I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Robert Half (Columbus, OH) in Feb 2010
Interview
The interview with the people at RH is very easy. There is no reason to be nervous. I was given two opportunities within two weeks. When they ask you what you want be specific. That is the key. They have alot of people to choose from. Give them a reason to choose you by being specific in what you are looking for. If you go in just wanting a job, it might not go over as well. I was very specific with where I wanted to work and they got me an interview with who I wanted within two weeks. The job opportunity was even temp to hire. Go in tan, well groomed, nice suit and be somewhat articulate. Yes you are 'underpaid' but times are tough and this was the only option for me to get into a large public. I took four 30 min test. Office word, excel, powerpoint. and an accounting test. The accounting test covered AR, AP, payroll, and general ledger stuff.
I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Robert Half (Greensboro, NC) in Oct 2015
Interview
Very straight forward. There were a lot of questions based upon past experiences and my resume. The main purpose was to get to know you and see what you are looking for. From there they try to match you up with something that you are like as well as qualified for. This is why they ask a lot about your previous employment and skill set you acquired.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What were some of the skills you acquired at your previous job
I applied online. I interviewed at Robert Half (Lynnwood, WA) in Sept 2014
Interview
The process was extremely professional, but not at all intimidating. They sit down with you, look at your qualifications, and figure out where they can place you to maximise your benefit and the benefits of their subcontractors. Since the interview isn't so much to determine 'if' they will higher you, as 'which' contracts are available to someone with your qualifications, it's hard to be too intimidated. I suppose if you have a glaring criminal record, zero accounting, or administrative experience, it might be a bit hard to find work here, but otherwise, you're probably good.

Interview
After I applied couple positions online, one of the recruiters called me and set up an interview with me about one week later. Before the interview, they emailed me a link to complete a quiz. It is just basic knowledge about Word and Excel. During the interview, they just go through your resume and ask you about your desirable wage and interested companies. In the same week of the interview, they called me again, and got me on an assignment with an international company.
