What exactly is an Employment Agency? A Staffing agency may go by several names. It s at times called an employment agency, employment recruitment agency or job agency, but basically, all that function of them are one in the same. An employment agency helps link job seekers to hiring managers who already have a need for his or her skills. In many cases, they act as a kind of personal assistant for the unemployed worker who helps screen out job candidates, and help find openings when it is time to apply for positions. They also often give advice to job hunters on things such as finding work in a particular industry, or even where to find potential employers once they have found a job.
How does an employment agency work? The way an employment agency works is pretty simple. The job applicants fill out a form called a Resume. The form tells the staffing company what kind of work they want, where they want to work and other information. The resume is sent to companies who match the criteria the applicant has provided. The job companies then send out unsolicited resumes – or, in some cases, they will send the resumes to the HR Department of the company who makes the initial contact with the applicant.
Does the hiring manager know how to read a resume? No. Not all staffing agencies specialize in reading resumes. Some have general resumes categories and a broad range of skills that are required to meet various company requirements.
How does an employment agency work with a recruiter? When the agency contacts a hiring recruiter for a particular position, they will explain what kind of position they want. The recruiter will begin to search the job posting sites and other sources. He will look at the resumes that are posted and try to locate candidates who may be suitable for the position. If the recruiter can’t find candidates who may be right for the position, he will pass on the information to the employment agency.
How does an employment agency help the hiring manager reach the hiring goal? When a company gets a large number of resumes, the hiring manager can get overwhelmed looking through all of the resumes. He doesn’t want to go through the process of reviewing each resume. The screening process can be extremely lengthy. The hiring manager can tell that the job description isn’t specific enough and that he needs a more specific candidate.
How does an employment agency work with the resumes? Once a good candidate is found, the recruiting agency sends the job seekers an email or call to set up a face-to-face interview. The interview will take place at the staff’s location. The staff will review each resume, make a choice about the best candidates and contact those individuals.
How does an employment agency work with the potential candidates? Once the screeners have reviewed all of the resumes, they send it to the staff for pre-screening. The screening process allows the recruitment agency to narrow down the resumes to only the best qualified candidates. The final selection of candidates is made by the hiring manager based on their qualifications, recommendations from the screening staff and other factors. The screening staff can only make suggestions; they can’t do anything about it. The recruiter chooses the candidates that are best suited for the job.
How does an employment agency work with the job candidates? The majority of agencies choose job candidates who are currently looking for work. They use this as their primary focus when they are screening applicants.
