temp (Former Employee) – northern Illinois –

I can honestly say that Unistaff is the only temporary agency that I like. I worked for one of their locations in northern Illinois. The recruiter was very friendly and helpful. They were also very understanding when I had to sadly resign from the position they had me at due to health reasons. They also have excellent communication skills which is very hard to find these days. I would recommend you to Unistaff to anyone!
