It's an employment agency. Anyone here get a job through them or are they a scam?

Thanks!

They're not a scam, but don't expect wonderful, lucrative careers to form. You'll probably have to do some testing before they refer you out and the jobs are usually 2nd rate desk jobs.

I don't know about the Apple One here in Las Vegas, but I got plenty of jobs in California through that temp agency. Never a fee of course. I would hope it's similar to the California one.

I've been here long enough not to COUNT on anything. I'm also not counting on getting a good job, just another crappy one that's closer to home. So I'm not asking for too much.

So many of these places are just scams advertising jobs that don't exist. If these guys are real, I will apply for a few positions and see what happens.

Thanks everyone!

You could also try LaborMax, my gf got her job through them, she went from temp to hire almost right away. Their office used to be at Flamingo and Boulder, they moved so Im not sure where they are now, I believe Russell and Decatur

I tried looking for a 2nd job through AppleOne, the lady on the phone was so rude to me that I didnt bother setting an appointment
