In such a competitive job market, finding and landing a great job is never easy. However, working with a recruitment agency can significantly improve your chances and ensure that you have a chance to build your career and skills quickly.
Here are 5 reasons why you should work with a recruitment agency instead of applying directly:
They have inside knowledge of the companies who are hiring. Because recruitment agencies work with HR, managers, and candidates coming from multiple companies in the market, they can give you insight into a company’s culture and into the job you are applying for.
They can help you prepare for the interview. Every company has a different interview format and style and unless you’ve interviewed with them previously, you won’t know what to expect. Agencies who have worked with these companies, on the other hand, know exactly how to prepare candidates for the first to the final interview round.
They keep you updated on the interview process. The interview process can be nerve-racking but a well-networked recruitment agency can and will follow up with the decision maker to get you an update and/or feedback.
A recruitment agency will give you a competitive edge. A good recruitment agency will help you format your CV to industry standard and help you focus or reformat your skillset according to the role you’re applying for. They can coach and help you attain your career goals.
A recruitment agency will help you negotiate a salary. An agency will know what the company can afford, they know what applicants with similar skill-sets are earning, and what other companies are paying their employees, making the salary negotiation much easier and smoother.
