Finding a new job is a time consuming business. When someone is already in full time employment, finding the time to regularly check for new opportunities can be problematic, to say the least. By discussing what roles & expectations a job seeker is looking for with a consultant the applicant can have a company checking their details against newly posted jobs. Their CV is kept on file, & their details are check against all new roles without them having to lift a finger.Because of the way recruitment consultants work not all vacancies are advertised. They are as likely to fill roles from their stored databases of CVs as they are to advertise a role. The only way to be considered for some of the best posts out there is to be on the consultants’ books & be approached for the position before the need to advertise arises. It’s also worth noting that work that is offered to applicants this way is much more likely to result in a job, than a post that has been advertised nationally & gained hundreds or even thousands of applications.
Why think local?If you’re happy to relocate, or even work abroad, recruitment consultants open up a whole world of possibilities. Their expertise means that any possible need for permits can be explained in full & in some cases dealt completely with as part of their service. Applicants are likely to need to go to interview first, which can bring the risk of a lot of expense just to find out the role isn’t what was advertised, or that the company doesn’t suit. Because the consultant knows the role & workplace well they can save a wasted trip by discussing the company ethos, workplace & role before you set foot out of your door.Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/6435749
