If you are temping for us on short notice, your consultant will run through this information with you over the phone as well as send you an email for your records.

+What should I wear to a temp assignment?

Your consultant will advise of the dress code individually tailored to your assignment. They will also provide you with a copy of our “Dress for Success” Dress Code Standards, which can also be found on our Dress for Success web page.

You should contact your consultant with any questions you have relating to your assignment. We will be able to advise you what to do next.

+What do I do if I am sick while on assignment?

You must call your consultant as soon as you know that you will be unable to make it into work that day. Your consultant will then call the company you are temping at and advise them that you are unwell and when you will return to work.

If you were looking for temp work that is very specific and you haven’t heard from us, maybe you should reconsider dropping your minimum salary requirements, extending the areas you wish to commute to, etc.

If you have indicated to us that you are looking for both temporary and permanent work, you will be automatically considered for both types of work.
