I am doing temporary work and I am trying to set-up interviews with other companies but I am afraid that the company I am working with will find someone else and I need the job. I really need advice on what to do and how I can go on these interviews. Should I tell the company that I am going on the interviews and risk getting fired, also I know that they are worried because their last temp left the assignment early. What should I do?

I used to be a temp. The best way I found was to let the company know that I was going on an interview after I started scheduling them. I would try to set it up during my lunch, which only works if you have an hour for lunch, or early in the morning so I wouldn't be too late to work.
If you like the company you work for express to them that you would like to become permanent if they have any openings. You need to watch out for yourself.

I'm afraid that Dan H is right ... the employers will care more about the work getting done than about who does it. If it is a temporary job then they should know you will be looking for another job, either to take after this one is completed or a permanent job ... this is reality.
I would be open with them ... if you like the job and the people it maybe that they are keen for you to stay on after this assignment is completed. Are they honest people if so they will appreciate your honestly

Always set up interviews around your work schedule. Do not jeopardize your current job looking for another. See if you can work through lunch and leave early for an appointment. You don't need to tell your current employer, just because you are looking does not mean you will find a job, so don't burn your bridges.
Good luck

My mothers and fathers owned a preschool for over 10 years and they regarded for outgoing persons that dressed very actually and weren't about highend vogue. pay interest to "i hate dr. phil's" reaction. She's maximum ideal in stating to positioned on apartments and no low shrink tops. gown in slacks, collared blouse and gentle shoes. and really carry resources and thoughts you ought to tutor those little ones. As for questions, be prepared to respond to questions like: a million. How lengthy have you ever been education? 2. What do you get excitement from about education? 3. have you ever effectively potty-experienced children? 4. How would you take care of an indignant figure? 5. How would you take care of two little ones combating? 6. If someone except the figure got here to p.c.. up a baby what would you do? those are purely some. i am going to respond to them for you. a million. that is your opinion. i'm efficient you could answer that truly 2. same with this one. 3. lower back, same. 4. coping with an indignant figure is tricky provided that you've not in any respect finished so. If the director is on the marketplace, continually tell the figure that they can communicate with them. not in any respect get entangled, because it isn't any longer your position, and it truly is perfect dealt with through higher administration. 5. Separate both and communicate to them personally. you in all likelihood recognize the respond to this as well. 6. If someone except the figure comes, the school in additional than a number of circumstances has a itemizing of names the mothers and fathers go away in case of an emergency. First contact the director. in the experience that they are no longer there, then call the figure to verify pickup. i fairly wish this helped. :) And solid success!!

I know you need the job, and it's risky--but your current employer couldn't care less about you. Otherwise, you wouldn't be a temporary employee. They're going to let you go when your time is up anyway, so get a jump start on something better and permanent.

I was in the same boat. Current bad job - better possible future job.
One thing to my credit - I never get sick or skip out of work unnecessarily - so I was covert and came up with every possible situation to think of.
Come up with other things than being sick or car doesn't start.
I claimed my washing machine flooded at home and I was waiting for the plumber, for example...
