When choosing a recruitment agency, it can be hard. There are so many to choose from! However, we would always recommend using a niche recruitment agency. The obvious reason first and foremost is in choosing one that is a specialist, they understand your industry and the specific skills needed for success. From a candidates perspective, a niche agency are also more aware of market trends and will probably have more access to a larger pool of companies within that specialist sector. On the flip side, if you are an employer and struggling to find talent, a specialist agency will tend to have a larger talent pool and understand job specifications much better than a generalist making the process easier!

More and more companies are finding it difficult to find the best talent and time and money is of the essence.
