Manpower understands that our employees are important stakeholders in our success. We value our employees and strive to offer exceptional service to each and every applicant, candidate and employee affiliated with our company. Here's what Manpower's employees have to say:
Do clients hire Manpower associates permanently?
"…thanks for your help and working with Manpower opened this opportunity to get employed with Casey's. It is a great job and I couldn't ask for better and more caring people to work with. My 21 month son, Nathaniel has been going to the daycare there part time since a month after I started the assignment and loves going to "school." Thanks again!"
Darcie - Ankeny
"Manpower helped me transition from a temporary worker to a full-time employee effortlessly, by giving me the training I needed and setting up the interviews and meeting."
Chase - Ames "Manpower has helped me tremendously. Before I started with Manpower I was working in a dead end job plus having to drive two hours to work each day. I started at Manpower in May of 2006 and within six months of my hire date I was a full-time employee with the company they placed me at plus had cut my driving time by over half. Not to mention my pay had increased tremendously. Manpower is a great place to work and it may only be temporary work at times but as in my case it could lead to a permanent placement." Arlo - Ames "Manpower was an excellent path for me to take to get my foot in the door at Sauer-Danfoss. This allowed me to prove myself and in turn lead to a promotion with more responsibility as a Sauer-Danfoss employee. I'm always looking for ways to improve myself and Manpower allowed me to do this."
"Through my association with Manpower, I have learned that Manpower treats their employees with the respect and gratitude that is quite lacking within so many other places of employment today. Manpower not only employed me as one of their own, but actively sought to further my career goals, and helped me to achieve my current full time position. Such a helpful system of services and people exemplifies the foundation that Manpower is based upon: your life and your goals." Ryan - Ames
"...I'm not sure if you heard this or not, but Pioneer hired me on full time following my temporary placement last fall. I've been full time here for around 8 months and I'm loving it. It gets better! DuPont Government Affairs is in the process of promoting and moving me to
Mary - Des Moines
"Last summer when I was in need of a job, I turned to Manpower for help. They matched my skills and experience with their available jobs and I began working soon after. In addition, their staff was very friendly and helpful when answering any questions that I had. After working for only a few months on my assignment, I got hired on as a full-time employee. Thanks, Manpower!" Hsin-Wei - Ames
"I am going to a new department, Investment Accounting. I’m very excited. Thanks for your help. Manpower allowed me to get my foot in the door, and opened a great opportunity!..." Shane - Des Moines
I am proud to announce that I was offered a full time position with Principal Financial Group... So I regret to inform you that this assignment will be my last with Manpower at this time. I would, however, like to thank you for helping me get my foot in the door. The staff at Manpower was great and you’ve been a major help. I know I can say I wouldn’t be where I am going if it weren’t for you and the Manpower staff in
Thanks so much to you and Cheryl as I wouldn’t have been in the position to apply for such a great full-time job with this company, without your guys’ help. I’m told I actually beat out over 12 internal employees vying for the spot as well! It has truly been a pleasure to work with your company, and the professionalism and opportunity you offer to those seeking such careers is truly great. I truly appreciate everything Manpower has done, and hope to stay in touch in the future! Thanks for all of your great wishes and again I truly appreciate your help with everything!
I have limited availability. Does Manpower have job opportunities to fit my schedule? "Thank you for the assignment at MidAmerican Energy. I really needed a job during the holidays and you made that happen. I am very grateful to Manpower."

"I started with Manpower thinking it would be a great way to obtain a summer job. Manpower found me an excellent position at Principal where I was able to gain important job skills, confidence and make new friends. The first summer went so well, I decided to work through Manpower the next summer." Shannon –
Nick - Des Moines
I am semi-retired. How will Manpower work for me?
"...As a retired person, Manpower is the perfect job for me--it gets me out in the working world, provides some extra income, and I still have time to enjoy my retirement years, too." Judy - Fort Dodge Does working thru Manpower really make a difference? “From the minute I walked in the door to Manpower I knew that I had made the right decision. The friendly, helpful staff made the task of finding a new career easy! They took the time to get to know me, then, matched my personality and skills to the right job. I would highly recommend Manpower to anyone looking to make a change.”
Julie -
I chose Manpower for a couple reasons, one because I have friends and past co-workers who have gone through them and had a good experience and two because I was looking for a part time job, and I was hoping they could find me one faster than me applying and interviewing on my own. I realize it is hard to get a descent part time job, so I knew they could find me a good company to work for. They did just that, all within 2 weeks. I applied at Manpower, did my testing and interview with them, had an interview at a well known company, and got hired! I will recommend Manpower to anyone who will listen. In fact I have already told a couple friends they should go there and apply, it is easy, fast and the staff is very friendly and helpful." "Through my association with Manpower, I have learned that Manpower treats their employees with the respect and gratitude that is quite lacking within so many other places of employment today. Manpower not only employed me as one of their own, but actively sought to further my career goals, and helped me to achieve my current full time position. Such a helpful system of services and people exemplifies the foundation that Manpower is based upon: your life and your goals." Ryan - Ames
"...Everyone that I came in contact with, from the staff members that took my application the first time I entered the Ames Manpower office to the ones that sat in for Bev (in particular Deb) when she was away, treated me with respect and did everything they could to make me feel comfortable. Thanks Deb for taking the time to give me some pointers on my resume. It was greatly appreciated. I will continue to recommend Manpower to friends looking for employment." Ron –
"After many years in the same job, I decided to explore the job current market through Manpower. The staff at Manpower told me that they had the perfect job for me. Manpower’s staff was professional, courteous and efficient. From the moment I stepped in the Manpower door to begin the paperwork process through the final interview with my new employer, I was impressed with Manpower’s quick turnaround in communications between the company and myself. Thank you Manpower for providing me the opportunity to find a job that I enjoy going to every day!" Christina - Fort Dodge
"…Once again, another milestone has taken place and I am truly happy the two of you were a part of it! Thank you both for the part you’ve played in my getting here. It takes a lot to do what the two of you do everyday in helping all of us get a position, maintain a position, and move forward (and remain sane)! Anyway, thanks for doing what you two do it truly makes a difference. It is a pleasure working with and knowing you both. I appreciate all of the assistance and instruction you provide. The friendship we’ve developed over these many years is a bonus." Shirley – Brenda - Fort Dodge

"I just want to express my appreciation for all your assistance and encouragement during the recruitment process. In addition, your timely advice and insight on how to win the position was instrumental in landing this exciting International Logistics opportunity. To be able to land this job, with this compensation package, in the exact location that I was looking for, is beyond all my expectations." Beth - Des Moines
Luke - Des Moines
Does Manpower provide training to enhance my skills? "It has been great and a wonderful experience working as a Temporary employee at Manpower. I learned the necessary skills about working in teams and also enhanced my communication skills. Overall, the thorough training I got from Manpower helped me land a great fulltime position and now am a better asset to my company. I love my job and big thanks to Manpower..." "....Then, from the perspective of being a temporary employee, I found the interviewing, testing and placement procedures to be excellent. I believe they care about their employees and getting them placed into positions that fit their skills and desires. I've also gone through some of the on-line training that Manpower offers and found that very helpful in upgrading my skills."

I really can’t thank you enough for getting me such a great job this summer! This job was exactly what I needed for the summer. I really enjoyed being a part of this company. The job and the people are really great here!..."

"When I applied to Manpower in
"I would highly recommend Josh's services based on my experience. He was able to find me a great position in design engineering with strong opportunities for growth.
