It is true that many companies have been unable to withstand the recent recession and that many people have found themselves out of a job or made redundant.
 It is also true that there may be fewer vacancies out there, but there is a need to be realistic as well- there are still jobs out there.
Admittedly there may be more candidates and more people may be competing for fewer and fewer jobs, but there are still jobs out there and in some ways, sadly, temporary jobs are actually increasing in number.
 Mainly this is because organisations are more reluctant to take on permanent members of staff when they are not sure when things are going to pick up.
 They may feel cautious about taking on permanent members of staff, but they still have a need for duties to be done, so what do they do? They ask for temporary members of staff, rather than permanent people.
 Great if you are looking for a temping job, but perhaps less good if you are looking for a permanent position.
There are lots of temping agencies also known as temporary agencies that can help you.
 They are like any other recruitment agency, but they specialise in assisting people who are specifically looking for temporary as opposed to permanent positions.
So check over your CV and check that it is right up to date.
 Ensure that you expand your horizons and consider as many different types of jobs as you can and from there you will actually find that employment will be quite easy to secure and you should get a temping job without any difficulty at all! It may not be as immediate as it would have been say a couple of years ago, but it will happen!
