For recruitment agencies to have a well respected relationship with a client, it is imperative that they always put forward candidates with an almost perfect match for the vacancy.

This is not always easy and although agencies may have a healthy number of prospective candidates available, they are very often not suitable. These unsuitable candidates are frequently forgotten about, even though they could potentially be a valuable employee.

Advantage Career Skills can help both potential candidates and agencies. Potential candidates who do not currently have the correct skills or experience for open vacancies can be supported by Advantage. We can take the candidates that agencies are currently unable to accommodate and help them to develop their potential.

We can help applicants re-write their CV’s and improve their interviewing skills and techniques. Upon returning to an agency, their CV will be presented in such a way that agencies and recruiters can see at a glance the imperative information they require to make a match. Skills summary sheets (client front sheets) will be prepared to further help the agency. In addition if permitted by the candidate we will make a copy of their interview, which can be passed onto the agency to further aid their quest for the perfect match.

If a candidate comes correctly prepared to an agency, the consultant will have more time to dedicate to those all important sales calls, understanding their clients requirements and making improved, thoroughly considered placements.
If a candidate has been coached, we believe they will stand out from the crowd!

At Advantage Career Skills we pride ourselves on our reputation in the marketplace. We want to continue to build on this reputation and believe that the services we can offer provide mutual benefits to both the agency business and the candidate seeking new employment. The agency service we provide is free of charge and by offering this we hope consultants will be able to focus more time and effort making those all important placements. Please call us now to discuss how we can work together.
