You’ve probably sent out 20 applications already too. Have you heard from any of those companies since?

Probably not.

Studies show that there are more jobs on the global market now than before the pandemic hit. So what’s stopping businesses from hiring you?

They haven’t seen your application yet!

HR offices have been receiving thousands of applications daily and while it would be easy to hire everyone, they can’t.

Every application must be vetted and the chances of yours being at the top of the pile are slim.

However, with the help of a recruitment agency, you can land a good job faster. The following will explain.

Recruitment agencies will market you to prospective companies

With a recruitment agency, you don’t have to worry about your application being lost.

The agency usually has a good working relationship with the people you want to work for, so the applications they submit get preference over everyone else’s.

They will pitch your application to your potential employer based on your skillset and qualifications.

This way, you’ll get a response faster!

Many recruiters are dismayed at the applications that they see. You may have all the qualifications in the world but a badly written CV and Cover Letter is enough for them to cast your application aside.

A good recruitment agency will tweak your application so that you make the best impression on your prospective employers.

Many of the jobs available right now are entry-level jobs. However, businesses are looking for skilled people to fill these positions, and boost productivity. As such, there is room for salary negotiation.

Much like having a lawyer to fight your case, a recruitment agency will help you get paid by your skillset and in some cases, a bit extra too!

When choosing a recruitment agency, be sure that they have the connections you need.

Some agencies are better suited for certain industries than others. And if you do your research, you’ll find the agency that employers trust when they need high-quality personnel.

If you’re a seaman or skilled oil and gas professional in Croatia, Zorovic Maritime Services should be your choice!
