I have worked at a staffing agency for eight months now. Do you think that I should work there for a year?

Question

Most of my jobs that I had were work study or temporary (except 2) and I am looking for a job that I can enjoy and something that is more consistent. I have graduated from college a year ago and want something permanent. I need advice....... also, do you think that it's important to put temp jobs on a resume even if they lasted a year or less? I did have that many permanent jobs because I wanted to see what I would like.

Answer 1

A year work in a resume looks better than 8 months, but when you want to leave a job find another  job first so once you leave. You have a job waiting for you.

Answer 2

yes u should!! its only 4 months x*x

Answer 3

Definitely put them down, if they were positive experiences and you left on good terms.  Any opportunity to put down experience is one you should take.  As far as your current job is concerned, you should try to stick it out.  I work in HR myself and I can tell you that if you stick it out you will at least be able to cash out your earned vacation (at least that's how it works here). Good luck to you.

Answer 4

yes

Answer 5

Do what makes you happy.

Answer 6

If you have already been there this long, you might as well go for a year and see what raise you will get.

Answer 7

you probably should stay there for at least a year.  that is, if you don't hate it.

Answer 8

no dont put every little job on a resume. you only need to put the name of the temp company along with the job duties emplyees will notice that you spent time working with a temp agancy and most of the time depending on the posistion they will ask you to discribe the job duties. you dont want to have a long list of little things here and there. its better to show that you have stayed dedicated to a temp agancy without problem. because the temp agency i your boss not the assignment your on
