Anyone had any good/bad experiences?
I used to work in the biz - some are OK, some aren't. The more specialised the better, because they will have the better clients and more jobs on their books.
ps with Reed, they were probably data cleansing as you might not have told them to take you off their database.
I dont get it. Oh its actually not a joke. Mad Cyril posting a sensible post, whatever next.
Never trust one myself, but like Estate Agents a neccessary evil.
ps They aren't data cleansing, they are updating their records so they can impress clients with the high calibre of candidates on their books, despite the fact that in most cases your improved CV will have been despite them not because of them.
well yes, but for Reed it's just a numbers game. Anyone over 5 years old after last log in gets a call.
My rule is to let them come to you. Firstly because it saves the hassle of trying to find one yourself and secondly you will at least know that they're interested in you.
I have only ever had 4 jobs.
It turns out that agents may be good or bad, but 75% of jobs are never advertised. They are given to people who know people. The more people you know, the more successful you will be at finding a job. That said, if you didn’t perform people wouldn’t be prepared to recommend you.
That largely depends on the industry though any company who calls themselves "an equal opportunity employer" ie local government will need to comply with the legislation and that involves advertising the vacancy

Also beware of recruiters who advertise the same post on several job boards...
