Okay, with the economy in the toilet, and my freelance sources drying up, I guess it's time to do some temp work.

Any recommendations for agencies in the SF/Bay Area? The only two I knew of are now out of business (another sign of the great times here).

I do design (web and print) and programming/database work (see simple portfolio at http://www.definingmoment.com), though general office work is what I'm expecting out of this search.

Thanks in advance.

Anyone?

Have you tried craigslist? How about Manpower?

Good luck.

Thanks for the suggestions. Craiglist is where a great deal of past resumes have routed through. It's a great site. Manpower isn't listing a SF location, which surprised me.

For office jobs, there's Premier Staffing (www.pstaffing.com) and Smith Hampton & Devlin (www.shdevlin.com), both in the SF financial district. I recommend Premier Staffing - though I wasn't able to get any long term jobs (aka, more than a week, and more often at most only a couple days), I did get jobs on a fairly consistent basis, their base pay is decent (I think either $13 or $15/hr), and they did really look out for me and gave me a heads up on interviews for permanent positions I might be interested in. I didn't have much luck with Smith Hampton, but I only used them for a little over a month.
