Advantages: Chance of finding work

Disadvantages: Can be tough and nagging

Everyone should be aware of the constant problems you have when working for a recruitment agency. The one common problem I had was with Man Power the problem was the amount of phone calls you get in a day! They tell you not to leave your phone switched on however they end up ringing you! They expect you to answer the calls but leave them switched on when your at work. Well how does it work when they ring you at bloody 9.55 in the morning for a check up! Recruitment companies love doing that and then give you stick for not answering your phone.

Always keep your phone on for silent is what I would recommend. The second point I would like to make is make sure you turn up on time and give them a call back to let them know how your day has gone at work. By doing this it helped me gain some communication with them and put me forward for other roles. By doing this you will help your communication with the recruitment agency develop quite well.

If you are not working yet and would like to go see them I would recommend the following tips. Always go in dressed well and put together your best points. Tell them what you are good and show them the hunger ness towards finding work with them.

One thing I did was keep ringing them up every day and eventually they put me first for a role. If you keep doing that they will think lets just give this guy a job! If you ring everyday just keep doing that about roles you like with agencies they will put you forward first for a role.

Recruitment companies are not the best to work for but at times they can find work fast. It all depends on how you handle them and how well you fit their criteria.

Summary: Just another way of finding work
