Management Phones Retirement Temping 
Laughing all the Way to Work
JUNE 7, 2008
I temped here and there for a year. Finally, I got a job interview through the temp agency for a one-year contract. I interviewed first with the HR manager and did well. I finally got a phone call to say they wanted to hire me and could I start in a few weeks? It was long hours and no thanks.

It began several years ago when I started working for Mr. H as a temp. Later I was recruited by Mr. W – he made it clear that my first priority was to create a highly functioning admin team and to assist him with his management team. At any given moment we are asked and expected to be: Calendar Managers. Facility Managers.

Initially, I did receive a few responses, asking me to provide video-pre-screens [not my favorite thing to do, I'm discovering] or to participate in phone pre-screens, which I giddily did, with zero results. I didn't love kow-towing to the age haters, but I also need to work, and let's face it, I am nowhere near ready to retire!

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.

In London, I met my husband-to-be (now ex) and I ended up retiring and moving to the Caribbean for 5 years. I worked and temped at various places in general administrator/secretarial roles until I found a job where I really felt I could make a difference. I got married, moved countries (with a cat) and had a baby in 9 months!
