A: We place thousands of temporary administrative, financial, project and clerical staff with our clients throughout the GTA and the province. Below is a table of some of more popular placements from 2012:

[/fusion_toggle]

[fusion_toggle title=”I want to be considered for assignments, but I don’t see any postings that interest me. Can I just send you my resume?” open=”no”]

We recommend that you apply for the positions we have posted. If you don’t see any postings of interest right now, we recommend you check again soon as our postings are constantly being updated. For positions that our clients look for more often such Administrative Assistant we from time to time will post to ensure we have candidates on hand for our clients.[/fusion_toggle]

[fusion_toggle title=”How long do the placements last?” open=”no”] Each position is unique, and could last from as little as one day to several months. Sometimes we know in advance how long you are needed, and other times it is day by day. Flexibility is an important trait for anyone considering working as a temporary employee.[/fusion_toggle]

[fusion_toggle title=”If I am interested in applying, will I have to come to your office for an interview?” open=”no”] Yes, all qualified candidates will need to come to our Etobicoke office for an interview. We need to meet you in person to get a better feel for your personality, work ethic, skills, and what type of role you are best suited to.[/fusion_toggle]

[fusion_toggle title=”Can I come in to apply and interview on the spot?” open=”no”] Unfortunately we do not accept walk-in interviews; please submit your resume by email to the appropriate positions posted online.[/fusion_toggle]

[fusion_toggle title=”Do I have to pay you any fees to apply?” open=”no”]
Absolutely not. In fact, we will never ask you to pay fees even if you are employed through us. Our clients pay us for your work, and we then pay you. In most cases it is illegal for agencies in Canada to charge the applicant fees. [/fusion_toggle]

[fusion_toggle title=”I sent my resume and I haven’t heard back from you. Why not?” open=”no”] If you submitted your resume and have not received an auto-reply, your resume likely did not make it to us. If you received an auto-reply but we haven’t contacted you personally, it usually means that we are either in the process of reviewing your resume or that you have not been shortlisted for that position. When a position becomes available, short listed applicants will be contacted via telephone. Due to the volume of resumes we receive this processes can take anywhere from two to four weeks[/fusion_toggle]

[fusion_toggle title=”Why is a skills test required?” open=”no”] For certain positions, skill testing is a prerequisite to employment. We test job-essential skills to determine your level of expertise. For example, if a client has indicated to us that they are looking for a candidate with an advanced level of knowledge of MS-Excel, we need to test your Excel skills to make sure you are able to handle the demands of the job. Skill testing is not designed to pass or fail you; rather it is intended to determine whether your skills in a particular area fall into the “basic”, “intermediate”, or “advanced” category.[/fusion_toggle]

[fusion_toggle title=”How long will my interview last?” open=”no”] Your interview will last anywhere from an hour to an hour and a half, depending on whether skill testing is required and what tests you need to complete.[/fusion_toggle]

[fusion_toggle title=”I am in a full-time permanent position and looking to leave. Can I send an application and be considered for assignments?” open=”no”] Unfortunately, temporary employment with HR Associates may not be the right option for you in this case. We often have no more than a few hours’ notice of an upcoming position. Therefore, you wouldn’t have enough time to give your current employer two weeks’ notice of your resignation. If you have already informed your employer that you are leaving, we can consider you for assignments commencing any time after your current position ends.[/fusion_toggle]

[fusion_toggle title=”Does HR Associates hire for general labour positions?” open=”no”] No. HR Associates staffs only administrative and clerical, as well as senior professional positions. We also do not provide specialized positions such as: lawyers, teachers, doctors, dental hygienists/assistants, property managers, or drivers.[/fusion_toggle]
