How To Win With Recruitment Agencies
12/11/2011 13:37
Funnily enough, most people do not know what a Recruitment Company is}. I actually don't know why this needs to be and why companies like to maintain these things so secret. Recruitment Consultants, en masse, appear to imagine that the task hunting public perceive precisely what they do. Unfortunately untrue! Unless you are a temporary employee, and therefore in touch with your agent usually (hopefully), you probably do not have much cause to be in contact with the aforementioned Recruitment Agencies. Unless of course you are really hunting for a different task currently.
And, during my time in Recuitment, I had many allegations levelled at both my workers and myself. In some instances the "dangerous" reputation (ie; simply out to make a quick buck and who gives a rattling with regards to the applicant, or probably even the customer come to think about it!) is warranted. A good recession all the time shakes out a number of the worst offenders as agencies must up their game to distinguish and win confidence, so I believe things are on the up at present
The very first thing you require to do is take a look at and see if the Recruitment Agency is a member of your countries trade body...the REC within the U.K. There isn't any compliance within the United Kingdon, the REC are about as close as you will get to regulation, but it's definitely worth checking as they've a voluntary code. Member Businesses are supposed to abide by the code which supplies an ethical framework for operations. This code will make sure the professional and confidential service that you have a right to count on! The very least you should anticipate is as follows:-
1. Supply a private interview with you wherever possible
2. Make any interview preparations for you
3. Keep you informed of progress on any job applications
4. Completely make sure all your details are saved confidential
5. Solely present you to jobs for which you might be both certified and WANT to be put presented to.
It is extremely unprofessional for an agent to forward your CV to a client without your precise permission, it doesn't matter what the state of affairs - DO NOT PUT UP WITH IT
6. Guarantee you might be by no means given any info designed to mislead you in any way (yes, it happens)
Agencies will also have given guarantees to their purchasers, for example to not take folks from their shoppers' workforce, you possibly can ask who they work on behalf of.
If you've got any doubts by any means, contact the trade affiliation, they're extremely helpful. The trade affiliation can be a good place to start out when searching for recruiters that recruit in your market. They will only be too pleased to give you an inventory of related member corporations that may be able to help. Another good source of the higher businesses is the commerce press. Most of the larger businesses representing any market space will likely be present within the commerce press.
So, let's return to the question at hand - what's a Recruitment Company? Quite simply, a Recruitment Company has a customer base from which they get task by advertising and marketing their services and then discover candidates to satisfy the vacancies. Okay, I do know that all sounds awfully simple, however it's basically what occurs! They find candidates (by promoting, networking, referral and from their existing database), send them to the relevant company vacancies, organize interviews and then last of (hopefully) arrange for you to start your another job! I know that all sounds fairly simplistic.
Indeed, the method itself may be very simple, nonetheless the vagaries of the recruiting procedure and getting 2 people to agree is much harder I can assure you.
Having been one in every of them for many years, Recruiters do graft hard for their money, all you need is an efficient agent!
I know this has only scratched the surface of this colossal subject but hopefully it offers you some useful pointers to find a suitable Agent for you. {Good luck in your career search.

Email Copy Clinic Review
07/10/2010 20:15EMail Copy Clinic - Increase Your EMail Response Rates By 47%!
If you're a regular reader of Internet Marketing musings you'll know that one of the people I REALLY listen to is Armand Morin.
Why?
Well for two reasons I guess. Firstly he's made (the last time I checked) over $70 million online, something I'd quite like to copy! I only listen to people who have done what I want to do. So, in short he walks the walk. And secondly, he is straight down the line, to the point and delivers outstanding value for money. Oh, and he is without doubt one of the best Internet Marketing "how to" trainers...hat's probably three reasons but hey, I like to give value too!
You will probably also know that I was fortunate enough to meet Armand at Armand Morin Live in London last year.
One of the most interesting sessions in that amazing weekend looked at why Email Marketing is NOT dead. This despite many Gurus crying from the rooftops Email's time had passed.
In this session Armand revealed his full psychology and methodology of Email Marketing. And, he showed how EMail marketing is still making him many millions of dollars.
Showing us actual practical examples from some of his most successful campiagn, Armand confirmed he still uses Email Marketing as one of his MAIN online marketing tools. He showed some of his figures and believe me he is STILL raking in the cash by using Email Marketing...extensively!
So, I was not surpsied when Armand Morin packed up this knowledge and made it into EMail Copy Clinic. If you think EMail marketing is dead...think again!
And, I am delighted to tell you that this product is exactly what Armand showed me back in late 2009.

So, what's included in EMail Copy Clinic?
Well, basically, this eCourse will teach you to write "high impact", "results driven" email copy that will increase your sales from Email Marketing.
The reason most people think EmailMarketing is dead is that their copy sucks and doesn;t motivate the reader to take action! What you need to do is create compelling messages that virtually guarantee to bring you results. Certainly some of the brain dead emails I get in my inbox would kill any sort of marketing! Why? Simply because it's just not appealing to customers! How bored are you from seeing some of the awful headlines? What a turn of some of them are!
However, if you write Emails with copy so compelling that your list is virtually compelled to buy - then it's a vry diferent matter.
If you use Email Marketing correctly you WILL still get great results from Email Marketing and make lots of sales.
