Temp Tips

Great Tips When Temping………

  1. Make sure you know where you are going (MapQuest directions are great), carry a city map in your car, and a KAMPS Staffing Manager’s business card which has the KAMPS phone number in case you get lost or have any questions.
  2. Arrive early to your assignment which always makes a great impression.
  3. Be courteous and friendly.
  4. Dress appropriately and show your professionalism --ask your KAMPS staffing manager if there is a specific dress code
  5. Know the details of your assignment and ask questions of your assigned supervisor if you do not understand your responsibilities. 
  6. Remember—many “Temp” assignments are footholds into a “Permanent” position and they are trying you out--looking at your proficiency.
  7. It’s very important to complete your assignment and adhere to the assigned hours and be flexible if possible.
  8. Cell phones should be turned off and used only on break or lunch.  Use KAMPS as your emergency phone number--(865) 531-2766.  If an emergency occurs while on assignment KAMPS will know how to notify you. 
  9. Double-check your work and check with your supervisor if you run out of things to do.
  10. Keep your work confidential to adhere to privacy rules for Medical Records.
  11. Work computers, internet, email and fax machines should not be used for personal use.  Do not change computer passwords.
  12. Because you get paid weekly be sure you have a KAMPS time sheet to fax back to KAMPS (Fax # 531-9041).  Be sure your assigned supervisor signs it at the completion of your weekly assignment and always give a copy of your time sheet to your client contact.
