One – us!
Registering with multiple agencies for permanent work can cause problems. If you are a conveyancing solicitor in Manchester, looking for positions in Manchester City Centre, there are about 50 firms you could apply to for work. If you register with 5 agencies, at least three of these may well send either your full CV, anonymous details or a briefing letter to each firm. This can cause issues. Think about registering with one agency to begin with, allow them 3 weeks to make any necessary enquiries with their clients, and then think about registering with others if unsuccessful. If you live in a remote area, such as North Devon, North Lincolnshire or the Lake District, we would recommend allowing at least 4 weeks before registering with anyone else.
