Industry Expertise

Recruitment agencies can often be industry-specific, with jobs targeted at a specific job sector or specialism (such as science).

Approaching such an agency can be a smart move as those that work there will naturally come equipped with existing knowledge of the industry and therefore detailed knowledge of the roles.

This can translate into clarity of what is expected and informed insight into the company which, in turn, gives you the upper hand in the application process.

This expertise can be a great trump card when it comes to role-specific tips, such as specifics to include on your CV and things to mention at interview.

Constructive Feedback

Feedback is imperative when it comes to improving performance and something that is often lacking during the recruitment process.

Employers are busy people and interview feedback is not guaranteed. Meanwhile, feedback on an application is virtually non-existent.

Conversely, recruitments agencies can provide a helpful report of your output, letting you know what worked and what didn't in order to help you improve for next time.

Whether that's advice on switching up your CV to tailor it to a role or providing you with interview insights and notes from the interviewers.
