All cool so in this module we're going to level up your thinking about how to source opportunities particularly
how to use a brain in the labor market.
We the recruiters and staffing majors.
So these people basically on the one hand are interviewing and checking their references for dozens
or even hundreds of candidates at one time.
On the other hand they're staying in touch with regional employers.
Dozens even hundreds of organizations at one time.
So let's talk a little bit about how this works.
Now a staffing manager is a temporary staffing agent.
So basically what they do is they're going to send you to work at a client firm for a specific short
period of time.
However there is a chance that you and the client can get along really well and the client will say
hey we want to hire a person full time and you'll convert into a full time employee.
So staffing managers can ultimately help you find full time work.
Now on the other hand you have recruiting managers sometimes they're called headhunters and these people
are placing you directly on their client's payroll meaning that you go directly to full time employment
with their clients.
So these interview rounds tend to be more rigorous and the process is a little bit slower whereas the
staffing manager process is really fast.
All right.
So let's take mark here.
Now let's say that Mark is a recent graduate.
He does a little bit of Internet search he finds stuff in his area and he goes in for an interview what's
going to happen is there going to be interviewing Mark for his skill sets.
They're not actually going to be interviewing him like they would hire him directly.
But what they need to do is they need to know how to sell Mark to their clients.
They're also going to help coach Mark in his interviewing skills.
So that's one good thing.
Staffing managers and recruiters are good partners for you you can ask them what could I have done better
and that helps you on your job search generally.
Now what's going to happen is the agent or the recruiter is going to go out and broadcast Mark's profile
to potential clients of theirs who might like to hire Mark and could use his skills if any of these
leads come up positive and often they do then they'll give Mark a call and Mark can go and start working
for these organizations on a temporary or maybe a full time basis.
So that's why agency recruiters can be a really powerful asset for you on your job hunt.
