Searching for work is a fulltime job, as they say. You have to spend time constantly tweaking your resume and cover letters, scouring the internet for potentially rewarding job postings, and go around in person in case anyone is looking to hire the old-fashioned way. If you’re looking for work, you should always remain diligent, and be your own advocate. All the same, there’s no reason not to try to use the help of a staffing agency as well. Employee staffing services can be invaluable to anyone who is trying to find a good job and is having difficulty with the search. Here are just a couple of the reasons that you should try a staffing agency.
No Risk
The first reason is there’s no reason not to. You don’t have to directly pay a staffing service, not until you actually get a job, and even then, not really in that case. Here’s how it works: when you talk to the staffing agency, you don’t owe them a single cent for any work that they do on your behalf. Instead, they benefit from the company itself if they can find you a job. Once they have found you a job, you will get paid whatever the company is offering for that particular job through that particular staffing agency, and the agency gets paid a little bit on top from the company in return for finding you. For obvious reasons, this means if you were able to find an equivalent job elsewhere, then you might be paid your wage plus the hypothetical staffing fee. However, since you wouldn’t have gotten the job in the first place without the staffing service, it’s a moot point, and if you do get work without the aid of the staffing company, they will not have any claim on that.
They Have a Network
Through years of placing people just like you in the right jobs, most staffing agencies have significant networks they can draw upon, to call up potential hirers and see if they have any openings present, and to find employers that are more likely to be in line with what you are looking for.
Better Quality of Work
Applying for jobs online is a bit of a catch-all. You just have no idea how good quality the jobs that you’re applying for will be. When dealing with a staffing agency, you will have a much better idea of what a job is like before you even go to interview. Check out Reveal Global to see available opportunities.
