If you’re working at a temp job, your goal might be to turn that temporary position into a full-time one. That’s why our office temp agency always tells the workers we place in a new position to treat their temp job like any other position, because employers are still holding you to high standards. If your goal is to turn that next temporary job into a full-time one, the staffing experts at CRG share that goal and will do everything that we can to help you.
Be On Your Best Behavior
Some workers think that a temp job comes with lower standards. It doesn’t. A temp employee is still an important part of the team. You need to be on your best behavior and you can’t give the impression that you don’t care about your job. If you’re holding yourself to a lower standard, it shows. Not behaving like you’re at a full-time, permanent position will dramatically decrease your chances of turning a temp job into a permanent one, and it could even affect how likely temp to hire agencies will be to place you in new positions in the future.
Showcase Your Skills
Whenever possible you should be showing your employer what you can bring to the table. Don’t just do the bare minimum. If you have skills that can help with a project, speak up and let the people above you know. Showing off your skills helps you stand out from the crowd, in a good way, and could cement your position as a crucial part of a team. Naturally, this will increase your chances of going from temp to hire.
Be Professional
Show up on time. Be professional when you’re dealing with colleagues. Don’t waste time, and keep on producing good work. If you treat that temp job like a permanent one and showcase your professionalism, it can help you secure a long-term position.
Be Enthusiastic
One common tip we give to job seekers is to be enthusiastic during the interview. If you show that you’re excited to work somewhere, an employer is more likely to hire you. Think of the temporary job you’re hired to do as an extended interview. If you continue to show enthusiasm it’s more likely that you’ll stand out to your employer, and that will make them more likely to bring you on in a permanent capacity.
Know the Company
Another way to show your commitment to your job is by knowing your company. Knowing more about the goals, history, and products of the firm you’re working for can only help you stand out in your position, and employers aren’t necessarily going to forgive a lack of knowledge from an employee just because they’re a temp.
