[Survey of 1,005 Temporary Staff] Choosing a Staffing Agency: Realizing the Importance of Staff Support After Starting Work

cielo azul Inc. (Headquarters: Fukuoka City, Fukuoka Prefecture, Representative Director: Satoshi Oizumi) conducted a survey on "The Reality of Choosing a Staffing Agency and the Gap Before and After Employment" targeting men and women in their 20s to 50s who registered with a staffing agency and actually started working within the last two years.

With the diversification of work styles, more people are choosing to work as "temporary staff" to match their lifestyles and goals. On the other hand, while it is easy to choose a job that matches your desired conditions, there are also cases where people experience gaps and troubles after starting work, such as "the actual job content differs from the explanation given beforehand" or "the support from the staff was insufficient.".

This survey investigated the points that were considered important before starting work, the differences in points that were felt to be important after starting work, and the actual dissatisfactions and troubles experienced by those who have actually worked through a staffing agency.

"Number of Job Postings" and "Conditions" Were Important Before Starting Work

When asked about "What was important when choosing a staffing agency (before starting work)?", the most common answer was "Number of job postings (options for desired job type/work location) (44.7%)", followed by "Conditions such as hourly wage and transportation allowance (44.5%)", and "Abundance of short-term/one-off jobs (25.4%)".

The high percentages for "number of job postings" and "conditions" clearly indicate a desire to choose a job that suits them with better benefits. Furthermore, the continued demand for "short-term/one-off jobs" and "jobs welcoming inexperienced applicants" suggests that some individuals are looking for an environment where they can work comfortably while compensating for their lack of experience.

The Top Deciding Factor Was "Conditions Such as Hourly Wage and Transportation Allowance"

While various factors were considered when choosing a staffing agency, what was the ultimate deciding factor?
