00:00:04,780 --> 00:00:09,850

All cool so in this module we're going to level up your thinking about how to source opportunities particularly



2

00:00:09,850 --> 00:00:12,160

how to use a brain in the labor market.



3

00:00:12,330 --> 00:00:15,350

We the recruiters and staffing majors.



4

00:00:15,490 --> 00:00:21,580

So these people basically on the one hand are interviewing and checking their references for dozens



5

00:00:21,580 --> 00:00:23,900

or even hundreds of candidates at one time.



6

00:00:23,980 --> 00:00:27,740

On the other hand they're staying in touch with regional employers.



7

00:00:27,820 --> 00:00:31,660

Dozens even hundreds of organizations at one time.



8

00:00:31,660 --> 00:00:34,570

So let's talk a little bit about how this works.



9

00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:38,640

Now a staffing manager is a temporary staffing agent.



10

00:00:38,650 --> 00:00:44,760

So basically what they do is they're going to send you to work at a client firm for a specific short



11

00:00:44,770 --> 00:00:45,900

period of time.



12

00:00:45,910 --> 00:00:50,620

However there is a chance that you and the client can get along really well and the client will say



13

00:00:50,650 --> 00:00:55,900

hey we want to hire a person full time and you'll convert into a full time employee.



14

00:00:55,990 --> 00:01:00,520

So staffing managers can ultimately help you find full time work.



15

00:01:00,610 --> 00:01:05,890

Now on the other hand you have recruiting managers sometimes they're called headhunters and these people



16

00:01:05,890 --> 00:01:13,300

are placing you directly on their client's payroll meaning that you go directly to full time employment



17

00:01:13,300 --> 00:01:14,170

with their clients.



18

00:01:14,170 --> 00:01:19,300

So these interview rounds tend to be more rigorous and the process is a little bit slower whereas the



19

00:01:19,300 --> 00:01:21,640

staffing manager process is really fast.



20

00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:21,880

All right.



21

00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:23,200

So let's take mark here.



22

00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:25,300

Now let's say that Mark is a recent graduate.



23

00:01:25,300 --> 00:01:32,500

He does a little bit of Internet search he finds stuff in his area and he goes in for an interview what's



24

00:01:32,500 --> 00:01:35,970

going to happen is there going to be interviewing Mark for his skill sets.



25

00:01:35,980 --> 00:01:39,180

They're not actually going to be interviewing him like they would hire him directly.



26

00:01:39,220 --> 00:01:43,620

But what they need to do is they need to know how to sell Mark to their clients.



27

00:01:43,630 --> 00:01:47,370

They're also going to help coach Mark in his interviewing skills.



28

00:01:47,380 --> 00:01:48,520

So that's one good thing.



29

00:01:48,630 --> 00:01:53,230

Staffing managers and recruiters are good partners for you you can ask them what could I have done better



30

00:01:53,470 --> 00:01:55,670

and that helps you on your job search generally.



31

00:01:55,750 --> 00:02:01,630

Now what's going to happen is the agent or the recruiter is going to go out and broadcast Mark's profile



32

00:02:01,810 --> 00:02:08,080

to potential clients of theirs who might like to hire Mark and could use his skills if any of these



33

00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:13,450

leads come up positive and often they do then they'll give Mark a call and Mark can go and start working



34

00:02:13,450 --> 00:02:17,430

for these organizations on a temporary or maybe a full time basis.



35

00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:22,220

So that's why agency recruiters can be a really powerful asset for you on your job hunt.
