Pros

Very professional service. Great way for new accountants to build their resume and start networking. As an SPS Consultant, you are paid even during the downtime in between contracts, which motivates Accountemps to find you new opportunities more quickly. Also you receive the appropriate benefits that come with a full-time position.

Cons

Generally, they expect an employee to work as an SPS Consultant for about 2 years before you start looking to get hired full-time at the companies you contract with. A firm wanted to hire me while I was 5 months in, which resulted in a lot of pushback from Robert Half. Eventually, the firm was able to come to an agreement with Robert Half to steal me away. Expect some tension if you find yourself in a similar situation.

Pros

Always reaching out about new jobs coming across their desk - got work very fast.

Cons

You have to call. At first I was just applying online but it wasn’t until I called to that they actually saw my applications.

Pros

Not much to say here, unfortunately.

Cons

In the technology practice, the unwillingness to adapt to a rapidly changing market can no longer be ignored. Too many decisions continue to be justified by the mindset of "this is the way we've always done things," even when those approaches are becoming less effective or counter-productive. While competitors evolve their business models, recruiting strategies, and client engagement practices, continues to be reluctant to challenge long-standing processes and assumptions. The impact of this resistance to change is becoming increasingly visible in the market. Clients and candidates have more options than ever before, and perceptions of the organization are being shaped by experiences that no longer align with current expectations. Without a willingness to listen to feedback and embrace new approaches, there is a real risk of causing lasting damage to the company's reputation, employee retention, and long-term competitiveness.
