BEWARE! Do not apply here. Per request, I sent required tax form, personal information that included my SSN via email to the recruiter. This is not a secure process and the recruiter Winnie Leeks requested it before the interview. I thought I was going to begin employment asap. The recruiter had her camera off during the interview and I was interrogated from the senior staff Christine Hudson with questions about my previous roles and experience. I was ghosted and haven't heard from the recruiters since my application. NRI is not a secure or ethical staffing agency.
RPStaffing honestly was a blessing and it was a blessing that was received and given to me at the perfect time. I cannot thank RPStaffing enough for all that they have done for me. They truly are amazing and this is the absolute best agency to work with and for because they will definitely show up and show out for you. I would one thousand percent recommend this company to so many others. They care and they are patient and they listen and these are outstanding qualities to have.
Alex was one of the best recruiters I have worked with. He guided me through every step of the process making sure that someone was available while he was out. Response were prompt and literally gave me great advice on how to secure a position with a particular company. Extremely thankful.
Palmer Staffing provides excellent and efficient service. In particular, Beverly Segal was a godsend! She was strategic and specific with positions she aligned with and helped me to land the position I wanted that was tailored to what I wanted, needed and was looking for in a position and employer.
I highly recommend that you use Palmer Staffing to help you secure your next position

I have worked with them the only issue I have is they do not really send you on multiple assignments. They keep your name on file but fail to send you our or is really terrible.
Everyone at RP is very eager to help. Jenni found a great opportunity for me and helped me prepare for the interviews. She was always very responsive and transparent, so I always felt heard.
Highly recommend using Palmer Staffing Services if you are in need of employment. After months of searching for a position on my own, I was finally able to secure a job within a week. Lheiren was so helpful and supportive throughout the process.
Stephanie was an absolute pleasure to work with and she got me a new job within in a week in a role that was very well suited to my interests. She helped prep me for the interview, made sure I had all the paperwork I needed, and supported me through the entire process. If you are looking for a job I could not recommend them more!
It has been a wonderful experience to have worked with Beverly! From the very beginning we were both very open and forward about what I wanted and what my options were. She walked me through the entire process from beginning to end and provided tips and guidance as I went through hiring process. I appreciate her accessibility and commitment to making sure I landed a great job. She was in constant communication with me and was quick to respond to any questions I had. I had previously worked with other recruiting firms, but none have take the time to really help me and guide me with care and understanding. I appreciate the honesty and diligence Beverly had to get me to where I am now. I am incredibly grateful for having met her and having this experience. I recommend Palmer staffing to anyone, but if you are new in this field and a young professional, I would hands down say don’t doubt it and connect with them. They will take care of you and find you just what you’re looking for.
Honest/open communication and fast placement. They worked with me to find positions that fit my needs at the time. My recruiter, Kenneth, did a great job landing me placements and kept in touch with me throughout.
RPStaffing is great & very much so, prompt. They helped me get through my interview process and was a guide every step. This is an awesome agency, get with them if you need a job and help locating something that may match your skill set!
They recently helped me Gain a new position and with higher pay!

The employment options have always been great over the years, and great pay. I was finally able to take on a position through Palmer Staffing, and they did not disappoint. I am comfortable in my position, my pay is adequately pleasant. I really appreciate Ms Patrice Scott, despite some PERSONAL preliminary hiring issues (it was my fault) she fought to get me placed in my current job and I do not want to ever leave it. Everyone has been so helpful and very professional at palmer. There were so many job offers sent out weekly that it is almost impossible to not get placed. They follow up, keep in contact, and promptly answered all my questions, pay weekly. There is a lot more I can attest to, but just know you will not be disappointed!
I have had the opportunity to work with Palmer on two occasions and have had good experiences during both. I worked with Patrice Scott, who is responsive, communicative, and encouraging. This is a great opportunity to get your foot in the door. I let the company know I was interested in gaining experience as a paralegal and a month later, I was chosen to fulfill a paralegal position. Also, this position was my first time working with the federal government, which is great exposure and a resume booster. After college, if you notice a lot of jobs require you to have experience in order to gain experience (even entry level positions), this is a practical means of acquiring such skills.
This is my first time working with Palmer Staffing Services and Maya has been an absolute pleasure to work with. She moved quickly and efficiently to find me a position with an organization that happened to make the USA Top Workplace list. I would recommend this company for anyone searching for a role in the DC area.
Had a great experience with RPS! I worked one on one with Morgan and Alex and both of them were extremely helpful and reassuring in my journey of looking for another role. Morgan was always straight to the point and always provided me with all bits of information needed, i always felt prepared and supported throughout every round. I have just accepted an offer this past weekend, making at the higher end of my salary range that I initially requested and couldn’t be happier!
A HUGE thank you to the RPS team and Morgan♥️

