Some of the pros of hiring temps are that they don’t need a lot of handholding and onboarding as it’s usually just a matter of familiarising them with the project they’ll be working on. They’re also flexible, and can be hired for a particular length of time or until the job is finished. And they’re cheaper than a full-time employee as the client company only has to pay for their wages, not additional benefits.

While some companies only use temp workers for a specific project, it’s common to convert them into permanent staff, especially if their skills are in high demand. Typically, the temporary worker will have an interview with the company’s human resources manager and if they agree to hire them, their temp agency will release them from their employment. This will need to be done before the contract ends or a new one can be initiated.
