Many struggle looking for employment on their own, having a discouraging feeling after submitting multiple applications and not receiving any response. Some companies may notify applicants when they receive their resumes and keep them updated throughout the hiring process. Some companies post a notification of hire, but leave applicants in the dark about their process and standing for the position. 

Employment agencies help alleviate the process of job searching by providing applicants with trust-worthy positions and keeping them in the loop about their status for applied positions, as well as potential new ones. Staffing agencies make connections with businesses to help them with the hiring process by providing candidates that fit the requirements of the position plus more. Many agencies have connections across a variety of industries, assisting many regardless of their industry as well as the type of employment they wish to seek. Agencies offer chances for full-time, part-time, and temporary/seasonal positions depending on your needs as well as those of the company. Gaining a job through a staffing agency can lead to full-time employment for part-time or temporary positions as well as help you gain experience. 

Job seekers can turn to an employment agency to take advantage of the many resources available. The access to training to help you gain knowledge of your job preference as well as other useful tips within your industry. Some agencies provide software programs or other computer skill applications since many jobs require knowledge of digital applications. Taking advantage of resources provided by an employment agency not only increases your knowledge about the skills and capabilities of the job, but better market you for future positions.   

When working with an agency, job seekers usually do one or more of the following: registration, application, resume upload, interview, perform qualifying tests, and training. Some agencies specialize in certain industries as well, so make sure to do plenty of research to find the best fit for your needs. This also helps when determining the reputation of the staffing agency and its overall success rate. Another way to ensure the best agency for you is to ask for recommendations from other job seekers, local online forum, or even Facebook groups.
