Save Time and Improve Odds

Savvy job seekers understand the value of connecting with employment agencies in your industry or city. This is an effective tactic for trying to jump start your job search, make new contacts, and explore multiple openings.

Get Industry Specific

Many employment agencies are dedicated to serving one specific industry, occupation, niche, or geographic territory. Some are narrowly focused – others are quite broad. You should research and identity ones in your realm.

Unbiased Feedback and Advice

Some employment agencies are quite willing to engage in conversation with job seekers. Many recruiters at these agencies offer helpful advice and/or unfiltered feedback – this external perspective can be valuable information.

Things to Consider When Contacting Employment Agencies

Employment agencies are generally inviting and welcoming to job seekers. Most agencies make it easy for professionals to reach them and/or upload a copy of your Resume to their website.
The vast majority of employment agencies are free (no charge) to job seekers. This means it doesn’t cost money to upload a copy of your Resume and/or give employment agencies a phone call to introduce yourself.
Employment agencies conduct preliminary interviews and assessments with prospective job seekers for temporary, temp-to-hire, part-time, and full-time jobs across a broad range of industries and occupations.
Employment agencies are not obligated to help you find work. Most recruiters will only genuinely take an interest in qualified candidates for vacant roles they’re responsible for filling.
