No Recruitment Agencies

Time and time again we see jobs posted with the employer stating No Recruitment Agencies. We want direct recruitment, direct recruitment, direct recruitment they say. Agencies have been great and serve an important function in the hiring process.

They find candidates, go through many CVs to find applicants and filter our applicants they feel will not be suitable for the role. The problem is many of these recruitment agencies have people from a sales background with little understanding of HR. Based on feedback this is the major issue and flaw with many recruitment agencies which may explain why many employers state No Recruitment Agencies.

To much emphasis is placed on sealing the deal with the average deal worth £15,000 to an agent you can see why sales are so important. Due to this many viable applicants who may not have the experience or proven track record or the key words on their CV will not get put forward for a role which they could easily do given the chance.

Direct Recruitment in other words applying direct to employers can help avoid being trapped in a circle where only the candidates that match key words based on the sales agent  recruitment agent get the interview.
Sites such as www.jobsite.co.uk do post direct recruitment jobs many are from agencies but www.joblinksdirect.com  filter out agencies and have no recruitment agency jobs.

Direct Recruitment


Direct Recruitment
Finding Direct Recruitment is not the easiest task as many jobs are found via recruitment agents and not Direct Recruitment with the employer.
We have noticed so many jobs posting on large companies sites which are inactive and marketing gimmicks by agents. Direct recruitment would be a very cost effective way for companies to hire staff using saving thousands in recruitment fees. Jobs seekers are now turning to sites for jobs without recruitment agents.

Searching for these type of jobs is not easy as most top searches in google return ads by these agents hence the growing popularity of sites shunning agents are showing direct jobs. Check Marquee Jobs in Southall
