Summer investment management as a contractor?
I recently started a job at a large insurance company doing fixed income in their investment division. The problem is I realized I was a contract hire and I am actually employed by a 3rd party talent sourcing agency, which has “temporarily assigned” me to my current company. The contract is for the 3 months until school starts and I am working full-time for the insurance company.
I just want to ask if anyone has had a similar experience and can I just write on my resume that it’s an internship at this company?
Thx!

Hi guys, I recently started a job at a large insurance company doing fixed income in their investment division. The problem is I realized I was a contract hire and I am actually employed by a 3rd party talent sourcing agency, which has “temporarily assigned” me to my current company. The contract is for the 3 months until school starts and I am working full-time for the insurance company.

I wouldn't worry too much about it, probably to has to do with benefits and Taxes.
Have had this happen (FT job, not internship though).
For your resume, yes. You can say you had an internship at the company you're working with.
For a background check (once you get a FT offer down the line), you need to disclose that you were with a staffing agency, otherwise it'll come back as a red flag.
Do you have to mention that you were a contractor (for a FT role) during the interview process? Or is it okay to wait until you get the offer then disclose it?
