Should I use a Recruitment Agency?

If you feel that a recruitment agency would help you in your job search, you should research then agencies above in more depth, and contact them to arrange an appointment.

You are more likely to be matched with a job vacancy if you have met with the consultant face to face, as he/she will have gained a good understanding of your skills and qualifications, plus knowledge of what you want from your next career move and what your expectations are.

How should I prepapre for a meeting with a recruitment consultant?

1) Treat the interview like a job interview. Dress well, prepare yourself, take several copies of your CV and any other documents stating your achievements, such as a portfolio of projects successfully completed.

2) Arrive on time, punctuality is cruicial

3) Go with an open mind. In tough economic times your job expectations may not match what is realistically available. Let the consultant guide and advise you but do tell them any aspects of work you are not prepared to do.

4) Provide the consultant with several contact details so that if an interview becomes available they can easily contact you.

5) Speak to several suitable agencies. You do not have to work with just one and your chances of an interview are higher if you work with more than one agency.
