Five reasons to temp with PN Personnel

Posted On April 28, 2022 

If you are currently out of work, and looking for work, this blog is for you. Let us explain how temporary work can be part of your employment solution, whilst supporting your future career journey.

As recruitment professionals, we know the benefits temping can bring. We see it in action every day. If you haven’t worked as a temp before, this may be something you haven’t ever considered…until now.

1.   We have jobs!
Lots of jobs ranging from skilled to unskilled. All we ask of you is your ability to commit to your temporary assignment, a willingness to work and the ability to learn something new. From PA’s to pick packers, our range of temporary roles is vast. 

Most temporary roles are listed on our website, but sometimes we do receive a job we need to fill extremely quickly, so we do turn to our existing pool of available job seekers. To ensure you are considered for all opportunities it is worth registering with us so you can be considered for all job opportunities.


2.   Temporary work is the ideal stop-gap. 
Don’t sit around waiting for the right permanent opportunity. By working in a temporary job, it means you have the option to be selective in your permanent choice.  PN Personnel are extremely well connected throughout the Manawatu and can advise on temporary work to fit in with your overall career aspirations. We’ve placed many a temp based on their ability and fit with an employer, working in a role in which is not their chosen career, but which has given them the opportunity to demonstrate their abilities to go on to future opportunities within the organisation.


3.   This leads us to getting your foot in the door. 
As explained above, with our knowledge of our Manawatu businesses, we can place you in a temporary assignment in which we feel the working environment can be of benefit to you in the long-term. This may include:

  • providing you with new skills to add to your CV
  • the chance of progression within the company
  • a supportive working environment to build your confidence
  • a team culture which aligns to your own motivations

It is very common for our temps to secure permanent employment through their temporary roles.


4.   We support you in your role

On the job visits, regular calls and checks by us will ensure the temporary assignment is as we have described it to you. This communication is two-way with yourself and us, we also follow up with our Client to ensure all is running smoothly in your temporary assignment.


5.   Join our welcoming team!

We consider you part of our PN Personnel team:

  • We celebrate successes
  • We provide small treats throughout the year in recognition of your work
  • If your role goes permanent, we celebrate that too!
