Employment agency consultants work as intermediaries between employers and employees. They contact employees to seek out vacancies, listing down all the requirements needed together with the job specifications. They then advertise these jobs in the relevant media, and interview the applicants to ensure only those having the right qualifications go on to have a further interview with the employer: they then advise the applicants on the best way to present themselves, and make sure they have all the details of the time and place of the interview. Afterwards, they follow up each case to find out the outcome: they then record all the details into their filing system. Employment agencies deal with permanent or temporary employment, or both: the work is divided roughly fifty-fifty between dealing with employers and prospective employees.
