Employer Tip!

2009-10-14T14:37:00.000-07:00

Why work with a temporary staffing company? STAFFING FLEXIBILITY: with the popularity and staying power of flexible work arrangements, employers need to stay current with the needs of today’s work force.

Are you thinking of being Temp Trendy?

2008-09-15T08:44:00.000-07:00

These days being a temp is more about supplementing income, gaining experience and educating yourself on different industries or as a way to create a flexible work schedule. While some individuals do turn to temp work after a layoff or in between full-time work, many New Yorkers find temp work as a great alternative to earning money while they pursue their art. Writers, performers and students, for example, are finding temp work as a solution to their busy and often unpredictable schedules. But how do you know where to go? If you Google "temp work nyc" you receive unrelated results or websites that list hundreds of temp agencies in the New York area. If you look in the Yellow Pages, you find the same long listings. So, why choose TempTrends?

TempTrends New York is a boutique temporary administrative and event staffing company. From the moment you walk through our doors, you feel welcome...in fact, our offices do look more like a loft apartment, than your typical office. Instead of a cubicle you will find antique chairs, vintage furniture and chandeliers. After you complete our application (on a very trendy, hand-made clipboard!), you will sit down with 1-2 recruiters to talk about your work experience, expectations, availability and interests. We truly get to know our associates and why they are interested in temp work. Think Erin Brockovich. Our associates are never called "temps" -- they are individuals who have specific interests, dreams and aspirations and we are here to help our associates reach them.

Although we meet interested candidates by appointment only, and sometimes there is a high-demand for interviews, we do our best to meet with you as early as possible. Coming in is worth the wait! New associates never leave empty handed - we give away a variety of goodies -- sometimes we have free Yoga passes and complimentary week passes to Equinox Fitness, mini subway maps, water bottles, umbrellas or hot chocolate - there is always something :o).
