Recruitment Consultancy
Many companies that require staff will contact recruitment consultancy firms who will be able to present their clients with a list of potential candidates suitable to fill any vacancies they have at their business. Recruitment consultancy is an increasingly popular area to work and many people who have experience working in human resources will often find that they are able to forge a career in the recruitment consultancy industry.
A recruitment consultancy firm will typically specialise in one area and there are a number of recruitment companies who will exclusively provide staff to offices or the IT industry. Companies who require either permanent of temporary staff will often turn to a recruitment consultancy firm who specialises in recruiting staff specific to their industry. For some businesses this is the most effective way to find staff who meet their requirements, particularly those firms that are involved in very specific industries.
Recruitment consultancy firms will typically generate the majority of their revenue from their clients, who will pay the firm a premium for the staff that they send to work at their company. Many young people find their first serious jobs through recruitment consultancy firms after being sent to work at a company they have particularly enjoyed. After they have seen out the contract set by the recruitment consultancy firm they can often find themselves being recruited by the company they were indirectly working for as a permanent member of staff.
