Job seekers are a vulnerable bunch of people.
Only our family is more important than our career.
Thanks for the post.
Could you outline the costs of using a recruitment agency.
And I suspect that your real goal is to increase your site traffic and to raise your agency's profile. Nothing remotely wrong with that. No different I suppose than some of the large estate agents publishing reports that purport to educate buyers. But at least be clear about it - despite your protestations your business isn't a charitable organisation. That I said, I enjoyed your original post and thought you made some very valid points.The goal is job seeker education. To that end we are currently working on national media. We like to think of ourselves as advocates for job seekers. That is our job. Knowledge of how recruitment agencies works empowers job seekers and helps to protect them from exploitation. I suspect that Noel_C never read the article.
"There is a cost to clients for successful placements. These fees are pre-agreed before any work is done on behalf of the client and usually work on a percentage scale which increases with the salary offered, although this is not always the case."
What are the typical costs/scales?
Many thanks.
I have to say I'm with Noel_C on this, to be honest. At 2,000 words, I don't find the advertorial unduly long, but I don't find it mind-blowingly original either.I would be more than happy to post the whole article here though. The trouble is it is rather long. It may be on a recruitment agencies website but the information is truly impartial. It does not hold back on exposing some of the bad practice that exists out there. [...] There is no other like it out there anywhere. . . . . at least none that have not been written by us. We want to open the lid.

Jobs seekers need to take more control.

Hopefully some AAM members will find it useful, though. And of course they know where to find you now.
I think it comes across better if you contact an employer directly instead of threw an agency, it shows you are more independent
