Horrible customer service! I just moved to the Seattle area from out of state and I was in need of work. I decided to apply for a role and they responded quickly with a position that was not what I applied for. When talking to the recruiter about the type of work I wanted and the pay I wanted, Cecil Jackson told me that I don't have any experience(I have 4 years) and what I'm asking for does not reflect my experience.
I have talked with other agencies in the area and they have been able to get me interviews scheduled for this week for jobs in the field I want and that start off way more than I requested. If you want to settle for a dead end job through Pace staffing than be my guest but don't sell you self short because Pace won't put in the effort to recommend decent jobs. They capitalize on baiting and switching jobs.
You apply to position just for them to call you about a position that's completely different and try to talk you into taking the lesser position by trying to down talk you and tell you you're not good enough for the position and that you need to be humbled.

PACE took the time to get to know me and really listened to my goals going through the employment process. They didn't attempt to place me with any contract but offered two which really suited my skills and future plans. In the end I feel I have a good fit as a long term temp or temp to hire with a company which is perfect for me. If you are job hunting don't be afraid to try PACE. Both Jennifer and Nancy did an outstanding job of matching up my assignment and I.
