Should I Mention that I was Hired On


Hello to all,

I worked for a company for four years, but the first year was through a temporary assignment, which after one year I was hired on full time.

Should I mention that, or should I just say I worked for that company for four years?

Furthermore, does it look good that I was hired on?  Or does it look better that someone just gets the job outright?

Thanks for all for any advice!

Hi Ev,

I think it looks better that you were hired after your temporary assignment. You can say that you were offered a permanent position after your temp assignment, and emphasize the skills and accomplishments that led to the hire.

Thank you much for the response.  I needed more of an expert opinion on that one.

Best regards,
