Using a recruitment agency could be a way of finding a job. Here's how they usually work:
Companies ask the agency to find them candidates for a particular job
The agency then contacts people who are registered with them and arranges interviews with the employer
If you are offered and accept a job, the company pays the agency a fee, and the agency will pay you your wages.
If you're thinking of using a recruitment agency you'll need to:
Prepare your CV and decide what sort of jobs you're interested in
Contact agencies who offer the sort of work you're looking for and register with them. Many agencies will specialise in certain types of jobs like business admin, factory work, IT, sales or catering. Check their websites.
