Temping in London/Slough/Reading
Aug. 29th, 2008 02:54 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
I am currently waiting (and will possibly be waiting for some months) for the various bits of paperwork associated with new!shiny!job to be completed. Thesis, on the other hand, is looking quite hopeful: I'm optimistic about getting a final draft to my supervisor by the end of next week and hopefully submitting shortly thereafter.
So I'm about to have an excess of free time and a shortage of money, so the natural solution seems to be temping. Has anyone got any recommendations for temp agencies in London/Slough/Reading? Or questions I should think about before applying to them? Something that took advantage of a scientific background would clearly be ideal, but to be honest I'm just looking for something marginally better paid than pulling pints at Wetherspoons!

I know nothing of temping agencies.
