Robert Half Reviews

11 years ago, I applied for a job with this con artist company. I never went for an interview or worked for them. This morning, I received a group text message, showing my phone number and other recipients' numbers, begging for work! This is unacceptable! I'm filing a better business bureau complaint! My number shouldn't be available to others.

who was micromanaging and rude and disrespectful towards me. The entire time of my. After I expressed concerns to this agency, my assignment was cut short.

I had been with Robert Half for over 2 years now. They always have jobs available. But they never want me to work at the jobs that I'm qualified for. They always have some excuse and why I can't do the job. But when I apply for the job myself through the company, they want me to work there. So I don't understand what Robert has problems then. At that when they finally found me a job after 2 years they told me the position would be. I would be on the computer mainly. And I would also be taking orders from the warehouse like general labor innocence, but it's for a shipping clerk. So they told me it was temp to hire but when I got there The company told me they were closing down in In January. So it was never temp to hire, it was just temp, they could have just been Honest about it, but then the position I had to do when I got there was nowhere near what they said.

This company continues to disappoint. Recruiters have poor communication skills. I’m not sure who hired them, but it’s safe to say, a company who hires these type of recruiters, aren’t going to be able to recruit good people. I’m not sure what company would look at these reviews and actually hire them. Do not recommend.

I called Robert Half as I needed someone to do my books while we had no coverage. We explained what we needed, they told me $80/hr and then charged me 89$/hr. They recommended (placed) this person who to my surprise (after the fact) had never been vetted in a real life situation and he did not meet our expectations. The only offer they made was to remove him which meant the few days that he had of training from my exiting person, would have been completely lost, so I requested that you send someone in to take a look at what he was doing and see if he could help and that person showed up a day late, and did not add value (that coming from the Robert Half person already here) and dismissed himself at the end of the day. Where was I to go from there?

I have applied to over 25 positions and no one reached out. So, I reached out to this agency for weeks, calling three times each week. Finally, during the third week, a representative referred me to the accounting team. No one reached out to me, so I called again the next week. A man from the accounting team called me to set up an interview. He acted as if he couldn’t do the interview at that moment, but he scheduled the appointment an hour later. During the interview he found out that I was crossed trained so I guess he didn’t feel comfortable sending me out. I have a MBA and I learned pretty fast. He stated that he was going to refer me to another department.

Highest price in industry yet do not properly vet candidates for specific job. We believe the references were bogus. Excessive emails to employer almost daily. We requested someone with MS Office proficiency and experience scheduling. We got someone with no computer skills, poor speller, frequently late to office and had the nerve to ask if she could work from home despite most of the tasks requiring on site presence. We paid $39/hour for an employee that was a $5/hour candidate. We were also inundated with emails from Robert Half. We will never use them again.

We hired Robert Half to place a Senior Tax Accountant during a critical time for our CPA firm and paid nearly $20,000 in fees. Unfortunately, the candidate they referred lacked the necessary qualifications and public accounting experience. More concerning, after we raised performance concerns with our recruiter—well within the 90-day guarantee period—Robert Half disclosed our feedback directly to the candidate without our consent. This breach of discretion completely undermined the working relationship and led to the candidate’s resignation mid-tax season.

I recently had an unfortunate experience with a recruiter from Robert Half named Klaudia C. She came across as curt throughout the conversation and instructed me to expect an email from her with further details about the job. Despite confirming my email—which is clearly listed on my resume—multiple times, I never received any follow-up communication. She also scheduled a call for the following day, which did not happen The lack of follow-through and professionalism was disappointing and not reflective of the standards I would expect from a firm with Robert Half’s reputation.

I had an extremely disappointing experience with Robert Half Agency. They conducted a background check before even offering an interview or employment, appearing to prioritize their own benefit rather than genuinely working to place me in a job. I was informed of an opening for a one-month-and-two-week position, with the possibility of an extension. However, before they would place me in the role, they insisted I complete the WOTC survey. The recruiter I work with was Julio **.
