Job hunting is tough, and with so many people out of work, the competition can be stiff. Using job boards can feel like tossing your resume into a black hole, never to be heard from again. Your family and friends may try their best to help, but end up sending you suggestions that aren’t right for you. Fortunately, there is another way. Here a few reasons to consider a staffing agency.
1. Free Advice
Staffing agencies are paid by companies, not job hunters. If you’ve been out of the work force for a while, are changing careers, or simply want to make sure you’re at the top of your game, your staffing agency can help. From updating your resume to nailing the interview to negotiating the offer, your recruiter will be by your side every step of the way.
2. Maximizing Your Time
Job hunting is hard, time-consuming work. If you’re in school, caring for family members, or working another job, it can be difficult to give your job hunt all the energy it requires.
Staffing agencies focus full-time on matching job seekers with just the right employers. You don’t need to find the time to do everything yourself. Make sure your agency has everything they need from you, and let them do the legwork.
3. More Opportunities
A lot of jobs are never posted to public job boards. Staffing agencies know about many of these openings, and they know how to get you to the right person at the company. The bigger your pool of available options, the more likely it is that you’ll find just the right position.
If the first opportunity doesn’t work out, there is no need to worry. Your recruiter will keep your resume on file, ready to surface when another promising match comes around.
Job hunting is never easy, and as the economy starts to reopen it can feel impossible. Staffing agencies are free for job seekers, so why not find out what we can do for you?
