This is probably the most commonly asked question about staffing firms. SM will absolutely not take a dime from your pay or ask for money up-front for its help and guidance on your job search. Staffing agencies get paid by the client companies that engage their services, not their workers.

The length of temp assignments is completely dependent on the client’s needs. You could work part-time for a few days. You could work full-time for several months. Or anything in between. It really depends on the work that needs to be done. But generally, temp positions last one to three months.

Even though you’ll be outsourced to client companies, your employer will be Staffmasters. Your pay and benefits will be provided by SM.

Yes, absolutely. There is a new trend in the business world. More and more employers are now hiring on temp workers in order to reduce their hiring risks. When they hire temp workers before permanent workers, they can test out their skills and see how they fit into the company culture and work environment. In turn, they can make more informed hiring decisions. Work hard, make a good impression, and you might be able to turn a temp job into a permanent job.
