Staffing firms provide a number of benefits for job candidates on the hunt for their next position. Here are some of the main reasons why you should consider working with a staffing firm to help you find your next job and further develop your career.

Staffing Firms Provide an Instant Professional Network

It’s undeniably true that the best way to get a job is through networking and business relationships. If you are new to the job search (maybe you are a recent college graduate or returning to work after a break) or if you are looking to launch a career in a new industry, working with a staffing firm can provide the connections and industry knowhow that would otherwise be unavailable to you. It takes time to build a professional network. Each interaction, employer and colleague, is an addition to your web of professional connections. Many positions are filled by workers who have some connection to the employer, either previous work history or a direct referral. By working with a staffing agency, you can build off an existing professional network and better position yourself to be hired within your target industry.

Staffing Firms Provide Valuable Coaching and Support

Think of your time with a recruiter as an investment in your career. Staffing firms can help place you in the path of employers and businesses that are looking for your specific brand of skills and qualifications, bettering the chances of you succeeding in your job search and also in the company’s hiring of a high-quality worker. They can also provide guidance on how to better present yourself (whether in interview or resume form) so that you land the job you really want.

Considering that the firm you work with has an invested stake in your success, you can be sure that the recruiters really are on your side and want to help you find the best job for your skills and experience. In some cases, staffing firms act like your agent, and can help negotiate benefits, salary or commissions. They want to make sure that you and your employer are both happy with the placement, and will make themselves available to you in any number of ways. That career support is truly invaluable, and it’s always nice to know you have someone fighting in your corner.

Companies Rely on Staffing Firms

Just as job seekers sometimes rely on staffing firms, so too do companies seeking industry-leading talent. A lot of time and effort goes into recruiting. Many companies set aside substantial amounts of their annual budget to invest in external staffing support. Finding the right man or woman for the job is their job. Working with a staffing firm can help to place you in the line of sight of some of the top employees in an industry where you might not otherwise have the opportunity.
