How Can a Guernsey Recruitment Agency Help You?
If you’re a professional seeking a job in Guernsey or you’re an employer that needs the support of a Guernsey recruitment agency, there’s a number of different ways in which we can help. Here’s some of the key reasons you might choose to work with a Guernsey recruiter:
Access to a wider range of roles: When you’re a jobseeker it can be tough to find your ideal role, especially in competitive professional markets such as finance. It also doesn’t help that many top employers don’t actively market their roles to the widest possible audience. This is where a recruitment agency, especially in a market as compact as Guernsey, can be a huge help. We know the biggest employers on the island and we have a great relationship with them, meaning we often have access to the roles you wouldn’t usually find.
Higher chance of success: Aside from being able to link you with your dream role, we’re also able to improve your chances of success. While there’s never a surefire guarantee, our research suggests that working alongside a recruitment agency improves your chances of a successful application by 20%. This is because recruitment agencies typically have a more transparent relationship with hiring managers, meaning we’re able to find the best candidate for the role quickly and efficiently.
Reduce the length of your job search: One of the key issues that many jobseekers face, especially at the outset of their career, is having the resilience to go through a long-term job search. It’s a difficult process at the best of times and can be stressful, especially if you’re facing rejection or not making it through the screening process – as one of the leading Guernsey recruitment agencies, it’s something we see every day. We can alleviate this by helping you refine your search, ensuring that you’re only meeting hiring managers or going to interviews that you’re a good fit for. In the long-term, this is a great way of reducing your own stress whilst improving your chances.
Consistent support: Job searches can be overwhelming, especially if you’re moving into a new field or you’ve only recently graduated. We understand how competitive the Guernsey jobs market is and why you might need support. This is why we’re always available to help, whether you need help with preparation – such as interview prep or assistance with writing your CV – or you just want honest, concise feedback about your chances of success. It’s why we’ve positioned ourselves as a truly people-led recruitment agency for Guernsey, where we’re not led by placements but led by finding your dream role.
