Text about a recriotmetn agency: this comes from a role play:

Vous êtes un candidat premium, très sollicité par le marché, vous etes fidèle à une ETT, et habitué à l’intérim, vous êtes très exigeant sur vos missions.

Temporary Placement Agency

I don't believe there is an equivalent acronym but this a common term for a recruitment agency for temp workers.
