Interim pays well, but you are not the only one to have thought about it. All agencies have piles of applications like yours. If you want to find missions, and especially find the best, you will have to put yours. These tips make the point.
1 - Interim interview: take care of your presentation
This may seem obvious, but for some, the basics do not seem to be acquired yet... be shaved, combed, with clean and ironed clothes if necessary.
When the interim agency employee receives a mission request from a company, which candidate will come to mind first? That who marked him.
Indeed, the quality of temporary recruits will serve the image of the interim agency: it has every interest to offer irreproachable and well dressed interim.
2 - Prepare a complete and clear file
By searching the database of potential candidates, the agency will have to be able to easily find you: it will therefore be necessary for your application to come out quickly and clearly from the list.
The CV is a key piece of your file, but also include:
* Letters of reference and supporting documents: this is what will differentiate you from other candidates;
* a photocopy of your identity card or passport;
Good to know: if you give a computer file, give a correct name to your files and put a title to your resume to optimize your reference in the database of the agency!
You will give the image of someone who wishes to facilitate the work of the interim agency. This connection can therefore be more easily returned to you than if you wait until you are asked.
3 - Engage the contact
Do not just file your documents:
* initiate the contact with your interlocutor;
* submit your candidacy;
* give him your CV.
Good to know: if you see that you arrive at the wrong time, prefer to go back later to make contact rather than leave your CV on the corner of a desk. This is the best way to be forgotten!
If you are offered a coffee, it is a good sign: take advantage of it to set up a relationship between the agency and you. Once again, which candidate will come first to the mind of the staff, when a company will ask for a mission? The one we remember the most.
4 - Target the right agencies to get your interim mission
Take the time to identify which agencies are specialized in your profession. Make a list and introduce yourself to many. At worst, you will have too many mission requests and will have to refuse.
5 - Relaunch with skill
Between restart and insist, there is a limit not to cross: be the one who shows his motivation, do not be the one who disturbs.
Relaunching can simply involve getting into an off-duty interim agency with a big smile, saying that one has come for a coffee. To use sparingly, this method is reserved for less shy.
