Temp-to-hire openings around Nashville - what worked for you?

A staffing agency says some roles convert to permanent after 18 weeks. I would rather hear the honest version than the polite one. Hours ramp up in the coming weeks. Is it worth applying to several at once?

I was converted after one season because I showed up every day and volunteered for extra shifts. Managers remember that.

Ask early about permanent openings. Some teams fill them from their seasonal list.
