What is a Recruitment Agency?

A Recruitment / Manpower agency acts as an in-between an association that is looking to employ someone and an individual who is looking for a job. A Recruitment / Manpower agent’s main task is to source the most suitable applicant for a job opportunity that they have been requested to fill.

How does a recruitment agency work?

Recruitment agencies differ in their methodology but the general flow is as follows::

• The agency is sent a job description from the association that has a vacant position
• A set of applicants is drawn up by the association who select applicant from the pool of resume that they hold on their record.
• The association selects their preferred applicants from the resume selection and asks the organization to arrange and coordinate an interview.

What’s the benefit of using a Recruitment / Manpower agency?

Using a recruitment agency can be a valuable tool in searching for a job. Career Placements often have in-depth knowledge of their client so can offer inside data before an interview. Trustworthy agencies will prepare you for a meeting with the association, offering tips on what to ask and sharing data on the history and culture of the association. They can market your candidature in the entry phase of the interview and even negotiate with regards to salary and date of joining on your behalf if you succeed to the later phases of an interview. Some recruitment agencies have exclusive access to job vacancy that would not generally be found through an online search inquiry.

It is important to use a Recruitment agency like Career Placements as part of your search rather than depend on them exclusively to secure a position..

How can I get my CV / Resume on the Record?

If you are interested in using a recruitment agency as part of your career profession search you are generally required to meet with an individual of the Recruitment agency. Telephone interviews can be conducted if you are overseas or unable to be present however it is usually more beneficial for all parties if you are there in person. When you have met or spoken with somebody to discuss your experience and profession objectives in detail the Recruitment agency will add your Resume to their database and typically reach you once a potentially suitable career opportunity emerges

How long do I have to wait until I get an interview?

This completely depends on your knowledge, experience and whether it matches the vacancy on the job description and also on how the job market looks overall. Diwali and Christmas / New Year time can often be quiet times for Recruitment / Manpower agencies due to the holidays, whereas there is often an abundance of new positions around August-October and January-March. In order to increase your chances of being selected for an interview it might be an idea to join an agency that is more efficient to your own profile or careers goals: e.g. a former student employment agency, a banking employment agency, a Recruitment agency that has offices in India etc. Alternative tip is to call the Recruitment agency every other week / fortnight to express your ongoing readiness and to check to see if any new openings have arisen recently.

Can I sign / tie up with more than one recruitment / manpower agencies?

Yes. There is no law that says you are controlled to signing up with one agency. It is prudent, however, to make sure that you don’t allow yourResume to be submitted to the same company for the same vacancy by more than one agency. Duplications of your Resume can make you look like you’re anxious to get a job rather than performing selective and professional. Always ask your Recruitment / Manpower agency contact person to tell you if he/she puts forward your Resume to any employer and keep a note of the association name and the date your particulars were surrender to.
