Man, I hear ya! I HATE employment agencies!

Last year I was out of work for 1.5 months and was registered at 6 different employment agencies. Each rushed me into their offices and ran me ragged with all their little "requirements" (typing tests and the like) then said "Oh, that salary?? Pshaw! Not a problem! We can get you twice that!" - - yeah, never heard from ANY of them again.

When I finally did get a job (on my own I might add) I sent a letter to all of them and thanked them for nothing.

I no longer apply to jobs that are listed with an agency. I don't care HOW good the job sounds or how perfect it would be for me or I for it.

I'm not really sure how it saves the employer so much hassle anyway. They STILL have to meet with me before I get hired. What? They don't have to sift through the resumes? Have a secretary do it like everything else! LOL

I think the only thing employment agencies are getting employers are people who are so desparate for a job they will do anything for it. Well, that ain't me pal! LOL
