Job hunting question

[redbird]

Is there anything special I should do with my resume, or in the job-hunting process, because the current job is through a temp agency? I've been in the same place for six months now, but if someone calls the personnel department there, they'll probably be told that my employer has never heard of me, because technically I work for Lloyd Staffing, not PCH. (It's possible Andrea would say "Oh, yes, Vicki, I know her", but I can't count on that, and she might not be the one to get that call.)

What I've done is listed the temp agency as employer, citing the client I worked for in the beginning of the description: "Postemps ... Temporary position in the Electronic Publishing Department of a major insurance firm (AXA/Equitable)."

(You might think, what with the economy being in the toilet for some time now already, that we'd be seeing more of this type of resume entry, and be more used to it ...)
