Not everyone feels the need to use a recruiter when looking for a job or making a career change. However there are many advantages to using expert help.
When unemployed and searching for a new career opportunity, we recommend that you use all the means available: job boards, friends, your professional network, as well as a recruiter.
What if you are currently employed and considering a career change? In this case, a recruiter’s services are a must!
Here are some of the benefits of working with a recruiter:
-
Confidential job searches
When using a recruiter, you can search for new opportunities without worrying that your current employer will find out. There is no need to post your resume on a job board and have your boss find it.
-
Save time
Searching for a new job takes a lot of time and effort. Working with a recruiter allows you to focus on you current job and saves you time chasing potential dead-ends.
-
Career direction
Recruiters will take the time to understand what is important to you in your next role, and then match you with the right job to achieve your career goals.
-
Resume advice
Many professionals find it difficult to articulate their skills and experience on paper and communicate the advantage of hiring them. An experienced recruiter can help polish your resume so it stands out amongst your peers.
-
Interview guidance
Recruiters are in tune with what their client company is looking for and understand the interview process. This valuable information can help you to successfully handle the interview.
-
Access to the decision makers
Recruiters work closely with their clients and have the ability to fast-track and put it in front of the right people.
-
Access to private opportunities
Some opportunities are never posted on the public boards. A company may choose to keep the information “quiet” for a number of reasons and will use recruiters to fill these positions.
