Gage Personnel

Overall, I enjoy my position at Gage Personnel. I have learned so much in my three years with the company. On a typical day, you really have no idea what could happen. Twenty-five applicants could come in and apply, or you could only have two. Every company you work with could call requesting temporary help, or the phones could be silent. You never know what the day will bring your way. I enjoy interacting with all the various personality types we encounter. My co-workers are wonderful and extremely supportive. We work as a team and enjoy the nine hours per day we spend together. My position is challenging simply because there is so much to juggle on a daily basis. I have become a master at handling high-stress situations and multi-tasking. The management of the Gage Personnel is extremely supportive and willing to answer any questions I may have. The only negative would be the fact that it is a small, family-owned company. We are severely under-staffed for the high-volume work load we juggle daily. I am the only recruiter in the office supported only by a part-time administrative assistant and our front desk receptionist. But overall, it has been a wonderful learning experience for which I am extremely grateful. I will forever be a Gage supporter!

A typical day at work for me was a little hectic at times a lot of walking back and fourth around the plant making sure all the temporary employees were in their designated spots and remained on time throughout the night.
I learned how to be patient with people and how to deal with difficult situations at certain times , how to talk to certain people so they understand the job and what has to be done . 
Management was fair enough for the most part i can not complain about it . 
I enjoyed my co-workers very much they made work fun and i enjoyed going for the most part.
the hardest part was probably in the middle of the night when people would start to disappear and i would have to go look for them around the plant or on the security cameras.
I enjoyed the most out of my nights was being able to help work on the line because standing around all night used to get pretty boring . i enjoyed doing the extra work when i could .

A typical day on the job for me is interesting. I would arrive at the site, report to my supervisor, receive the event details, and begin my typical set up duties. I would get together with my team of co-workers, we assign each other jobs so we can get the job done expeditiously and move onto the next task. After set up is complete we would then proceed to get food & drinks prepared. Depending on whether the event is sit down or buffet style would dictate how the food is set up. I truly enjoy working amongst my peers while we come together to accomplish our goals. Although it can be a challenge I appreciate the different personalities and the wonderful encounters I've experienced.

A typical day at work was going to the office and getting are uniform and card and line paper(what line we were going to be on). Then I would go clock in, clean my hands, and go to my line. We would start working right away. I learned how to make the tasks easier for myself so they could get done in a timely manner. Everything is fast paced on a daily basis. The management and coworkers were always there to help and guide you. The hardest part of the job was that some of the tasks included moving things that were sometimes heavy. The most enjoyable part of the job was that I finally got my first job and I was working hard to keep it.

The job assignment has been consistent long-term. Overtime is typically not mandatory. Production can create some lingering physical pain. I have to do stretched in the morning before my shift to reduce the pain that sometimes comes from repetitive motion including arms, hands and back,. The people there are usually nice but everyone has a bad day now and then. The on-site manager get very busy at times and issues must sometimes wait for a day or two for resolution.

Good work environment 
 I learned how to deal with different individuals characteristics.
Good management never really had an issues 
The hardest part was dealing with employees that wouldn't cooperate with the rules of the work place . 
Being my own boss was the best part of the job.

They gave me a position, where the manager didn't train me, left work on the clock and then let me go when I couldn't take calls fast enough within the first week. 

The employees were distracted and very inappropriate and had to desire to help train me. 
I called Gage to let them know and instead they let me go, and split my last check in half due to a payroll error on their end.
Then

I began as a temp for a company and completed my 400 hours (which was 3 months) and finally when gage found me another job after being with the company for 9 months they finally wanted to hire me through their company, but for 9$ an hour. But when i left to go to the other company within 3 months i was hired on.
