Why use a recruitment agency when looking for a job?

If you ever find yourself in a situation, where you’re looking for a job, fortunately, you have several options available. You can start by actively scrolling through ads, address specific employers, network among friends, make yourself visible on social media or you can directly contact a recruitment agency... and problem solved. Why is it a good idea to utilize the services of a recruitment agency? Because we simplify a lot of the matters for you!

Whether you’re a warehouse employee or a manager, why is it a good idea to look for a job using a recruitment agency?  

Recruitment agencies know the labour market perfectly. They have their own network of contacts and are aware of job openings that candidates won’t find in ads. Currently, many people are successful in finding jobs through recruitment agencies. The popularity of recruitment agencies, both globally and locally, is growing year by year. 
Most collaboration between agencies and employers is long-term. In addition, thanks to good mutual relationships, agencies are the first to find out about vacant positions. In some cases, companies don’t even advertise their job offers. They simply assign the vacant positions to recruitment agencies. Therefore, agencies can offer unique job opportunities that candidates would never come across on their own. 

There are obviously many other advantages to cooperating with recruitment agencies. In addition to the above-stated advantages of close cooperation with employers, agencies offer candidates a wide range of positions. 

Based on your CV, a recruiter from an agency evaluates the kind of job and employer that is suitable for you and then recommends a position that you may not even consider applying for. The recruiter may also offer you more positions, giving you an opportunity to compare more employers. Recruiters may even talk you out of applying for a specific job because he knows there’s a low probability of you succeeding. 

We don’t only help you find work!

Another huge advantage is that the recruiter will advise you on how to write a professional CV and cover letter, will provide you with a guide on how to succeed at an interview and most importantly, he will give you all the details about the job description, not only emphasizing the pros but also warning you of the potential risks of working for that specific employer. He will tell you what to expect from the interview, what your potential boss is like and give you lots of information that you will never find in the job ad. 

And that’s not all. The recruiter from the agency is your partner when it comes to looking for a new job. He will practically guide on along the whole way to your dream job. He willingly schedules an interview with the employer and if it turns out you can’t make it, he’ll re-schedule it for you. If you’re running late to your interview, the recruiter will inform your boss. If you can’t find the address of your interview, the recruiter will also help you out with that. 

You don’t have to deal with uncomfortable matters regarding wages and salaries

Does your stomach start churning when you have to say how much money you want? Don’t worry about it. Your recruiter is here to help you because he’s the one who will negotiate this unpleasant agenda for you. In most cases, the agency will also inform you about the results of the interview process. If the result is in your favour, your recruiter will happily congratulate you and share in your enthusiasm. However, what the recruiter finds unpleasant is when he has to call you and tell you that you were not successful in the interview process. He is also the one, who provides you with feedback from the company. He’s the one to tell you the reason you were not successful in the interview process, so that you can avoid these mistakes in the future. 

Simply said, the agency offers you a job, prepares you for success, attempts to speed up the whole process, if possible and most importantly, holds your hand along the way, so you don’t feel so alone. Therefore, it definitely pays off to address an agency as the number one option when looking for a job. In addition, this whole service is completely free.
