As seasoned professionals when it comes to recruitment, the team at Labor Solutions has seen it all when it comes to applicants and how they interact with recruiters – the good, the bad, and the confusing! We want to remind job seekers that working with recruiters is like working with the employers themselves because we represent the clients who will ultimately employ you. That’s why it helps to always put your best foot forward when working with a recruiter.
Make the Most of Your Relationship with a Recruiter
Since a recruiter represents the companies you wish to work for, they make a good third party that you can express your concerns without sabotaging your chances of getting hired. That being said, you should still maintain a professional attitude working with a recruiter.
When you enter into a professional relationship with Labor Solutions or any recruiter, be sure you are clear on what your goals are. We can’t help you achieve them if you don’t even know what they are. Consider what field you would like to work in, what type of positions you are seeking, what area, what hours, and any other pertinent employment information you’ll need to share.
Make sure that your resume is up-to-date when you submit it to Labor Solutions. This information will help us determine which positions you are best qualified for.
Work with an agency that you trust. Ask friends and co-workers for recommendations on what staffing services they’ve used in the past, and what they thought of them.
Most importantly, be professional. This means being courteous and respectful on the phone and in person, following through with commitments you make, and being punctual to all appointments and interviews. Your behavior with the recruiter reflects your potential behavior on the job, and you want to make a good impression.
