What People Say About Accurate

“My dad and I had to drive about 40 minutes out to get here, and it was beyond worth it. We’ve tried agencies closer to home, with completely different level of service and attention. All staff here is incredibly friendly and patient, especially Juana who’s been helping us directly for about a week. She made things happen and with the kindest attitude. We greatly appreciate this place and recommend it, even if it’s a bit further away from you!”

Vanessa M.

“Applied for a higher level operations role being sourced for one of Accurates clients, worked with Martin throughout the process and he has been communicative, engaging and quickly understood my fit for the targeted role. He was able to assess my background and his knowledge of the clients needs to provide great feedback and move both sides through the evaluation process. I highly recommend working with Martin.”

Andrew N.

“I had a great experience here. This is the first time I received fair treatment at a Temp office. Usually it’s always people being rude and giving you the run around but I’m glad I got to be helped by Montserrat. She helped me through the process and set expectations with me on the type of work and times I was also looking for despite how busy they were that day. The couple of times I have walked in there she also has greeted me and answered any questions. Some of the other staff also seem friendly. I highly recommend this location and from my experience here to ask for her to help you because I personally had a great experience along with 2 other friends I recommended.”

Paty C.

“I am pleased to say that I have had a very nice experience with the treatment of the staff. Above all, the attention of Maria A García always guides you in everything and almost always places you in a company that helps in everything within her reach.”

Anais L.

“Thanks to Maria and Accurate for the next day after I asked for help, they found me a job. And not only that but you were always looking for better options until now that I am in an excellent job. Anyone I know always recommends you, without a doubt the best at their job, thank you.”

Deykembert A.

“All I have to say is that Accurate personnel has given me the opportunity to become successful with all the necessary tools to become efficient, in my job position as an onsite supervisor, our coach and Mentor Raquel Acevedo does a well job! Building strong efficient associates to provide the best and professional customer service, I'm proud to be part of that team. The Accurate team.. from the East to the West Accurate is the best.”
