Exciting times - you've been offered the job, it can be easy to get carried away and accept straight away when you're dealing directly with the client. What if you have been offered four jobs? Who do you bounce this off? Having a recruiter to act as the middle man, gives you breathing space and time to think. It can also be daunting trying to negotiate with a potential new employer, after all, what will they think of you, if you play hardball.

This is where going through a recruiter really comes into its own, it is their job to get you the best job AND deal available whilst ensuring it doesn't reflect badly on you. That's their job after all - they want you to get the job and they want their client to be happy too.

You should especially consider using a recruiter if you have any special requirements, such as flexible or reduced working hours, or you have any gaps in your CV - a good recruiter will help to explain this. They will do the best by you and the client, and further to that offer you the advice you will need when it comes to resigning - one of the most daunting things anyone has to do.

We provide career advice and workshops to ascertain where they are and where they should be in the market from a financial and career standpoint. We will cover the whole market, talk through bonus and benefit structures and where the career might go with a number of different companies. An offer is not just a salary. In fact, the salary should be the smallest factor in accepting any role. We talk them through the whole process."
