If you’ve ever wondered what a temp agency does or how it can help you find work, you’re not alone. Temporary staffing is one of the fastest ways to connect with employers who are hiring now. A good temp agency doesn’t just find you “any” job — it matches you with the right fit based on your goals, schedule, and experience.
What Is a Temp Agency?
A temp agency connects people looking for work with companies that need help quickly. Employers partner with staffing firms like Verstela to fill short-term, long-term, or temp-to-hire roles. That means when you apply with us, you gain access to openings that aren’t always listed publicly — and to a team that knows which companies are hiring in your area.
How Does a Temp Agency Work?
When you apply with a temp agency, you fill out one application and meet with a recruiter who gets to know you — your background, preferences, and skills. From there, they match you to available positions that fit.
Your recruiter handles communication with the employer, schedules interviews, and helps you through onboarding. The best part? You’re paid by the agency, but you work directly with the company — so you can start earning fast without the stress of a long job hunt.
Why Do People Use Temp Agencies?
Job seekers use temp agencies for flexibility, speed, and opportunity. Some people want a short-term role while between jobs; others want a chance to get a foot in the door with a great company. Employers often turn short-term jobs into full-time positions when they find reliable workers — so a “temporary” assignment can quickly lead to something lasting.
Do You Have to Pay to Work with a Temp Agency?
No — staffing agencies are paid by the employer, not by you. There’s never a fee for job seekers. Your recruiter’s role is to help you succeed, not to sell you a job.
