Temp registration
The registration process consists of completing a registration form, testing your copy typing and one MS package followed by a one to one interview. The entire registration process can take 45 minutes to 1 hour. You will need to bring your passport, full contact details of two previous employers, ideally your immediate boss, that we can contact immediately (within 1-5 business days) to request a reference. You can do the tests when you arrive or you can do them online in advance provided you have an email address and the time to spare. Please confirm the email address we should use to send you the tests. Please also be aware even if you have tested online we usually test typing speed when you come to the office- this is to see how well you adapt to the slightly different keyboard.
Accepting an Assignment
Once you have been registered, tested and referenced we will do our best to find you work - when we offer you a booking we will give you all the information you will need including a full description of what you will be asked to do, the address, how to get there, who to ask for, how long the assignment will be, the hours of work, advice on the dress code and of course how much you will be paid.
