Looking for Extra Pay Before the Holidays? Let Arbor Help!

Earning extra money before and during the holidays can be a great way to alleviate financial stress and make the most of the season. One effective way to do this is by working with a staffing agency like Arbor Associates. We can connect job seekers with temporary job opportunities in a variety of areas. Here’s how you can maximize your holiday earnings with the help of a staffing agency like Arbor, and some other benefits that you may not have considered!

Diverse Job Opportunities

Staffing agencies have a wide range of job openings, making it easier to find a role that suits your skills and availability. During the holiday season, businesses in retail, health care, hospitality, and customer service often require extra help, and staffing agencies can match you with open positions. Most agencies specialize in certain industries, like Arbor, which caters mainly to health care, medical, and education.

Flexibility

One of the primary advantages of working with a staffing agency is the flexibility it can offer. You can choose the hours and days that work best for you, allowing you to balance your work commitments with holiday festivities and family events.

Quick Placement

Staffing agencies streamline the hiring process. Once you’ve completed the necessary paperwork, background checks, and interviews, they can place you in a job quickly, ensuring you start earning money without unnecessary delays. Some agencies let you schedule your own shifts too, meaning that once you’re approved, you won’t have to wait around for someone else to pick your shifts.

Networking Opportunities

Working with a staffing agency introduces you to various employers and colleagues. Building relationships during your holiday work can lead to long-term connections and even future job opportunities. If you do a good job, and help out in a pinch, you’ll make a great impression with both the client and with the agency.

Gain Experience

Temporary holiday work can also provide you with valuable experience in different fields, which could enhance your resume. This is especially beneficial for students who may be out of school on break, and for those looking to change careers.

Overtime and Bonuses

During the holidays, many employers offer incentives such as overtime pay and bonuses. Staffing agencies can help you find positions where these additional earnings are possible, maximizing your ability to earn.

Manage Holiday Expenses

The extra income you earn through a staffing agency can help you cover holiday-related expenses like gifts, travel, and entertaining guests; reducing the financial stress common at this time of year.

Safety Net

If you’re worried about job security during the holiday season, working with a staffing agency can provide a safety net. Temporary positions often have less job security however, they can help bridge the gap while you search for a more permanent job, or help you get your foot in the door at a target workplace.

Build Your Skills

Working in different environments and roles can enhance your adaptability, problem-solving, and communication skills. These soft skills can be valuable assets in your long-term career development.
