How A Good Sales Recruitment Agency Can Benefit You

By retaining the services of a sales recruitment agency you will save yourself the

time in that you do not need to interview a large number of applicants (many of whom will not be at all suitable for a sales role), nor do you need to tie up staff resources in organizing advertisements in the media, be it online or in the newspapers careers section. The sales recruitment agency will arrange the advertising of the position and screen future applicants on your behalf.

The agency will then provide those whom they regard as the best job applicants for the employer to meet. Needless to say there is a fee involved for this service and as a general rule it will represent a percentage of the annual salary offered or negotiated for the new recruit. A sales recruitment agency will often seek to establish an on-going relationship with an employer and to do this will usually provide additional services by way of the following:

Payroll assistance for any employer that requires this service

Provide sales training for current and new staff (often the sales recruitment agency will continue to stay in contact with the new placement and liaise with the employer to make sure everyone is satisfied with progress being made and sales achieved.) Negotiations on salaries and packages with the employer (in conjunction with the successful applicant.)

Temporary placements when there are absences or annual leave vacancies within the company. From a job applicant's perspective the sales recruitment agency assists in the following ways:

Sales training for job seekers to better equip them for their new role. (This training is not necessarily focused on product but rather revolves around the skills required in any selling process.)

Temporary job assignments for job seekers who may be seeking short term employment only. Long term job assignments for job seekers both full and part-time. Prepare resumes for prospective job seeker. Again, a good sales recruitment agency will have staff on board who can assist you in putting together an impressive CV in a format that will be easy to read.

The sales recruitment agency will always keep a very detailed database list of all applicants and employer clients. The agency may already have existing long term relationships with employers but will also often cold call employer prospects, with the aim of making an introduction and gaining some insight into the company's employment requirements over the next 12 months (full time, part time casual).

Sales recruitment agencies have been providing their services to employers and job seekers alike for many years and have taken away the burden previously left the responsibility of the employer to advertise and interview for future jobs.
