I've never temped, but I worked with several temps at Touchstone Television (now ABC Studios) that were hired full time. Last week, I asked readers for recommendations and received listings for Friedman Agency and Co-Op Temp Services. I found additional listings on The Hollywood Temp Diaries (left sidebar) and Hollywood Connect.
To recommend an agency or share your temping experience, please email me or leave a comment on this post.

Your blog is a great resource. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI recently moved out to LA but my contacts are very scarce. I have reality experience but I would prefer not to do it unless there's nothing else. What temp agency would you suggest for PA work?
ReplyDeleteI don't know if temp agencies staff PA positions on primetime shows. The best way to land a PA job is to apply directly to the show's production office, even if you don't have a connection. More on that here:

Be sure to attention your resume and cover letter to the "Production Coordinator."
That said, I encourage you to contact temp agencies to find out if they staff PA positions. You never know...
