Staffing agency-Really need everyones opinion!

[NARCAN]

:uhoh3:Hi everyone,

hope everyone is doing well! specially with everything going on! i really need your input!!! i am a Lpn from florida and i have been looking for a job for 2 weeks now. during these 2 weeks i applied for to 2 different staffing agencies. now i had applied to these agencies because so far either there were no jobs, or if there were any the hours did not coordinated with my kids schedules (at least morning time) so i felt that staffing agency was more flexible. now 2 weeks i had no call from the agencies. i called almost every other day to check for work and to make sure they didnt forget about me. but it so happens that tomorrow i have an interview with a hospital near my home. dont know $, or exact duties yet...now as i just got off the phone with the hospital (interview) one of the staffing agency called me and left me a message for a Lpn position. dont know where, $, or duties. .......

i am very interested in the hospital job, but dont know yet what im in for....and i dont want to call the agency and say to them i cant take the job .... what im trying to say is i really want to keep the agency in my good side just incase the hospital job doesnt work! how can i post pone the agency job without jepardizing it? at least not to have the agency on my bad side just incase i need them? any recommendations????

Did the agency message indicate that you are to start the agency job the same day as your interview? Go to your interview. Then contact the agency afterward and find out the details of what they have for you. If you aren't able to take the position, then say, "I'm sorry but I can't accept that position at this time." Remember that the agency is only offering you temp work, your interview is for a permanent job, so that should take precedence. You can always work for the agency on a per diem basis after you have secured your full time job. Good luck.
