Russet   10 #2 Posted June 1, 2008 Some years ago I worked for agencies in admin jobs, many of those were short-term temping - ranging from 2 days to a week to a month!  Worked for the Council, the NHS and various private sector companies. So short-term jobs are there, it depends on the timing though, you never know when they're coming up.  If you're happy to do admin/office/reception work, I'd sign up asap with some agencies - can suggest PrimeTime Recruitment, The Agency, Sue Ross Recruitment, Sewell Moorhouse. The list is endless tbh, but these 4 definitely got me short-term jobs in the past.  Hope this helps. Btw, no I've never signed up for the Labour Ready one that you are asking about, however have often wondered about it - I suspect they have mostly manual jobs, driving, construction etc. Can't say more than that I'm afraid.

Powerage   10 #3 Posted June 1, 2008 My OH signed up with them they are ok if you want short term to be honest they only really go him 1 day or 2 day jobs and he got a full time job elsewhere. I think most of the jobs are labouring jobs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

You only get one chance when youve been warned by the supervisor and he was replaced by someone more reliable. Your Dad will not work on behalf of our agency again, you have to be reliable and turn up everyday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

abbie07 Â Â 10 #9 Posted June 4, 2008 Hi! Â Me and my friend went to labour ready (the cash today place) when we were at uni to find out what they did and to be honest - it was a bit odd. Basically they wouldn't let us sign up there and then (about 10am on a Thursday i think) as they said you had to be there at 6am (!!) and sign up to work that day only! Â Funnily enough we didn't find this too appealing and I went and signed up with Search Consultancy instead who found me a great job in 2 days! Â Hope this helps, Â Abbie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
