Make Temporary Employment Agencies Work for You


Have you considered a temporary job to help pay the bills while you land that permanent position? Nowadays, temporary agencies specialize and can place people in just about every career field.

There are long term assignments and, in many cases, temporary agencies may provide benefits to their employees: paid holidays, medical & dental coverage, life insurance, and 401K plan. Ask a lot of questions about the cost of the benefits to you.

Temp jobs can provide you with experience in industries and careers you where you might not worked before. This is a good way to enhance your resume. If you are not happy with the assignment or the employer, you can move on to your next position and start fresh.

A temp job can also be a foot-in-the-door at a company you are interested in. And temporary assignments can turn to permanent employment. It is estimated that 90% of all companies use temporary employees. More and more, companies use temporary agencies to screen their employees and to send them the best candidate for their ‘temporary’ assignment. If the company likes the employee, he/she may end up with a permanent position. If they don’t like the employee, they can request another be sent, without any commitment on their part. So, what are you waiting for?
