This is a wonderful company to for and with. I've been with them a little over and they are caring, professional, and just overall exceptional. They are very responsive and work with you the entire way. Honestly, it's one of the best decisions I've made coming to work here.

2020.07: Spoke to the general manager, actually got called and informed regarding positions, policies, and this review. Sounds like Ms Plum has her work cut out for her, but has some great goals to get AES in the right direction. She listened to my issues, it lined up with things she had found, and I'm hoping this will be the start of a positive trend, within AES and out. 2020.06: I will give them one thing: they are quick with rejections using any reason to not have to deal with applications. Otherwise, don't bother hearing back from them or having a conversation with someone who can fake sounding pleased.

Your conversation with them feels like an inconvenience and it shows. 2019: Have been dealing with them since at least 2014. Not much to speak for as far as a recruitment agency. They will put you through arbitrary tests until you topple over, not that it seems to help them connect with jobs. The testing done has helped me get more positions than anything else. I am able to say I have skills evaluated by a third party agency.

I worked with Courtney and she's is incredibly helpful, honest and straightforward. AES is a well run company with a lot of great connections.

The girls are very kind but I felt like they weren't listening at all to what would work for me. They kept suggesting temporary jobs when I kept telling them I was something permanent, no doubt this is just a way to continuously filter me through their system. I've had plenty of friends say they had similar issues- a few even saying they kept trying to push careers they had absolutely no experience in and ignored them saying "I can't do that job and I wouldn't be happy in that job".

It just felt like they didn't care at all about what I wanted and only cared about filling in temporary jobs with horrible fits as a way to create return "customers". The only person that seemed to care and was trying to work with me and find the best fit was Cole. He mentioned talking to a big corporation that wanted AES to find work and he felt like it would be the perfect fit. When I called to check on things I was told he was no longer working there before they proceeded to "work with me" again and push jobs I don't want or can't do.

The lack of responsiveness from the employees at AES has been very frustrating and disappointing. When someone sends an email, I believe it is common courtesy to at least acknowledge its' receipt, but that does not seem to be the consensus here. I have had to leave phone messages and send e-mails before I received a response. As a staffing agency, I would expect more.

The people are nice but they don't help much in getting a job. They don't answer your emails or return your calls unless they feel like it.
