Hiring Temporary Staff

When using temporary staff, do not feel that you are compelled to hire them just because they’ve worked for you for ninety days or more. In fact, examine the success of a temp at thirty days. If you are not certain that he will make a superior employee, replace him with another temp. Your supervisors tend to “settle” for “good enough” because the temp comes to work every day and does the job. The supervisor will not have to constantly train new temps and this is appreciated. It is not, however, the way to obtain a superior staff. I tell supervisors they may hire the top five percent of their temporary staff members – only the very best.
