The Jobs Sweepstakes
- Share via
How desperate are businesses for workers? The temporary services agency Snelling Personnel Services is holding a sweepstakes for temps that refer new job candidates to the agency. Each referral earns one entry in the contest. Prizes include a new Mazda Miata and Dodge truck, free groceries for a year, $100 gift certificates, and prepaid phone cards. “The more qualified applicants they refer, the more chances they have to win,” says Madeline Tighe, manager of Snelling’s Costa Mesa office.
Maybe the agency should offer a permanent job as one of the prizes.
