Top 5 Reasons Why Candidates Use Recruitment Agencies

We asked our candidates what they think the benefits are of using an agency like Retailworld for their job hunt. Here’s the scoop! 

1. It’s a completely free service where you have your own dedicated account manager invested in your job hunt! What have you got to lose?

2. You can focus on your current job and not feel stressed to search when you come home. The whole process is managed by your dedicated account manager including the scheduling of interviews & salary negotiations. They’re basically like your own personal job agent!

3. An agency can get your resume in front of the right people much faster than traditional online applications because of the relationships they have with their clients. They’re also able to present you as a full package and not just a resume, getting you past the biggest hurdle which is securing that initial interview.

4. Your account manager can provide real-time feedback on your interview style. They set you up to succeed by going over typical questions that are asked in interviews, how to dress for certain brands, how to conduct yourself and ultimately feel more comfortable throughout the process so you can be yourself without sweating the small things! A great agency will also have plenty of free resources to set you up for success like this.

5. Retailworld provides career planning advice & salary benchmarking. If you’re not sure where you sit in the market. The account managers are knowledgeable about the retail industry and the culture of a company based on feedback from other candidates.
