I will add that our LCCs for APIA (Montgomery County) have been good. I also think the profiles and the availability of all the interview info etc. are good -- I don't find them that bare bones but I like seeing everything at once.

I also actually prefer the free-for-all/no exclusives with candidates because I want the widest pool possible and I want to be anonymous while I look at applications rather than just being able to look at the in-depth info for a few at a time and having that open up communication with candidates. Given that I read hundreds of applications and am very picky about who I even email to start out with, and I don't like having to outright reject candidates who aren't the right fit directly, I prefer the APIA matching process.

We are with APIA and I ditto the comments from PP. I like our LCC and feel like she does a good job vetting families and candidates (especially from our successful rematch experience). I also like the open matching process - it can feel a little like speed dating, but I like that the candidates can compare for themselves and hopefully choose our family because we're the right fit for them, not because they haven't seen enough families to know what they would and wouldn't like.

I also ditto PP that if you want to look around with other agencies, they should waive the fees for you to look at candidates until you're ready to match. [/quote]
