Folks need to be aware that TechForce is using unfair hiring practices.The basic rule for criminal background checks in Texas is an employer using a credit reporting agency may go back seven years in a criminal background check. ... Under Texas law, most applicants cut off at a seven year check unless the salary exceeds $75,000.TechForce is going beyound the 7 year law.The previous regulations prohibited employers from discriminating on the basis of any criminal record, unless the criminal record related to the inherent requirements of a position. Now, employers must not discriminate on the basis of an irrelevant criminal record.Under Texas law (TX Bus. Code Sec. 20.05), the seven-year check is applicable unless the salary for the open position exceeds $75,000 annually. If the prospect is applying for a job that pays more than $75,000 annually, the employer is entitled to evaluate the applicant’s records from the point the applicant turned eighteen.My experience with TechForce was roughly 2 years ago plus I was not aware about the laws then.For folks who are ever discriminated against:A charge must be filed with EEOC within 180 days from the date of the alleged violation, in order to protect the charging partys rights. This 180-day filing deadline may be extended to 300 days if the charge also is covered by a state or local anti-discrimination law.
Mike looked for the best jobs to suit my needs and goals. Wonderful staffing company, very responsive.
Amazing Agency! I was struggling to find work until I called this company. The same day I called, I was instructed to come in for some paperwork and was scheduled for an interview the next day! Thanks again Ivy and everyone else for the help!
This agency is very helpful.They always helped me out when I need their help.Very courteous.I will recommend this agency.Thank you for all your help.
Very professional and informative about what their customer was looking for compared to my skill sets. Michael was very knowledgeable about not only the processes but also how to focus my experience on their needs!
Ivy was a great help at getting me a job during these rough times. Im glad that I ran into Tech Force. Contract was up and got hired on full time. Thanks to Ivy and Belinda for all the great and friendly help throughtout the process.
Thank you to my recruiter Mike Saucedo for helping me with my job search. I got hired on! Couldnt be more thankful. Very professional, communication was excellent during my search. Definitely going to refer 👍
Checked out a position they had for a order selector, waited 3 days and got a call asking if i was interested. Now Im waiting for the drug test to clear and boom I got a job. Total time is gonna be less than 1 week. 5 stars all the way.
A really good staffing agency to go thru if your looking for a permanent job thanks to Mike for helping me on finding the best opportunity job that I needed .
I had such an awesome and positive experience with TechForce! I would definitely recommend this agency to family and friends! Since the moment you walk in the front doors, they treat you professional! Everyone from the receptionist Susanna Barron, Ms. Ivy Villagran ( client service manager) to the pay roll dept. have been so nice! I will forever feel grateful that they gave me the opportunity and chance to work for them and now my current employer!
Michelle is the best recruiter ever! She was very empathetic, professional and responsive when it came to any concerns that I had with an assignment. I would recommend this company to anyone who is serious about finding a job and having that support when you need it!
Great with helping me find a good fit in a new town! First time with a temp company and it only took the 90 days to get the job Ive been looking for. Thank you!
I’m very grateful for the attention and professionalism in which I was treatedThank you much
Great experience. Couldnt be more thankful for Techforce for landing me a job moving back to Texas.Thank you Michelle for the opportunity I needed. Professional, Reasonable, and to the point. Three thumbs up. God bless.
Shannon is such an awesome and helpful person! Very friendly and kind.
I had retired from my last job, but not ready to stop working. After bouncing around with a few jobs I thought and see what a temp agency could do for me. So I came across Tech Force and met with Mike, he got me set up with the San Antonio Housing Authority. After about 6 months I was offered a permanent position. I could not have gotten the job on my own. Mike and the whole staff are very professional and called me to see how I was doing. I would highly recommend them to everyone.
My rep is Michelle and she is wonderful. She got me the dream job that I never could of got on my own. Very professional group of people. They work with you and help you with anything that comes up. I recommend TechForce!
Ive had a great experience dealing with TechForce. Ivy is always very positive and helpful, and was able to find me a position with a great company. Ivy and TechForce have made everything extremely simple and worthwhile.
I had awesome experience working with TechForce. Ivy has been of great help to me. Through her I had my dream job . Thank you TechForce
Have yet to work there, however the recruiter I spoke with Mike Tennell made the hiring process quick and as easy as possible! Definitely can not wait to work with them, I felt at home and eager to work with them because of his help and attitude while over the phone with me.
Good Morning I have to say this was a awesome experience. I applied for a job got the call to come in for the interview with Michelle King and with in one wk Im back too work with a great company. Thank tou Michelle for all your hard work. YOU ARE AWESOME
My recruiter was really responsible in keeping up with me and also helping me find a real good position her name is ivy I would really recommend talking to her if your looking for work she will do her best to get you in a good job and to make sure you succeed in the position thank you
If any body is looking for a job I would recommend techforce the staff was very helpful if I needed help they where always there
Miss Ivy was always very supportive and helpful. The entire team is nice, professional and polite. Ivy made my recruiting process seamless and timely. She was always available to answer all my questions when in doubt. She is a great lady. Ill score them 100%.
