“Staffing Firms and Executive Recruiters are responsible for 10% of positions that job hunters find. Employment agencies, “temp” firms, executive recruiters, and other staffing firms fill job openings for a commission, which is usually between 15% to 33% of the annual salary. The employer pays the fee. The remaining 15% of jobs come through online applications and recruiters who are not Executive recruiters. As job seekers, if we complete three online applications a day, it’s easy to fool ourselves into thinking we’re being productive. So here’s my question: Given that “Talking To Other People” yields five times the number of jobs as online applications (75% vs. 15%), and staffing companies yield almost as many opportunities as online applications (10% vs. 15%), don’t we owe it to ourselves to pursue these avenues? If not for ourselves, then maybe for our loved ones who depend on us and our salaries.”
