Finding a job after college can be a stressful ordeal for some, but with the right team in your corner, it can be a fairly easy process.

Sarah Fossett was a college student with a variety of experience under her belt. She’d worked as a hostess, a tutor and as an administrative assistant.

After graduating, she relocated from South Carolina to Oregon and needed help finding a job.

She turned to TERRA Staffing Group, a top temp agency in Portland.

Sarah had worked with TERRA’s Portland branch the previous summer, while on a break from school.

That year, she had been placed in a bakery assistant role. She worked there the entire summer, until it was time to go back to school.

Jennifer Bailey, Recruiter, shared, “Sarah was friendly, outgoing and flexible. I knew she would be a great culture fit and that she would get along great with the rest of the team there.”

The client loved having Sarah on their team.

So much, in fact, that when they heard that Sarah was back in town and done with college, they simply offered her a full-time position at their bakery!

According to Jennifer, “She is hardworking and enthusiastic. She is not afraid of a challenge and is flexible with their needs.”

Regarding her experience with TERRA, Sarah said, “I was looking for a job that would allow me to learn new skills and give me room to grow.”

She continued, “TERRA helped me find what I was looking for.  I like the work that I am doing, but more importantly, I really enjoy the people I work with. My coworkers have made my bad days bearable and my good days great!”

If you are struggling to find a job after college, Sarah had this advice to share:

“I know that searching for a new job can be really frustrating. But keep your chin up and keep looking. You will find something you love sooner or later.

And if you need help, I would absolutely recommend TERRA to family and friends looking for work. They make the job searching process easy, and they are great communicators.”
