Have you been considering a career change? Maybe your job isn’t as fulfilling anymore, or it no longer meets your financial needs or savings goals. Or perhaps something happened and you have been on an extended break or you’ve just lost your job. Whatever the reason, returning to the job market can be a daunting task.
It involves you having to market yourself in an environment that may have changed quite a bit since you last went searching. Not only that, but you also need to look for openings that match your criteria. The whole process can be a draining and time-consuming obstacle to your next career.
That’s where an employment agency like Trades Labour Corporation can help you. In a world where there are endless options, choices, jobs and employers, an employment agency can help you narrow down your search quite dramatically. Here are six reasons employment agencies are an essential part of your return to the job market:
They Want To Get To Know You
An employment agency’s job is to learn about you as an individual so they can best match you with a career opportunity that fits your goals and your experience. Everyone returning to the job market is different, with different reasons for seeking a new or different career and different expectations. Employment agencies want to get to know your unique experiences and skills in order to get you the right career match.
They Are A Direct Connection With Employers
Employment agencies have vital information about the industries you want to work in, which employers are hiring and what positions are available. They can guide you through the process of connecting with potential employers.
They Know The Ins And Outs
Details like salary, workplace culture and opportunities for advancement are important for professionals returning to the job market. But their needs are different from those looking for entry level jobs. Employment agencies can help you at whatever stage you’re at.
They Find You Work Fast
Sometimes, those getting back to the job market simply need a job quickly without being too picky, and employment agencies can help with that.
They Do The Legwork
Employment agencies help you search for new jobs without you having to commit all the time necessary to find one yourself. Once you set up a profile, an employment agent will connect you with the jobs that fit you to get you back into work.
They Help You Keep Current
Employment agencies know what the requirements are for the jobs you want. They can help you with advice on what employers really expect and can help you acquire what you need to keep up with demands.
