Grow your Career with Canada’s #1 Transit Recruitment Agency
Breaking into the workforce can be challenging. If you are a new graduate or transitioning into a different field, it can be scary and stressful. A staffing agency is an excellent way to get your foot into the transit industry and develop your career. With your eagerness and their expertise, your career will take off in no time, and you’ll be wondering what you were so stressed about in the first place.
1. Temporary jobs can lead to a permanent role
While the idea of temporary work might turn some people off, there is always the possibility of it turning into something more. If you prove your worth, a contract has the potential of turning into a full-time position. And even if none of them do, you now have a fantastic and diverse resume giving you an edge on your competition when you do apply for that dream job.
2. Work temporary jobs while job hunting
Some of these jobs might not be exactly what you envision for yourself long term. But they can allow you to get some experience while you hunt for your dream job. Working these temporary roles gives you experience and financial security, and stability without fear of being out of a job for months on end during your search.
3. Grow your network
Once you finish a contract, that doesn’t mean the connections you made go away. With each job you take on, the more people you meet, thus growing your network. These connections stay with your forever, and you never know where they can lead you. Although a past temporary contract seems like a blip in time, it can have a lasting effect on your career if you take the time to make meaningful connections.
4. Quick turnover rate
Traditional job hunting can take weeks or even months. For many new grads, so much time was spent in school, leaving no time to get hands-on experience. This can be tricky when you are suddenly shoved into “the real world.” You are more likely to quickly find a job with a staffing agency than applying on your own. Live Assets has a 97% filling rate for jobs making them Toronto’s #1 Transit Recruitment Agency.
5. Opportunities for different work environments
Working these temporary jobs allows you to work in a variety of companies and environments. These experiences help you get to know yourself better and learn what works for you and what doesn’t. What are your weaknesses and strengths? Do you prefer independent work or team-based projects? These are all questions that will come up in an interview at some point, and with a lack of experience, they can be tricky to answer. Fortunately, you will have tons of experience to answer these questions if you work with a staffing agency.
6. Work directly with the experts
Transit staffing solution agencies like Live Assets dedicate their business to knowing their candidates’ needs and career goals. Live Assets invests in their candidates to make them the best they can be. With these services offered for free, you gain access to resume and interview help.
