I was working at a bank and within a year of sitting at a desk I knew it wasn't for me. During university I had worked my way through school as a brand ambassador and I realized I missed the excitement and surprisingly the erratic work hours.
I decided four years must be enough experience to try to go at it on my own. I started cold calling companies on my lunch break and within a week lined up five companies who needed staff for upcoming events. I placed an ad on indeed for event staff and set up auditions for the candidates who applied.
I screened staff by looking through resumes and with telephone interviews and photo submissions and let the clients make the final decision ensuring they clicked with their event staff. I was able to keep going with my formula and now have a substantial client base with a growing rooster of event staff working as independent contractors.
