If you are in need of work and you are turning to temping in New York City NYC, you have to just start registering with temp agencies until you find some that give you work.
There is no real way to know which agencies will give you work and which ones won't. I once registered with this agency at about 1:00 pm and I was convinced that I would never hear from them. The agency called me at 4:00 pm that day asking me if I could work THAT night.
Agency A and Agency B ullshit
I walked into Agency B and spent about two hours taking idiot tests. This idiot agency had actually called me to come in and register. After taking the stupid tests for word processors this person comes out and tells me that my math scores were a little low. This person looked a tad surprised when I told her that I had an engineering degree. I was invited to take the tests again. Yea right, if you had any fucking work I wouldn’t be taking any fucking tests; so like go fuck yourself.
I walked into Agency A and I take the tests that are generally standard at most temp agencies. While I’m talking to the temp counselor, a call comes in and the counselor turns to me and asks me if I can work THAT NIGHT. When I say yes, the counselor talks on the phone a little bit then she turns to me again and asks “Do you have a problem with temp to perm”? I say no. I take the assignment, great money, great long term job.
The above is what you will likely experience if you decide to temp in NYC. You can sit in some idiot attitude agency’s office and watch them masturbate or you can go to agencies that actually have work. The agencies that are making tons of money don’t give a shit how you look, what race you are or even if you are qualified. The agencies making no money are the one’s bragging about what investment banks they have; every fucking agency in NYC is sending bitches to the same handful of idiot fucking investment banks; fuck the fucking investment banks.
