Frequently Asked Questions of a Temporary Worker

Temporary work and its practices and possibilities can make many people wonder. This article compiles the most frequently asked questions related to temporary work.

How does staff leasing work?

Staff leasing is a way to be employed through a staffing service company for various companies and tasks. The employment contract is made with the staffing company, but you work at client companies in fixed-term roles – sometimes project-based, sometimes longer. Our goal is to offer the longest possible employment relationships that lead to the employee being employed on the client company's own payroll.

Gig Work through a Staffing Company?

Gig work is a great option if you have a temporary need for work or do not want to work full-time. The staffing service company looks for the job that best matches your competence and offers it to you. However, you do not have to accept the job if you do not feel it is right for you. 

Why is the client company not announced in the job advertisement?

Recruitment companies usually do not announce the client company so that applicants do not directly apply to and contact the company in question. The task of the recruitment company is to handle the entire recruitment process and remove the challenges associated with the client's recruitment. Recruitment is often outsourced because it is an extremely time-consuming and laborious task. For this reason, the client company also often requests that their name isn’t mentioned in the job advertisement. However, you will always receive information about the client company no later than at the job interview.

What happens if the temporary employment relationship ends?

The staffing company helps you find new job opportunities and supports you in career planning. Even if one employment relationship ends, you often have the opportunity to move seamlessly to the next position, which minimizes the risk of unemployment periods. The recruitment consultants of the staffing company search for and offer you the job that best matches your competence so that you can return to work as quickly as possible. 

Is staff leasing a suitable option for experienced professionals too?

Yes, it is. Staff leasing offers valuable opportunities also for experienced professionals who seek flexibility, new challenges, or want to expand their expertise in different industries. It can also serve as an effective path to permanent employment relationships.

How does staff leasing differ from direct recruitment in terms of career development?

Staff leasing opens doors to more diverse and flexible job opportunities in different industries, which enhances the expansion of your own competence and professional networking. Direct recruitment, on the other hand, typically ties you to one employer and position, perhaps offering stability but limiting opportunities for diverse work experience.

Is staff leasing a safe alternative for building a career?

Yes. Staff leasing guarantees a regular income and the benefits of an employment relationship, even if the assignments are fixed-term. Staff leasing companies also offer active support to their employees, which strengthens both the financial and professional sense of security.

Can I develop my competence through staff leasing?

Absolutely. Through staff leasing, you get to work in varied projects and organizations, which constantly offers new learning opportunities. Many staff leasing companies also arrange targeted training and career coaching that support your professional development.

How does staff leasing help in networking?

By working in several different companies and teams, your professional network naturally expands. This can open up surprising career opportunities as you get to know professionals from different fields and potential future employers.

How do I get personal support for my career development through staff leasing?

Most staff leasing companies offer individual guidance and career coaching, where your goals are mapped out and a concrete path to achieving them is planned. Regular feedback helps you identify your strengths and areas for development even better.
