After almost 12 years with the same company, corporate attorney Jim McElyea was "downsized." "I became a full-time job seeker, at the same time set-ting up my own practice. I also decided I would accept temporary assignments that could lead to full-time positions," Jim explained. The Wallace Law Registry was able to find him an assignment immediately. "I sensed a feeling of real loyalty and allegiance from the staff at Wallace, like they really cared if they found me an assignment or not," Jim explained. "I've been on this same assignment for nearly a year now. I know when this assignment is over, the Wallace staff will find me another great opportunity. In the meantime, I'm enjoying the flexible hours that this assignment provides. I structure my own schedule, and I build in time to do the things that I enjoy, such as working at my private practice." - Jim McElyea

Cande Cinader hopes her Kelly assignments will help her find a full-time job where she can put her accounting degree to use. "After spending 10 years working as a secretary to a high school principal, I decided that what I really wanted was to get into the corporate work world," said Cande. "That's why I became a Kelly employee." As a Kelly employee, Cande has the opportunity to work in a variety of corporate settings. "My assignments allow me to work in different functional areas of companies. Eventually, I'm hoping that one of these assignments will turn into a full-time position that allows me to use my degree." - Cande Cinader

Keeping challenged and stimulated is what brought Debbie Trelewicz to Kelly Scientific Resources. "I moved to the Raleigh area because of the concentration of technology companies," said Debbie. Once she moved, though, Debbie had trouble finding jobs that really challenged her professionally. She holds degrees in medical technology and marine biology, and is always seeking to acquire new skills and knowledge. "The jobs I found would initially teach me a new skill, but then there just wasn't enough work to keep me really busy or challenged," Debbie explained. "Then I applied for this assignment through Kelly Scientific Resources, and it has been terrific. Not only am I learning new skills, but I'm busy, challenged and stimulated. This is exactly what I was hoping to find." - Debbie Trelewicz