RPStaffing has been a godsend for kicking off my career. I had been working with another staffing agency and concluded a temp contract that I didn't feel like I was a good fit for when Kenneth reached out to me directly on LinkedIn. He was extremely attentive throughout the entire process, kept in regular contact, and called me almost daily with new opportunities until we found one that was a very good fit. Since I started the new position, he's reached out to me at least once a month to check in on how things are progressing. I owe Kenneth, and RPS, a sincere thank you for getting me into the right place at the right time!
Alex and RPStaffing in general have been exceptional in guiding me through the placement process. Alex was able to connect me with a company whose culture is a great fit for me, my skills and experience which will allow me to bring value to the team. Alex was responsive and provided just the right amount of guidance. I found Debbie, the office manager, also was very helpful during the process.
I worked with both Alexa and Brooks and they could not have been more helpful! They helped me to land a great job and vouched for my skillset the entire way. Could not have asked for a better experience. Very happy with where they helped me land!
I did not find NRI Staffing helpful, and this place hindered my job search. Below are a few things that I have noticed:
-The agency "presents" you to prospective employers. This process includes a review of your resume, writing samples, and references. Your references will be contacted before every interview.
-Most of the available positions are under $30 per hour and are not temp to permanent.
-Employment opportunities usually do not materialize. (This is the biggest issue of all)
This agency is better for those looking for short-term clerical opportunities. I would also recommend this agency as a plan c for your job search. You already have several offers and are waiting for a start date.

Palmer Staffing helped me find my first job out of my undergrad! Beverley was the main person I dealt with and she was friendly, communicative and encouraging. Their process was really streamlined and as far as I can see they do a good job pairing people based on their experience. They're able to connect you with temp, part time or full time positions. I'd recommend them to anyone looking to start or continue advancing in the legal/political/policy field!
Randstad took my search for an opportunity seriously from day one. Laura S. was always communicative and responsive, she sincerely listened and was helpful every step of the way. Periodic check-ins with me while on assignment gauged the “fit” for the role and feedback on my performance was shared so I knew the client’s level of satisfaction. Laura is very professional and ready to assist with whatever is needed. Thank you to Randstad for landing a great full time role!
I started working with Ajilon back in fall 2019. They were amazing from the beginning! Amazing at placing me at the right companies and very easy going if i didn't like an opportunity given to me. They always cared about me and wanted to make sure I was doing well. They were even able to find me a place to work during COVID! Which actually turned into a full time position eventually!
The whole team at Ajilon is amazing. I mainly worked with Carrie and Miriam(definitely worked with more people there who were also amazing). Both Miriam and Carrie were great. They went above and beyond for me. They always checked in on me to make sure I was doing well. I've never met people that are more caring, kind, and genuine. They made me feel like family from the beginning.
I have no complaints at all. I'm forever grateful for them and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND them to anybody!

I have to say that Catherine Mitchell is a Godsend. I relocated to the DC area in September and posted my resume on DCJobs. The next day I get a call from Catherine who really took to the time to understand what I was looking for in my career. She also took to the time to make sure I was prepared for my interviews and would follow up regularly. Less than a month later, I was able to secure a position that was exactly what I was looking for. She was a joy to work with and I honestly cannot thank her enough.
I was trying to get my first job out of college for five months and growing more stressed by the day. I walked into Paladin and an entire team interviewed me one by one to see who I needed most to help me get that job I needed to get in the door. Mari came in, bursting with energy and reassurance and I think not only because of her guidance, but her attitude, that I was able to ace that interview and get that job. I'm still here !
Nothing but positive things to say about Randstad. The process had been incredibly smooth. Ashley Walther has been so helpful throughout the whole process, she deserves 10 stars! Definitely work with Randstad, you won’t regret it.
Justin Volman is the single most competent and helpful recruiter I have ever worked with. He is extremely professional, supportive and adept in providing guidance without being overbearing. Justin connected me with my current employer, which is a perfect fit or me and I could not be happier. In addition to being extremely easy to work with and helpful throughout the recruiting process, he consistently checked in leading up to my start date, as well as post-hire. Justin did an impressive amount of background research and due diligence prior to meeting and connecting me with my current firm. My current boss also commented that he was extremely impressive and pleasant to work with. I would work with him ten times over!
Moving to DC from another city it was hard to get good job interviews. I put my information on the regular job sites but nothing really popped, but then I meet Althea at Ajilon and EVERYTHING changed. I was willing to settle for any job making little to nothing, because I was so frustrated with the process. Althea gave me my confidence back and helped me get a job that meet all of my needs. Over a year later I am still at this job and couldn't be happier.
I had a great experience with Paladin. Paula Morrison contacted me with a job opportunity. It turned out to be the perfect fit for me. Because of my job title often recruiters contact me for positions that don't fit my profile at all. Paula understood very well my needs. I highly recommend!
Ajilon is truly one of the best recruiting agencies I have worked with. They are extremely professional, attentive and work tirelessly to find the best role that fits your needs. I worked with Annalee and am so happy we crossed paths, she is detail-oriented, patient and dedicated. She truly wants to find the perfect fit for you as well as their client and will be honest during the process. Annalee helped place me at one of the best jobs I’ve had and my new company continues to rave on how happy they are with my placement — all thanks to Ajilon! I am so grateful to Annalee and the rest of the Ajilon team for their guidance through the process and exceptional work.
I met Althea Colenda at a gas station... after chatting, I found out she worked at Ajilon and I was unemployed! She gave me her card and told me to send her my resume and to "get me to work!" That she did, along with Carrie Oravec and Marggie Andrews. The entire Ajilon team has been extremely professional and supportive. Carrie (my recruiter) has really helped to keep me employed while looking for a permanent position. The entire team at Ajilon has been truly a godsend for me. I recommend anyone and everyone to connect with them.
I worked with Lauren Lynch back when Ajilon was still known as TRAK. She helped place me at my first full time position in DC and was a pleasure to work with throughout.
As a temp, you tend to wrestle with anxiety of not knowing when your next position will become available. I had the sense that some of my peers from other agencies struggled with the constant roller coaster of feeling like they were completely forgotten before receiving a call out of the blue demanding that they be ready for a new position immediately. I never had that experience with Ajilon or Lauren, my recruiter. She went so far as to check in between positions to let me know some estimated timelines on when something new might come up and the sort of work it was likely to be.
Great communication, great experience.