Mike S from Techforce definitely took care of me . This staffing agency is professional and communication is great . I got into a great company thank you techforce.
This place has not returned any of the several calls I have made to them over the last month!! I keep getting transferred to Michelle or Amanda and neither one has yet to respond! Very inconsistent and inconsiderate.
I would like to thank Ivy for placing me at a respectful company that helped with a temporary position. She understood the position i was in and made an effort to find a place for me until i landed a permanent position. I would definitely give Ivy a very positive review for all her hard work.
I dont think any company that will fire an employee for getting hurt on the job is a good company period. Thats exactly what Veronica did. I used to work for the South location. I only hope karma has come back threefold on her. And this company is lucky as hell I didnt sue them. If I had, both their branches would be closed instead of just one.
I was immediately placed on a great Job assignment that I love and I want to say thank you so much to ivy for the amazing jobsVery professional, process from Start to finish was easy, quick . That delivered excellent service, and provided all the information needed to get a job. My representative Ivy Villagran was very helpful and knowledgeable
I have had an amazing opportunity with SWRI while working with Joseph he had told me what the job had entailed and yes I was very interested in the job but reluctant because I didnt really know what I was going to be doing and once I started working here as a temp I have fallen in love with my job all thanks to joseph.
I had an Amazing experience with Mrs. Michelle King. Terrific woman of dedication.
I want thank you guys at tech force. Really helpful. I my job pretty quick. Ivy thank you so much for your help.
Great place to work for. The Whole staff was was a pleasure! Especially Ivy did a wonderful job finding placement for me. Thanks guys
Defiantly a awesome place to find work. Gill the manager will go out of his way to make sure if you have a issue it will be handed properly. They are a good group of people
I have never met a more successful recruiting team, so knowledgeable in their clients. The most pleasant Administrative assistant. I went in and was hired on the spot for the company !!!
The people here are very nice and welcoming!! They sat down with me for less than 10 minutes. And found me a job in no time!! Very happy with their service!!
The agency Techforce assigned me immediately in a good work place, covering all my expects. And the attention of Ivy it was great and wonderful.
Great opportunity for youth ready to work!
I have applied for a position that Techforce was offering and went thru the whole interview with Selina and I was informed that I was a perfect candidate for a position that was available around the second week of November. I was also informed that I would be scheduled an interview for such position. Now it December 3rd today and I was emailed from the president of Techforce assuring that I will be hearing from them after the Thanksgiving holidays and well as of today I have not even heard anything else from them. This agency has made it hopeless for anyone searching for employment with their recruiters. Don’t waste your time here they have promised and can’t deliver. Aerotek is the place to go if you are seeking employment opportunity.
A few years back I was scheduled to go to work for a company through Techforce. There was some confusion about what shift I would be working. Long story short, they tried to strong arm me into a 3rd shift so I pulled out and said no thanks. Since then Ive tried to apply for other assignments and its ALWAYS the same excuse...Your background isnt clear. Oh, but it was clear when you needed me on that graveyard shift, right? Dont waste your time with these guys if youre looking for work. Go somewhere that actually have people with respect and integrity like Aerotek and Randstad.
Wow!!! it was my best experience in an agency so far, the staff was very attentive and welcoming, my representative Jorge was very Helpful and in less than 5 min i had a Job opportunity, Very happy With the service.
Have loved working here, great staff and supportive environment!
I went in for a job, was told I was a prospect for a night shift position, my recruiter got a promotion and they gave me to another. When that happened the new recruiter just brushed me off. I wasted my time coming here, very disappointed.
The lady at the front desk is rude!!!
Very professional, process from Start to finish was easy, quick . That delivered excellent service, and provided all the information needed to get a job. My representative Ivy Villagran was personable and consise and to the point.
Very easy walked thru application process and started working the next day.
Jorge Cajiao did a great job, he gave me the aprópiate information to get me started.
Very courteous, prompt and professional...Thanks Jorge Cajiao for making it a great experience!
The were prompt, courteous, and very knowledgeable. I recommend techforce to anyone!!!
Got an interview with one of the ladys named Ivy, shes a really nice lady.
The staff and atmosphere was very professional, and the application process was efficient. I would have liked them to require more information from the employer, such as, intro/training, permanent hire potential/intentions.
Good people.theyll send you to work the next day!
Jorge did an outstanding job, he had great personality and was very informative

Called Joseph, 1-2 a week, 3 weeks in a row, and was told there wasnt job available but I constantly saw jobs posted that i qualified for.
Helpful staff and nice atmosphere.
Very nice staff all around
Waste of time and gas they don’t help find you a job at all & they also discriminate.
This place is a waste of time dont even bother going in. This office only cares about helping themselves and not the applicant.
Very professional, outstanding group.
They had several positions available based on my experience and had them right away.
Fast professional and very helpful
They are great people to work with and for !!!
Prompt and professional
