Most companies take people on Temp jobs for various reasons. One of the many reasons could be a hiring freeze or a head count problem. On an average, 10% to 20% of the temp jobs annually are converted to permanent jobs at the client's organization. In such cases, when positions open up, you get a fair chance to be absorbed. This is because you know the work better and are used to the client's working style and culture. The client will not look externally for a position where you already are well suited. A few tips will help.
You should meet the right Temp staffing company: Meeting a professional Temp staffing firm is very important. Check their credibility and the clients they work with
Discuss in detail with the recruiter about your preferences and the industry you seek. Your desire for a permanent job should be clearly explained and discussed. This helps the recruiter to map your profile with the client’s requirement
While working as a temp in a client's place, do not project or act that you are a temporary worker. To be precise, the quality of your work should be on par or better than the permanent worker's output. Add value to the job, wherever possible.
Do not differentiate yourself as a temp employee. Be a part of the team and demonstrate your enthusiasm. Put in the extra effort to learn new tasks and take them up if possible. It's important to report to the office in time, always. Dress properly. Because you are on temp, you cannot take these things lightly. Wind up for the day only on completing a given task
Use your interpersonal skills to build rapport with the team. Do not be too demanding and harsh in conversations
Try sharing ideas and suggestions with the team when asked for. Do not implement any ideas unless you are asked or permitted to. Do not show over enthusiasm and aggressiveness, which may not be taken well by others
Always complete the contract period (if any) with the client. Do not keep requesting your seniors to recommend you for a permanent position. You can always express your interest
