Welcome to the blog! Manpower is a staffing agency with locations all over the Midwest. We’re a franchise office in Bloomington, IL, and we’re passionate about helping people find work! We post weekly, giving you all the latest interview tips, resume boosters, and other information to help you take that next step towards ending your job search (but we like to have fun, too!).
“My special thanks goes to Mr. Jeffery Bradford(Austin) who was assigned to me from day one, and who went over and beyond in supporting me throughout this almost one year journey. He always answered my calls, and explained everything clearly. All the while he never let even my(very thick accent bother him) Lol. Kudus to this young man! I honestly could never have asked for a better team, Manpower is more than a temp company, it feels more of a family and i know a lot of other people share my sentiments. I will always refer everyone who needs a job to look no further than Manpower! you guys rock!”

“I would like to take a moment to highlight how well Kim is doing. She is very detail oriented, she follows our guidance, and she asks when not sure. Not only has she been noticed by our staff, but she has also been noticed by our customer.”

The first month of the Covid pandemic…trying to figure out how our operations would continue was stressful. However, the first day several of our Manpower temporary workers appeared even before their shift started…Manpower temporary workers are continuing to report to work each day and have provided us with stability while we continue to work onsite.

My experience working with Manpower has been great. When I went to Manpower and took all of the testing; I was able to go out on assignment very quickly. They were professional, compassionate to what I was looking for in an employer and matching me with the right company. Manpower will also contact you to follow up on how the job is going as well. I have been with Manpower for a little over a year on the same assignment and I have been happy. I am very glad I made the decision to go Manpower to seek employment. Mattie

I started with manpower 11 years ago when I moved to Rantoul. I have always had a great experience both as an employee and as a line Supervisor as well. I would like to thank you for the service provided to our company. The staff is professional and polite and makes my job easier.

I feel that Manpower has done an excellent job at negotiating our contract to keep our associate employed when there is such turbulence in the job market.

They are awesome; they have always fulfilled our need of participants for focus groups. Their employees are very professional too. They had a representative present to check in participants and make sure everyone showed up.

Anne, Client February 16, 2016
It had been many years since the first time I had reached out to an employment agency, as it were, my situation had made it necessary for me to do so. I am grateful that someone had suggested Manpower. The experience has been handled in a professional and friendly manner, and I was placed quickly. I am very pleased and thankful to the staff at Manpower!

Every single time I step in to the office, I find the staff hard at work. It’s a great thing to see staffing consultants be so thorough in acquiring information from potential employees because every little bit of information helps when trying to find work. The consultant’s work around the clock trying to pair potential employees off with potential employers, which is another great thing. It’s great to have someone in your corner who truly believes that you’re worth going to bat for, that you’re worth taking a chance on. So, in short, quality and excellence.
