Using Recruitment Agencies If you want a recruitment agency to help you secure a job, then there are some important things you need to know… The approach… It’s best to choose a couple of agencies that you like and feel can get you the type of jobs you want, rather than registering with all of them, as you will end up wasting time with ones who will never help you. How to get noticed and make them work hard for you… Know what type of job you want, and have a strong CV ready to send them. Also, be prepared to answer questions about any part of your CV. After that first contact… Get back to them fast when they call or email you; it makes their life easier (and that makes them like you more!) !What happens next? Keep in touch with your recruitment consultant; you need to stay ‘on their radar’
