5 Things to Expect When Applying Through a Recruiter
Eugene, OR - October 27, 2021
If you've been looking for a job and haven't found anything, or if you're thinking about changing careers, then it's worth applying through an employment recruitment center . But what does the process look like? Here are five things that will help you know what to expect:
1) Expect to fill out an application.
You'll have to fill out an application for a recruiter, just as you would when applying directly with a company. Your application serves as the basis for matching you with jobs that are available in companies where they recruit.
2) Bring your resume and cover letter with formatting.
As with any other job interview, you'll need your resume and cover letter because they show the recruiter what kind of person you are. It also helps them format their job postings to match you with a company's qualifications and culture.
3) Be prepared to answer questions about salary expectations.
This is not about whether you deserve the position or not. Having this discussion early on helps recruiters make sure your expectations match what the employer can pay.
4) Leave time for follow-up interviews after the initial one is over.
Follow-up interviews give recruitment services a chance to learn more information about you, and what kind of person they're looking for. It also allows you time to reflect and consider all your options. This helps both sides make an informed decision on if they should work together in the future.
5) Be prepared to take part in technical exercises during the interview process, if needed.
Many companies use technology like WebEx or Zoom, so recruiters will want to help you learn the proper tools to be successful in an interview.
Remember, don't give up hope! If you know what to expect and prepare for it, you may get the job offer and move forward in your career. All you must do is keep trying, and eventually, your efforts will pay off!
