What if you were offered different positions at a company you want?

I’ve taken quite a few temporary positions in my career. Some have led to permanent positions. From my experience, there may be several options:

if the agency temp job is a contract position (meaning you are an employee of the agency working on contract to the company), the company may have a policy of not directly hiring agency contract employees until the contract is finished. If this is the case, and they are still interested in having you fill the HR slot, they may put you there while you are still a contract worker, and hire you directly at the end of the 3 months.

If it is a direct hire, and the HR manager knows about the situation, it would be more of an internal transfer than quitting one job for another. No one in management should see that as a bad move.

Congratulations and best of luck.

As long as you make it clear up front that you have also applied for the HR job, I don’t see it as a problem. Unless your job agency takes a cut of both jobs if you start at the Office clerk position and then move into HR.

Thanks!! I didn’t wanna hurt chances with hr rep if I took a office clerk temp job at the same company! Lol

Read today’s WSJ. Same subject. What do you want to do or do just wanna be stroked?

What is wsj?

The Wall Street Journal. Remember to write the company’s name as Limited Brands and use caps for HR.

@gailcalled…I know. I am not as strict about grammar when I type socially on the net. I honestly could care less about little grammar when speaking to family, friends, and the internet peers as I told you this before lol.

Especially when it’s on my little keyboard in the phone

I was not talking about grammar. But I do understand the difficulties of typing on a mini-keyboard.

You know what I mean though with capitalizing and all

Just be honest. You can ask if the temp job will mean you cannot accept the other job if offered. Overall, I think take what you can get. You have wanted to be there for so long. Once in you can apply for other jobs even if you miss the opportunity for the other one.

I think congratulations are in order! :)

Phew, I feel much more at ease. I am able to take the other job with no hard feelings. I doubt they want me anyways if I’m going for another position if left. Haha but ya not for sure.

I would love to see the main home office. I heard its beautiful. My bf sis said “if you think my building looks good wait til you see the main office”