Ajilon has an incredible team and they really put in a lot of work and careful thought as to where they think you will be a good fit. I worked closely with Annalee and she was wonderful! She prepped me for my interview and helped me feel comfortable in my choice. The team at Ajilon is fantastic and they continue to advocate for you. They were great and I had a positive experience working with them!
The Paladin team is awesome. They work with you to make sure you get a job that fits with your experience and future goals. Great agency to work with!
When I moved to DC without a job, the wonderful recruiters at Paladin (especially Mari Zuccala), took care of me and found me a long term position in only a few weeks. Paladin specializes in creative and comms positions, which can be such a difficult market to crack. They do the hard work for you! While caring about what you’re interested in and whether a job would be a good fit for you, not just if you’re a good fit for the clients. Truly cannot recommend them enough!
Ajilon was very helpful with finding short term work assignments while I went back to school and attempted to make a career transition. Tanner Semmelrock was a great resource and was able to find me a more suitable position that would help with my transition. Althea Colenda was also a great point of contact. She was very passionate and always checked in to see if I was happy in my current situation, and if I wasn't she did everything she could to make it better.
I worked with Althea during my transition into my position. She made the entire process smooth as pie! She was always readily available to answer any questions that I had and was very supportive of me every step of the way. Now it is a year later and I am still at the current position that she placed me in! She really took the time to find a good job that fit my needs and I am forever grateful for it!! I wish I could give this review 10 stars! 💫
I really enjoy working with Randstad. They will work with you to find you employment that suits your needs and skill set. They found me a well paying temp for permanent hire job in a surprisingly short amount of time.
Anomi was my recruiter and she is easy to work with. Great communicator. She frequently checks in with me to make sure my assignment is going well. Which is much appreciated. Highly Recommend!!

I have been w. Randstad since Dec 2018 and it has been a wonderful experience. Anomi was able to match me w. a job based on my interest and skill set. I am still on that assignment and enjoying every moment. The pay is good and I am always paid the same time weekly. Every time I have a question for Anomi, she responds in a very timely manner. I am really enjoying this experience!
My working experience with this office has been very rewarding. Anomi, Allie, and Allyson all worked and still work very hard to match me with favorable work assignments. My pay is always on time and correct. I have been with them over a year and have experienced new and rewarding opportunities in the downtown DC area.
Had a great experience with Randstad Professionals, especially with Sara Touw. She is friendly, professional and positive. Sara was able to find a job very quickly, and whenever I had a question she responded immediately, even after work hours. Highly recommend!!!
You have better chances of finding a job on indeed and the recruiters do not help you get placed.
It is possible to get an interview call with just the listings provided on their website after they submit you to a firm. In my experience, the odds get much higher when you are working closely with one of their recruiting agents.
Long story. After 10 years with this company as an exceptional talent. This client was new to them and had an high turnover rate with this position. One clients viewpoint caused me to have bad mark on my record with NRI. This was conflicting info of what the client told me. I called agency to ask why I had a bad remark. I felt it was one sided. I talk to the VP and let her know all I went through but that didn't change anything.
I have worked with NRI on and off since 2014, and I have ALWAYS been satisfied with the jobs and with the staff. Kristianna Tyler went above and beyond for me. Whenever I hear someone complaining about their job or not having a job, NRI is the one Staffing Company that I refer them to, they are amazing.
