New temp gig - previous employer wanted me back! Update reply #1
0

---------------------------------------------------------
After being unemployed for one very scary week, I'm working
again... at a housing nonprofit I previously temped at for six
months! I'm replacing someone who just quit this past
Wednesday. Without going into too much detail, the job's
considered a critical part of the agency's "asset management"
work--so they wanted "someone good." When they found out I was
available, they specifically asked for... ME!
This housing organization was my first choice for a next
assignment because: 1) they pay well; 2) they treat their
employees well; 3) three good friends of mine happen to live in
properties owned by the organization, so I've seen firsthand the
good work they do in the community! And it feels really good to
know I was their first choice for this assignment too.

Congratulations! Could this turn into a permanent job? Would you
want it to?

They have a history of hiring temps on as permanent employees,
so yes, it could! The guy who trained me for my first
assignment there ended up being brought on permanently after 8-9
months as a temp.
And yes, I would love it if they brought me on permanently! The
pay and benefits are good, and the agency culture is in line
with what I'd be looking for: someplace where people build each
other up and respect each other, and where hard work is much
appreciated.

and also for being their first choice! That always feels so
good.

I remember a few posts about your situation, so this is an
exciting update! You are going to knock their socks off (again!)

And another update: The temp assignment was originally going to
last through the end of October (they thought), but it's just
been extended a third time, through the end of January!
I won't be applying for this job permanently, since the perm
role really requires driving and I don't have a license--but I
have a couple of promising leads from other department heads at
the agency for jobs that don't require driving, and both the
temp agency and my current assignment supervisor have encouraged
me to apply if something comes up!

That's great news, and fingers crossed for finding another
(permanent) role that doesn't require you to drive.
