I've just started work through a Temp Agency, Adecco. I been 3 days into my training and it is going well. The assignment is temp to hire. I was in the process to be hired by a different company but they did not respond for over a month. Now they called me and I still want to work for them. How can I leave the temp agency, and the assignment while still being on good terms? I'm not sure if I have to finish an assignment first. I am not the type to leave jobs right away but I really wanted this other job that wants to hire me now. Help!

I think you are okay.
Explain the problem to your Temp Agency. It is traditional to give 2 weeks notice before leaving, but the rules can be different in the world of Temp Agencies.
Since you are still in training you haven't been hired by the new company. The Temp Agency will have to replace you, but that is nothing new to them.
If you can wait a week before starting your new job that would be good, but I think the chances are 80% that you will be able to leave without a problem.
I received a temp to perm assignment from a temp agency and went through a training period. However, before the job started I was offered a higher paying job. I called the temp agency and explained the problem and they basically said, goodbye and good luck. We are sorry to lose you, but we understand. I think you will get the same response.
Talk with the Temp Agency before you do anything, it is the responsibility of the Temp Agency to handle the company that is their client. You should never have to talk with them.

Yes, they will. People get fired all the time and temp agencies are prepared for that. The likelihood of finding said assignment also depends on why you were fired.

Speak to your superior and explain why you want to leave. You are perfectly within your rights and any decent employer would understand someone moving to a job they feel is better for them. It's great that your conscientious but you are allowed to move on, it's your life!

Don't worry about it, get on with your life.
