While working with individuals throughout the company, it is important to form lasting relationships based on trust. This is especially important when a temp is trying for a permanent position. By moving away from the image of an outsider, and towards that of a trusted team member, you will be of more value to the company. Building trust will allow you to: Be successful at your current tasks. There will be people willing to help you by providing information, advice, and assistance. Leverage relationships for the future. For example, if you need someone in the legal department to look over a contract right away, you can take advantage of a relationship you've nourished to get this done more quickly than someone else might. Get others on your side. Most likely, before deciding whether or not to offer you a permanent position, managers may ask your fellow workers their opinion of you. The more people you have on your side, the more they can vouch for your personality and work ethic. Becoming a valuable part of the team means being someone who is deeply appreciated and truly important to the success of the company. If you are seen as someone the company needs, you have a much greater chance of landing a permanent spot. This can be done by following the above suggestions and by contributing consistently hard work.
