Answering Reader Mail: How Long is it Fair to be a Temp for a Job?

Musings of a High-Level Executive Assistant

DECEMBER 18, 2013

The staffing agent asked if I was open to temp to perm, even though the position was for a full time EA, he feels the CEO may need time to see if it is a good fit. I have no idea how long "temp" is considered before they would offer the permanent position. It feels like a bait and switch and there are no guarantees.

EA work is typically admin work - phones, travels, calendars, expense reports, mtgs/luncheons, etc. It also costs a lot to hire someone else because finding the time to find the right person and training them is expensive in energy, manpower, resources, and money. It’s because they trust you. You can just write “Thx!”
