Smart ideas for finding work, talent and achieving your goals.
Greysmith provided me with the opportunity to gain more administrative experience and skills. I was fortunate to have worked with [consultants] that were wonderful in providing me with immediate service when I had questions regarding my personal information. It was a joy to have worked for Greysmith, and I do greatly appreciate all of the hard work and effort in following up on my assignment and also to see how I was doing. Highly recommend this temp agency if you are enthusiastic in working with people who are attentive to your work interest, by providing you with options.
My experience with The Greysmith Co.has been enlightening. My recruiter is very professional. I had been with my previous employer for 15 years, and she landed me in a position that was a perfect fit for me and for the hiring company.
OMG Best temp agency ever! When I was first contacted by Greysmith, I must admit that I was a little skeptical at first but as soon as I had my meetingI felt totally comfortable and right at home! I’ve been working with them for the past two years and I can honestly say that if it weren’t for them and all of their hard work, I have no idea if I would have made it in RI. Their team worked exceptionally well with me, my schedule and my transportation needs and was able to find incredible jobs for me. Because of them, I have met some of the most wonderful people which some have even become even like family to me. I have been blessed to be able to work with them and some of the companies I have worked for through them. I will HIGHLY recommend Greysmith to anyone who is looking for temporary positions in RI and cannot Stress enough how wonderful they are. You will be truly happy!!!
My experience with the Greysmith Companies was highly positive and very professional. Being unemployed for a few months I was seeing how difficult it could be to get back on track with my career. I was speaking with a family friend who recommended Greysmith Companies because their son had been placed in a position through Greysmith which lead him to a full-time role within that company. I sent over my resume and was immediately contacted. After the initial meeting with [Consultant] he knew exactly what I was looking to do and gain from my experience with Greysmith. [Consultant] immediately set to work; sending out my resume and setting up interviews. After what looked to be a hopeful first interview the company decided not to fill the role but he already had a few other ideas in mind. It was not long after that before I received a call from him saying a company was looking to fill a position with an indefinite timeline and, knowing my background, knew I would be a perfect fit. [Consultant] set up the interview and within that same day they had offered me the position. This position turned out to be exactly what I needed to get back into the workforce. After some time working with this company they have offered me a full-time, salary position. I have only the highest regard for [consultant] and the people at Greysmith for what they have done to get me working again. My placement in this role is a testament to the hard-work and knowledge they have. This opportunity, provided by the Greysmith Companies, has put my career back on track. During my time with Greysmith they were highly professional and were truly working to advance my career. I am very grateful to both [consultant] and the company for the handwork they have provided on my behalf!!!
More than just your average agency. They make it known they care and stay in touch by not only following up but following through on their word. They also made the process and transition smooth compared to most other agencies. Over all, very professional all around no matter who you get, whether it’s your first call or even first time walking in. I highly recommend them, can’t brag enough about them on the regular.
Greysmith helped me find a job that I enjoy and had great opportunity for advancement. I was permanently hired 3 months in and wouldn’t trade it for anything. My brother and I both received permanent opportunities after our temporary status with Greysmith. It’s great for getting experience that will lead you on your career path. Definitely recommended.
My experience with Greysmith was an incredibly pleasant and rewarding one. I worked with [my consultant] and almost immediately found a temp to perm role that suited perfectly. She walked me through the process in a very professional manner an immediately started looking for offers. Within weeks there was an opening. Not only did [my consultant] help to get me in for an interview right way but was also able to negotiate a higher pay than the company was offering. After my temporary period had expired the company offered me a permanent position which I am currently in. She the consummate professional and the standard for the recruiting industry, and the same can be said of her corporation. I would highly recommend Greysmith (and have to many of my friends and acquaintances) as it is the best in the business.
Just after graduating from college I received a call from Jennifer Breckner at Greysmith Companies because she had seen my resume on Monster. I went in to meet with her and she was so genuine and incredibly understanding of my recent-graduate insecurities. I went on to find a job on my own, but quickly decided it was not the right fit. I quit and called Jennifer to let her know I was once again looking for employment. She was able to connect me with her co-worker, Brian Leite, who placed me at the American Heart Association as a temp. I worked there for four months and was recently hired as a full-time employee. I could not be happier in this role because I get to learn so much every day. It is an organization that I can envision myself working at for a very long time. I could not be happier with how the helpful everyone is at Greysmith was and cannot thank them enough for opening this incredible door for me.
I contacted Greysmith Co’s approximately 5 years ago. My original contact was Jennifer M. She was very professional and stayed in contact with me for the next couple of weeks. It seemed she was determined to find the right fit. Well the fit came for a part-time position with an internationally known company with headquarters in Johnston, RI. It was a temporary assignment with an indefinite time frame. I always felt it may end at any given time. To date, I have been there 5 years now and last week was offered and full time position with full benefits. Through these years Jennifer and I had periodic contact. Always professional and kind. Whenever I needed periodic figures for my hours worked or something other than a W-2, she would make me feel that my needs were a priority. I am truly grateful to have had such a person to relate to during this long assignment. I would recommend Greysmith with an abundance of confidence.
I highly recommend The Greysmith Companies. My Recruiting Specialist did a fantastic job helping my find the position that was right for me. Once I reached out, she quickly set up an initial meeting and began to suggest possible placements. I accepted a position within the week with a highly respected university close to where I live. I was offered competitive compensation, and eventually transitioned to an employee with the university within six months. I am very happy with my experience, and recommend The Greysmith Companies to anyone looking for a supportive agency to help them find the job that’s right for them.
