In a 2014 survey by American Staffing Association, nearly 90% of temporary and contract employees said that staffing work made them more employable.

“I applied for a two week temporary position that began as part time. I was able to learn new skills within the field while continuing my education and was offered a full time position with the organization that has lead to a 10 year career with the same company. Walking through the doors of Trillium Staffing back in May of 2005 was one of the best choices I have ever made.” states Jen H.
