Industry Insights

The job search can be an arduous process, leaving you feeling like you’re sending resumes off into the far edges of space. It can be frustrating and disappointing.

But it’s possible you’re missing out on the best tool that could not only speed the process of finding a great new job, but can help you land one with even better pay than you’re asking?

Consider working with a digital recruiter.

Here’s how a digital recruiter can help you get not just a better job, but better pay:

1. They know the industry.
   
   That means they know what skills are most in demand, who’s hiring, how much a company is likely to pay for the position you’re trying to get, etc. It’s like having your own personal James Bond, ready to use their insider information to help you gain the biggest advantage when you apply for a position. Speaking of that…
   
2. They know which jobs are best suited for your skills.
   
   You might have one idea of what kind of job you’re looking for. That might be great, but you might be selling yourself short! A digital recruiter will be able to tell you what kinds of jobs are possible for someone with your background, experience, talents, skills, certifications and interests. It could open a whole new world for you, with different types of jobs that could be a perfect fit — something you might have never considered before.
   
3. They can open the world to you.
   
   Many people are still considering jobs only within their geographic location, or for cities where they’d be willing to move for the right opportunity. Digital recruiters can expand your search: They’re experts in knowing about jobs that offer remote employment. Your search is no longer limited! The right job might not be in your city, but that doesn’t mean you can’t apply and be a perfect fit for a company on the other side of the country, all without packing a single box. (Unless you want to, of course.)
   
4. They’ll guide you through the whole process and offer advice along the way.
   
   A recruiter is like a highly specialized guidance counselor, but with experience and accolades to back up their advice. Recruiters know what companies are looking for, so they can help you make sure your resume is properly written and ordered, highlighting the aspects of your experience and training that will make you most attractive to potential employers. They can help you prepare for interviews and will put a priority on your resume when speaking with their clients. In part, that’s because…
   
5. Getting you a job is their top priority.
   
   Recruiters are hired by companies to find good job candidates. They get paid by their company clients in order to find talented people who will be a good fit for their organization. And they work for you for free, because their clients pay them, typically a percentage of the salary agreed upon by the candidate they hire. Therefore, if you get a great job with higher pay, your recruiter will have made their client happy and they’ll get a better paycheck for it. It’s a win-win for you both!
