Temp gigs can be a great way to get your foot in the door AND more importantly, they show the agency Temp Placement Person that your are very willing to work and at almost any job.
That said, the agency person will know to call you more often. If you're too picky - any agency will drop you like a hot potato! I still have an agency person I helped often 2 years ago...esp.on Monday mornings when no one would do reception and/or admin work for her company. This lady calls me every 5 to 7 months asking me if I'm still employed (I am luckily) and she calls "because something perfect for me has become available" at her staffing place.
I currently have a job --- but yes, I DO realize that it's dreadful out there, so I'm going to be careful while looking elsewhere for a better job.
