  also didn't have much good experience with kelly services, i went to recruit express abt a wk ago.. then juz friday a women called me(cannot reveal the name) tellin me tat she's got a job offer then ask me to go down jurong east branch @ 9.30am to sign a form.. (im stayin ard serangoon btw) anyway got job offer then i dun mind lor..wake up early @7then eat breakfast,change then go liao..
  
  when i reach there... i ask a staff there "can i see XXXX" then she asked for my ic said hang on.. she went to make a phone call to her then and after abt 20mins,she came back tell me that this "XXXX" said she did not call me!! she asked me call back to her to dbl check. then i call lor.. didn;t have her number so i check my log in my handphone then called her back,then she answered.. (HOW THE HELL WOULD I HAVE HER NUMBER IN MY LOG IF SHE NEVER CALLED ME?) then she said again : Oh! so u r SXXXN!! did i remember callin you?? so wad did i tell you about the jobs?? can u give me more details that i can recall?? i repeated every single detail,workplace,location,types of jobs,pay,ot pay etc.. then she said huh?? u r staying ard serangoon and i called you to come down to jurong east (WTF!? i havent blame her yet..) she juz called me down early in the morning and acted like she never knew anything..dunno she lost any documents or wad!?
  
  ppl shud invent a function in hp which i can save the entire conversation as concrete prove and replay it (perhaps with my 1000WATTS home theater speakers if they cant hear it) for them. If not they'd juz deny and we cant do a sh!t..
  
  sian then talk so long on the phone then she tell me that she will call back the staff in jurong branch and explain to her..then after she call back i see the women inside talk talk abt 5mins then come out give me a form ask my to fill my particulars again!? Didnt i juz filled 1 last week dunno they lost it or wad!? so i filled up handed to them then they said they will help me find another job.. QIk GEK!!
  
  then sian sian i go the opposite unit which is kelly services see got any luck or not,filled up a form there,then the staff told me that her branch is dealing jobs recruitment in the west n i shud go to other branch nearer to me but nvm they'll fax my particulars over to other branch and help me find a job for my holiday.. i hear liao also sianz.. cuz last time also got try their service b4.. no gd impression..
  
  okay i waked up early in the morning and made a wasted trip of $4 adult fare to jurong east then ended up getting scammed..wa! really sian!

  TS, i suggest u try the recruit express branch nearer to ur house. i went to that exact branch at JE CPF building which u had stated, but so far the service i got from them was satisfactorily good.
  
  btw I was served by the only guy in that office lol. 1st time go there tio him as my interviewer, after which i got his namecard [impt if u need to call back]. within the same day i got an offer in the same day. that was in sept last year.
  
  but at march last year, i couldnt get any offers from the RE branch at JTC building there. maybe the work time too short liao so they threw away my info. wasted my time lor. =.= so i just hope that u have enough luck for this season, TS. [btw i calling back my agent soon again after exams/CNY]

  me always siam this kind of intw. coz to me they are just "killing their times" by mtg so-called suitable applicants. to me is waste of time. usually, i will ask for more info. n if possible i will prefer to go straight to meet up their client. or they hv to gimme more info. of the employer. should they hv more doubts will use email to communicate.

  its freaking sickening these people.
  
  just yesterday i went rtc for an interview. i applied the job online, sent them an email with my resume.
  
  reach there, the person who replied through my email told me to go down for an interview asked me if i was working or studying. i said i'm studying part time and said i can't have the job because of rotation shift and i won't be able to choose the shifts.
  
  though their ad stated rotation shift, i thought maybe something could be worked out. i even stated in my resume that i'm studying part time. in the end spoke to the person for less than 5 mins, i think less than 3 mins even and left for home. what the heck man.
