Job Tips for Success

Your performance on every assignment reflects both your professionalism and WSi’s commitment to quality. These guidelines are designed to help you succeed, make a strong impression, and build lasting relationships with the organizations you serve.

Dress Professionally

Always dress in attire appropriate for the position and work environment. When in doubt, choose professional business attire. Even on designated “casual” days, avoid casual clothing unless you have been specifically invited to dress down by your supervisor.

A professional appearance sets the tone for your first impression and reinforces confidence in your role.

Arrive On Time

Punctuality is essential—especially on your first day. Plan to arrive on time or a few minutes early so you can become familiar with the environment and expectations.

If an unexpected delay occurs, do not contact the client directly. Call WSi immediately so we can communicate on your behalf and maintain professionalism.

Check In Promptly

Upon arrival, report directly to your assigned supervisor and introduce yourself. This helps establish clear communication and shows initiative from the start.

Use Personal Phones Appropriately

Personal phone calls should be kept to a minimum. If a personal call is necessary, make it only during authorized breaks and using an approved phone. Staying focused during work hours demonstrates respect for the assignment and workplace policies.

Be Flexible & Adaptable

Each assignment may bring new systems, workflows, and expectations. Being adaptable and open to change is a key part of success in temporary and per diem roles.

Show Initiative

Approach each assignment with enthusiasm and a willingness to help. If you complete your assigned tasks, do not disengage. Instead, check with your supervisor to see if additional assistance is needed.

Demonstrating initiative often leads to repeat assignments and long-term opportunities.

Ask Questions

If you’re unsure about a task or process, ask. Not knowing is never an excuse for incomplete or incorrect work. If your supervisor will be away, ask who else you can go to for guidance.

Clear communication prevents mistakes and builds trust.

Leave a Positive Impression

Before leaving an assignment, thank your supervisor and let them know you appreciated the opportunity. A simple, professional goodbye can leave a lasting positive impression and open the door to future placements.

Respect Company Policies

Every workplace has its own rules and procedures. Follow all client policies, guidelines, and protocols at all times. When in doubt, ask your supervisor or contact WSi for clarification.
