Introduction:

Every year thousands of students graduate out of the various colleges in the country of South Africa. A small percentage of them would go for higher studies. However, a majority of them offer themselves available in the job market. It is not that there are no pending applications in the market. That number too would run into thousands. This is the supply position. Now, let us look at the demand position. The demands of the industry are much less than the supply. This makes the competition intense. The same Charles Darwin theory of ‘The Survival of the Fittest’ applies here as well. Under such circumstances, one can register his or her name with the recruitment agencies in Durban North.

The services of these recruitment agencies:

The recruitment agencies perform the job of a bridge between the client and the candidate. They match the correct kind of candidate for the client thereby enabling the client to carry out the interviews and the other formalities. The job of the recruitment agency is to maintain the database of the clients as well as the candidates.

These recruitment agencies place advertisements in the newspapers calling for applications from interested candidates. Candidates with the right kind of knowledge and skill can apply to these posts. The agencies have the list of client’s requirements as well. They match the requirements and set up a platform from where the client can take over. The recruitment agency Durban north gains a small percentage in the bargain.

Advantages of availing their services:

In this business, all the parties gain. We shall explain how.

The clients forward their requirement to the agency. The agency either has a ready-made database of applications with them. They match the right candidate for the job and forward the same to the client. Naturally, they would give a wide range of candidates to enable the client to choose.

The client takes over the job of interviewing the candidate to suit their requirement. Once they finalize the candidate, they offer him the job.

The candidate benefits, as he gets an appointment letter from a reputed company. The Company benefits because it has scouted for the right candidate. The recruiting agency benefits because it would now receive a commission from both the parties. This is a win-win situation for all.

Precautions to take

There are hundreds of such recruiting agencies all over South Africa. The candidate would be at a loss to understand which one is genuine. He has to take the following precautions.

The internet is available for the candidate to do a research on the recruitment agency. A thorough search would separate the genuine recruitment agency in Umhlanga from the fraud ones. The candidate should check out the website for contact details. If the contact details use the common servers instead of the official ones, you have to be wary of the same.

Many recruitment agencies ask for a sum of money at the initial stages stating that they are the processing fees. In fact, this is not the practice followed by the genuine ones. They get their commission at the end of the transaction. Hence, if a recruitment agency demands money, the best thing would be to avoid it like the plague.

This is how the recruitment agencies work.
