As such, many businesses - big and small - will turn to recruitment agencies for help.

Recruitment companies essentially act as the middle man between the employer and the candidate, tasked with finding the right candidate for the role.

If you're thinking of using a recruitment agency in your job search, it could be the smart choice. Here are five great reasons to use a recruitment agency to find a job.

Exclusive Jobs

Recruitment agencies commonly get the nod from businesses over traditional in-house recruitment methods as they will pre-sift the CVs, leaving the cream of the crop for interview.

As a result, recruitment agencies often have advance access to jobs that are yet to become publicly available via traditional job boards. Recruitment agencies can also have access to exclusive jobs that are completely unavailable elsewhere.

What's more, it's not unusual for businesses to close a job ad early if they find the right candidate, so getting in early can be a big difference-maker.

Guidance & Support

Job hunting can be a frustrating experience, particularly when applications aren't producing responses and you seemingly aren't making any headway in your employment search.

Having a designated recruitment agent assigned to fight your corner can be a great form of support in your quest for employment, acting as a coach as well as a means to an end.

A personal contact capable of pointing you in the right direction and providing employer insight can be invaluable, particularly when it comes to tailoring applications.
