10 Ways a recruitment agency can help your business

For many years the term ‘recruitment agency’ has been dirt words for hiring managers but many businesses do solely rely on them to recruit for candidates enabling a ‘partner’ relationship between employer and agency. Here are 10 reasons why you should use recruitment companies:

 

  1. Time saver

When trying to find the right candidates it can be very time consuming, using a recruitment agency will help reduce the time and internal resources that you need to dedicate to recruitment. It will also lead to a quicker turnaround on filling vacancies.

 

  1. Access the best

By using a recruitment agency, you are more likely to access the best job seekers! People who are actively looking for work or a change in career are more likely to register with agencies. Recruitment agencies when searching will position their vacancy adverts on a range of platforms and will have the understanding and knowledge to understand what it takes for an advert to catch the attention of potential candidates. All of this is knowledge that you only get from working in recruitment.

 

  1. Access to national job boards

Negotiating your job recruiting processes can be costly and time consuming, by using agencies it can help improve the efficiency of the recruitment process by having direct access to national job boards and having the advantage of sourcing the best candidates on the market.

  1. Specificity

Sometimes when you are recruiting, your requirements can be quite specific and require an expert who understand the position and the candidate requirements. Using a recruitment agency means that only candidates who are fully qualified for the role will be shortlisted for the position. Recruitment agencies will manage the process by rejecting any unsuitable candidates and managing any queries about the role.

  1. Sector expertise

Recruitment consultants are experts at filtering, screening, and profiling candidates.

  1. Seasonal demand

Recruitment agencies will take a huge amount of the pain and stress away from business’s who need quick access to temporary candidates during busy times such as Christmas or holiday cover.

  1. Salary benchmarking

Sometimes you can have a job role within the company, and it can be unsure as to what the correct salary should be for that position. Recruitment agencies can give you an accurate market rate using salary data and local market knowledge.

 

  1. Focus on serving the client

If no candidate is hired, no fees will be charged for work done. If an agency is unable to successfully assist your business, then there is nothing to pay. This ensures our services, resources, and expertise focus on providing you with the best possible candidates.

  1. Interview candidates

Recruitment agencies conduct interviews on an employer’s behalf, screening potential candidates to begin the process of narrowing down the applicants, eliminating an unsuitable match from the process. Recruitment agencies can also conduct the background checking on candidates invited to interview.
