Has anyone ever hired a carpet cleaning tech through a temp agency? If so, what are some of the pros and cons?
thanks!
thanks!
The pros are that you can get a warm body right away. The cons are that warm body doesn't have a clue how to clean carpets.Has anyone ever hired a carpet cleaning tech through a temp agency? If so, what are some of the pros and cons?

I'm not near the point where I'm ready to hire a tech. But you bet it won't be through a temp agency for the exact reasons you describe. Taking the time to vet someone out who is competent and cares about the work they do seems critical. We don't build a brand and reputation to piss it away on goofball temps. Take the time to advertise, interview, train, and then pay worthy people very well to keep them around. Our business is our livelihood, our reputation is everything.The pros are that you can get a warm body right away. The cons are that warm body doesn't have a clue how to clean carpets.
If they even show up at all. We have tried over the years for in-plant work and most either don't show up or if they do show up they disappear at lunch time.The cons are that warm body doesn't have a clue how to clean carpets.
Or Kingdom Hall..Have you tried the local beauty school?
Can't fault you for thinking about it. I'd like to say that's all I did, but no, I have made that mistake more than once.Thanks all for the input! It was just one of those bright ideas, that maybe wasn't too bright.![]()
