Brittany Carpenter| April 28, 2017| Job Search

May is fast approaching, and so comes that time of year again where college students are on the hunt for post-graduation jobs. Upon spending thousands of dollars on a well-earned degree, graduates are eager to seek out positions that will help to pay off their college loans. After all, the average college student has roughly $37,000 in student debt.

So graduates, how can we help?

While the job search might seem endless and discouraging, don’t give up hope! These things take time, and can require a little bit of support. That’s where we come in! Expand your horizon and consider reaching out to a staffing agency.

Here is a common misconception: Staffing agencies are just for temporary employment. While yes, we do assist companies in filling immediate-hire temp positions, our scope of work expands beyond that. We also offer direct hire opportunities, as well as temporary positions that often transition into permanent employment.

Recent graduates may also want to consider the benefits of temping. Are you waiting to land that perfect dream job, but need to support yourself financially in the meantime? Temping is a great way to boost your resume, refine or learn new skills, and help you keep afloat while searching for that permanent position. Temping also allows you to meet new people and expand your network, which will only benefit your job search in the long run.

Whether you are looking for temporary employment or seeking something more permanent, our recruiters are here to help you find the right fit for your needs.
