Accrue Partners

Wow, I had a great experience with this firm. I was referred by a friend who was placed and met several people in the accounting area and was placed in 30 days. I had a Recruiter who listened to me on my criteria and she only called me on those searches. I found their offices very open and cool, I met the partners twice and they seem to have their pulse on Charlotte and very helpful. I would definitely recommend them. And, my new employer has used them often and as a primary supplier. Pros: Knowledgable about the market, really prepared me with positions Cons: smaller than some firms more

I wonder how long ""Mindy"" has worked for Accrue? Nice to see that those gals are paying her to do more than just catch the phone. Too funny.\r \r Everyone who has worked at AP calls the place 'hell'--no one likes anyone, big-time lying--both to clients and candidates, and manipulation of internal work force featuring lots of in-fighting fueled by, as one survivor tells it, 'those two women who hate each other."" \r \r Just FYI--from someone who's close to someone who worked there. Pros: Nice office/free parking Cons: Everything Else more

I was recommended to this business and researched it before contacting them, finding this website. I kept these posts in mind, but wanted to see what my own experience would be, especially since this company had been highly recommended to me by a trusted and competent professional. I've worked with several temp agencies in the Charlotte, NC and have to admit, this company was one of the fastest and most professional to respond. The communications we've had thus far have been numerous and productive. The interview process went very smoothly and again, very productive. So please don't let the reviews below be your only source of information about this company. I have been extremely pleased so far. Pros: Very professional and courteous staff (including Heather); office in good location Cons: The office set-up had just the basics -- but who cares? I was being placed elsewhere :) more

EXTREMELY UNPROFESSIONAL \r \r They had no clue as to what they were assigning me... I received a call about supporting a VP while the EA was gone; typical EA/AA work. I agreed, and spent 9am - 2pm hand addressing and stamping envelopes. The job did not have any computer or phone access, they were ""farming out"" the EAs duties to the others. My job for the next 3 weeks would be data entry. (How was this going to work with my skill level? I'm a 12 year veteran of working at a CEO/CFO level, with 15 years total experience as an EA/AA)\r \r I told the agency at that time there was a SLIGHT chance that i'd get a last min interview that day, and they said that would be OK. I got the call, apologized for the short notice but I had to leave w/in the hour. Heather actually argued with me, then HUNG UP ON ME. \r \r I was shocked at how unprofessional and rude she was. It's the last time I'll be working with them. Pros: N/A Cons: lack of knowledge about positions, very rude & unprofessional more

This recruitment agency left me with a bad taste in my mouth. \r \r They said to dress 'business casual' which I did, but know one that was employed there looked decent enough to take to dinner. \r \r My recruiter was far less knowledgeable about recruiting and resumes than someone off the street. She ripped apart my resume because it didn't look like the template from Accrue Partners and she was asking me questions from a prepared sheet. She stated that I should remove my management in retail from my resume because people look down on that...WTF. Whose born with an MBA? \r \r She stated that EVERYTHING on my resume should be bulleted; that would have made my resume about 5 PAGES!!! And the recruiter thought I was being unreasonable for the asking salary I requested because I am making that now. \r \r I am looking for new employment to further my career, not shot myself in the foot. I will not be taking any of their phone calls. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS AGENCY TO ANYONE...EVEN MY ENEMIES!!! Pros: the office is located in a neat building Cons: recruiters have no real world experience to be of any actual help to my job search more

Called me to take a job and when I said I was already working through another agency they started asking million questions and tried to tell me I need to work with them only etc....very rude, felt uncomfortable.....most of the positions they offered were more low end and did not pay the salary that the other agencies offered. Told them to remove me from there database Pros: NOTHING Cons: Limited positions, rude staff, small office more
