The power of recruitment agencies

This is a true story of how potent recuitment agencies are:

Extremely recently my son came property on a Friday afternoon saying his contract wasn’t becoming renewed and that he was fundamentally fired.  He had been late for work that morning, only a few minutes, but he had been provided a chat previously about becoming late in the previous. He was gutted it was his very first complete time job from leaving college and had enjoyed operating at this spot for just over a year. As he grew far more confident and gained expertise he would complain about the much less experienced agency employees who were paid far more than him.  Also the fact that some of the folks would talk and doss about a lot of the time but he actually did work and was rapidly at creating completed work.  The organization anticipated a lot of overtime and numerous weeks he did 7 days.  I believed this was far as well much for him.  He nonetheless wanted to go out with his mates on the weekend which is understandable.  But with all the perform and no rest each and every six weeks or so he would accidently lay in. He being so keen was his downfall to an extent.  He did as a lot overtime as he possibly could but never used his holidays.  He would clock in and get straight to work.  If he had stood about chatting with the others he would have study the notice board and realised if he wanted to book any holiday around Christmas he would have to do so prior to a specific date.  He missed all this becoming also keen to get to perform.  So when Christmas came he did not get considerably of a break.  By the time a year had passed he had not had a single week off but had been late ten instances in about 14 months.  Luckily he had the final laugh.

Right after he sat down and explained why he lost the job I gave him a pep talk to cheer him up.  I said not to be concerned we would uncover him yet another job in no time.  He was knowledgeable now so surely it could not be tough to uncover a new job. I suggested we place his CV on a couple of recruitment agencies which is what I did.  He went off up town to sign on and I submitted his CV to one recruitment agency.  Within ten minutes the agency rang asking for him.  They told me he could begin a new postion the following Monday which he did.  He was out of operate for about three hours in total.  Now he is functioning for a a lot larger hourly rate.  The only down side is he has to commence an hour earlier.  This was his karma I believe, but he is still there now and enjoying a larger income.

So if you have become unemployed for whatever reason you are now in a far better position than ever to get back into function.  The web has changed the way most employers advertise their jobs.  The beauty of recruitment agencies is that they normally don’t charge the job seekers. They make their income from the employers who pay them to uncover suitable applicants for their job vacancies.  

Employers use these agencies for many diverse motives.  Some employers want to save income on advertising fees.  Some would just rather not advertise publicly.  But mainly since they are seeking for distinct abilities and they know that specialist recruitment agencies only list relevant candidates.
