Don't do it.

So then which would you recommend?

Dont do it

Stay away from staffing agencies when it comes to temporary gigs. They mark up the hourly rate they charge the agency. You get paid 32, but I'm paying 75... You're better off cold emailing the agency recruiter or resource manager your book so they can have for future reference.

There's still a mark up but at least there's transparency around your salary. So they're fine for full time.
