Staff Support gives you a chance to strengthen your skills and refine your resume, which is
really the best way to get hired in any job - it definitely worked for me. I got to temporarily
"try out" different areas of the City - my first assignment was with the Law Branch as a
receptionist, and my second was in Recruitment.
