With some businesses choosing to outsource their hiring process, recruitment agencies handle majority of the hiring and screening process for your potential employer. This limits your opportunity for consideration by these employers through only recruitment agencies. With bigger companies choosing to go this route to minimize their expenses and having passed a requirement by these agencies, this means that your resume is exposed to these big companies which could mean a big potential being hired by them.

If you work with these recruitment agencies, aside from gaining an opportunity to be considered, you are early at the list for being evaluated for any job openings. Being hired by these companies is a good point to your fresh career portfolio as a marketing professional.

Longer Time as Part of a Recruitment Agency’s Database

Your resume gets more opportunities to be evaluated for a position the more time your resume spends as part of an agency’s database. And these opportunities equate to more actual evaluations, this means that you get more interviews and more considerations for the final selection of a position. As a soon-to-be marketing professional, this gives your resume more exposure to various employment offers and you an edge in getting first pick of the positions offered in the digital marketing job market.

Practice for Nailing “The” Interview

In submitting your resume to these agencies early, you are likely to get interviews before you even graduate. With these interviews, you get to have a feel and experience of undergoing a job interview. So, when the sought-after employers start to look for talent in your batch of graduates and they come calling, you have more experience and confidence in that interview for your dream company.

This will only give them the impression of the kind of attitude you have that employers will surely look for. For a new professional, this kind of attitude could be the difference in being hired or not for your dream job.

Indeed, recruitment agencies offer a lot of advantages like exposing your resume to multiple potential employers and being considered by employers who only hire through a recruitment agency.
