Out of a Job Should You Join a Temp Service

Are you out of a job and wondering if you should join a temp service. Temp agencies are not as great as they seem but it is becoming your only option if you are unemployed these days.

Unless of course you have a major in a certain field.

If you are out of a job then I would definitely consider joining a temp service. They usually find you a job with in a week or so. It is also a guarantee for work. It is a nice advantage knowing you have some one looking after you. The problem is the jobs can be inconsistent and sometime hard labor for a small amount of money. You also want to make sure you have your work face on. You want to make them look good and if you get compliments from the client to the temp service. If something happens they will push harder to find you another job.

I think temp agencies are great. It is a good way to accumulate experience for general labor. It is much easier going into a job knowing what you are doing rather than being completely oblivious to the task at hand.

A great advantage of a temp agency is that you may find the jackpot. I worked for five months through the agency making 10 dollars an hour. I got hired and 3 years later I was the assistant manager making 19 dollars an hour. It is a good possibility you could find your life long job. You might have to be patient.
