REASONS TO USE A PROFESSIONAL CONSULTANT

1. DILIGENTLY RESEARCH AVAILABLE OPPORTUNITIES.
If you are looking for a new job, it might be impossible for you to know about all the available opportunities. A recruiter researches on the industry and identifies openings that will match your interest and goals.

2. MATCH YOUR SKILL SETS WITH THE RIGHT JOB OPPORTUNITIES
A professional search consultant does a complete background study of the hiring organisation. They will spend quality time analysing your goals and identify opportunities on the same lines.

3. GET YOU ACCESS
A good professional search consultant has the ability to get you access to suitable employers. A good consultant has “credibility” which, in this business, means that
(1) they only present candidates to organisations fitting the firm’s requirements,
(2) they only present candidates to firms that in fact have positions,
(3) they only present candidates who are genuinely interested in working in that organisation and
(4) have good reasons for wanting to do so.
When a professional search consultant presents a resume, the firm knows the recruit is serious. A professional consultant will sell your abilities and background to the right people in the organisation you are contemplating even before the organisation sees your resume.

4. PREPARE YOUR RESUME IF NECESSARY
A professional consultant will prepare your resume, if necessary. The job market has become so competitive that if your resume has to get noticed, then it needs to show that you are a good fit for the particular job you are being hired for.
The resume will be written keeping the industry needs and also according to the experience you hold. Though a professional fees is charged, it is recommended if you are looking for a job overseas.

5. MAINTAIN YOUR CONFIDENTIALITY
These consultants also ensure that your confidentiality is kept intact. If you have sent your resume through the proper channel, firms also do not delve into the candidate’s confidentiality because the organisations know that the recruitment firm will recommend good talents to them.

6. TAKE YOUR CAREER FORWARD
A professional consultant will take time to understand where you want your career to be. Once the firm identifies your goals, they will start looking for the best possible opportunities. A good consultant will help move your career forward by placing you in an organisation that fits your future goals.

7. PREPARE YOU FOR INTERVIEWS
Many a recruitment firm apart from helping the candidate in writing resumes, also grooms them to give the perfect interview. They will let you know of the expected questions and also prepare you for the unanticipated.

8. Assist you in salary negotiations
Many a times, recruitment firms also handle the salary negotiation part for you. If they feel that you are the perfect candidate for a particular job profile, recruitment firms themselves take interest get you a good package.

9. PROVIDE MORAL SUPPORT
Normally, after every interview your job consultant will call and enquire about how the experience was. At times, if the interview has been stressful, people in these firms will ensure that psychologically you are ready for the next interview.
