Recruitment Agencies

Why do we need agencies? What do recruitment agencies do? Are they all the same?

Moorejobs Ltd. are a dedicated ‘Financial Services’ recruitment company. Unlike many other agencies, we specialist in the Financial Services industry. We do not recruit in any other industry.

Why?

We believe that the industry is so complex that only a specialist company who understand the industry will be able to offer a good service and be able to assist in finding the most suitable position for a candidate.

Most agencies will have a few clients who are looking for similar candidates and they will submit their CV to any suitable client.

We prefer to telephone screen our candidates to enable us to understand their requirements in order to introduce them to just one of our clients at any one time. This allows us to address any issues resulting from any feedback and enable us to use this information to ensure a successful placement.

We believe that recruitment agencies can and do play a vital part in the recruitment process. However, we do believe that there are a lot of companies ‘selling’ their clients vacancies to their candidates resulting in placements which do not quite fit and ultimately leading to a breakdown in client, candidate and agency communications.

Buyer beware!

Ask for testimonials, seek referrals from other candidates who have used an agency. Ask the agency for their levels of experience etc. I am sure that you will find our experiences to be useful.


Good luck.
