Sales recruitment agencies ?best at matching applicants and jobs?
Sales recruitment agencies are key resources for those looking at job vacancies due to their knowledge about the sector and the key companies within it, an expert asserts.
Anne Fairweather, the head of public policy at the Recruitment and Employment Confederation, claims these are better matched to the task of finding the right placement than the applicant themselves.
She says they often know a great deal about the firms they work for and can effectively select the candidates who will best fit in.
While the impression a jobseeker may receive while at the interview may seem attractive, she warns people that when they start workplaces will often be different.
Ms Fairweather claims using a sales recruitment agency can reduce the chance of this happening and cut down on the likelihood of a new position disappointing.
Recent figures supplied by Avaya show the average cost of absence for small and medium-sized businesses in the UK could be as much as £25,000 a year.
