even explain it. These people are incredible! They help with lots of problems and are great at it. They are very chill and inspired me to create a business of my own! I give them a 5/5 and make sure to use them for your business!

Was referred here. Brought my resume with me. Met with a younger recruiter which we discussed what I wanted to do. He said he felt good about it. Called in his boss who was concentrated on football at the moment. He talked about Temple and how he knew the coach. He listed four or five companies who he was going to put my resume in front of.never heard one follow up. The first recruiter left and went to another company. I went out and found my own job. Service was useless.

Absolutely horrible. Quad sent me on a 5-month assignment at an engineering/IT consulting firm in Center City. The place was a nightmare. Horrible people who treat temps with barely disguised contempt and disdain. When the assignment went south (as I knew it inevitably would), QUAD656 was nowhere to be found. They offered me ZERO support. Moreover, the client REFUSED to return my personal effects!

That's right! They kept my family photos, cards, etc. that were adorning my workspace in the pod. When I asked Trish Jackson at QUAD656 to retrieve my belongings, she told me CDI (the firm I was assigned to) said there wasn't anything at my desk. They told a bald-face LIE and QUAD656 backed them up 100%! I was flabbergasted! STAY AWAY FROM QUAD656 ESPECIALLY TRISH JACKSON! They are completely Toxic!

Just looking to get paid. They are willing to put you in a job that will not utilize your skills in any way shape or form, but sell it that it's the perfect career choice for you. Honestly, they are responsible for possibly the worst career choice of my life. Be very careful.

I was contacted by one of their recruiters and I decided to take a 20 minute phone call to hear about a position they were trying to fill for one of their clients. The recruiter was aggressive in advancing the steps of the process (not in a bad way) and things were going smoothly. I decided to pursue the position further but then the experience took a turn for the worse. Communicatoin abruptly stopped from the recruiter with no explanation.

At least have the courage to tell your candidates if they are out of the running, etc - don't leave them high and dry. Overall - lack of professionalism and common courtesy left a bad taste in my mouth.

Very professional, the recruiter was attentive, and easy to keep in contact with. I never felt left out of any loop, and was well prepared for my interview.

I went on two interviews for a company and was never informed by Quad 656 that the position had been filled. However, I was contacted again regarding a different opportunity.

I got sent out on a job by this company who didn't do all the background checks before they sent me to the job, later they called and said don't go back because of a summary offense that I had. I was told by the legal court department that it was like a parking ticket and would not come up. The Quad person told me that I needed to get this dismissed.

As I pursued a dismissal paying a lot of money for an attorney, I was told by the county DA's office that my record is clean and an attorney and judge said that this is against the law to use that information against me. Quad later sent me out on a job that paid only half the salary and was only a temporary position. Quad needs to abide by the law.

I uploaded my resume to Quad656 via the portal on their website. I explained that I'm currently employed but interested in finding a new job. I have a degree in Finance and have spent the past 10+ years as the finance manager for a small company. After 3 weeks I hadn't heard from anyone at QUAD, so I called today to follow up. I realize I'm not going to be a good fit for every job posting they receive.

But I still figured that I'd be contacted by someone in the organization. One of their specialties is placing people in accounting and finance. I have a business degree! They make their money finding employees for their clients. I spoke to a woman who identified herself as one of the owners of Quad. I explained my confusion that there had been no follow up.

She seemed completely uninterested and sounded like she was rushing to end the call. All she said was "if we think you're a fit for something then one of our recruiters will give you a call". There was no interest in meeting with me to get a sense of what kind of job I'm trying to find. There was no regret that I hadn't been contacted by anyone in her organization.

She sounded like she couldn't have cared less. I need to emphasize that I understand I'm not going to be the right candidate for every job. I'm OK with that. But how can a recruiter be so indifferent towards the kind of person they need to accommodate the needs of their clients? VERY disappointing! Don't waste your time with this organization.

Please do not waste your time with this place. I went to register several months ago. It took hours as I live in the northeast philly area and had to take the bus. I met a nice woman who fed me a lot of bull about how she had the perfect position for me. I never heard from her once about any job, interview, nothing. Just on a whim, a few weeks ago I emailed her to see if she was even still working there.

Apparently she moved to another division and didn't even bother to tell me. She referred me to a new contact to never contacted me either. But wait there's more! One of her other colleagues that I never even met always adds me to her email list when she has a position available, but here's the kicker, she says to let my "friends" know that she has this position available. Not me, my friends. When I respond to tell her that I AM THE ONE LOOKING FOR WORK, I NEVER get a response.

I worked with Quad looking for a finance job. They got me one interview with a company. I didn't get the position. Every other interview they offered paid $5-10k less than I was currently making (and the salaries were way under average starting at most comparable firms). Overall, the hiring manager helped me get my foot in the door, but the doors I was being offered were not really what I wanted.

They work primarily with smaller firms, and that means smaller pay. If you want to get some exposure to small firms in the financial industry and don't mind low salaries, go for it. They can and will get you an interview.
