Everyone should have someone that works on their behalf to find the best opportunities for them in the marketplace. Companies are very selective on who they hire and with the onslaught of resumes from places like Career Builder and Monster, they have an immense amount of resumes to review. The bottom line is this – if you want a great job, you have to be different from the person next to you. In many cases the only difference is your agent.
Agents act on your behalf and represent your best interest. Take a sports agent for example, they represent their star athlete and work very hard to get them the career and pay they want. They don’t get paid unless they get their professional what they want.
There are many companies out there that want you to pay them to help you find a job. In most cases, all they do is help you polish your resume, work on your interviewing skills and teach you how to research the companies you want to work for and how to contact them. If you have to do all the work, why pay them? Any good Career Agent will all of the work for you and help you build your resume and interviewing skills at NO charge!
Having a personal career agent guarantees that someone will represent you and work very hard to find you the job you want. An Agent cares about what you’re looking for, so they won’t waste your time with jobs that don’t fit your criteria. In most cases Agents are able to work directly with the hiring manager which means you are more likely to be interviewed and with an agent representing your interests, any negative feedback from the hiring manager can typically be overcome.
Having someone work on your behalf is the most effective way to stay on top of current market trends and find a new career. Almost every company is open to working with an agent since it makes their job of filling positions much easier. When faced with the many resumes and the demands of every hiring manager, having an agent navigate through the hurdles, make the calls and help close the deal for you – is really the way to go.
