How Working with a Recruiter Can Supercharge Your Job Search

These days, job hunters have more avenues than ever when it comes to looking for work. The days of nothing to go on but word of mouth, a sign in the window, and a firm handshake are long gone, replaced by LinkedIn, search engines, digital portfolios, and numerous job-posting websites. And with today's modern global economy, your competition has access to all the same tools – making it you against literally an entire world of competitors.

But you don't have to go it alone. A great way to level the playing field is to enlist the services of a skilled recruiter on your personal team. Read on for four ways that working with a recruiter can supercharge your job search – and how our team and CyberCoders can help you in finding a job you love.

Get Highly Connected

Your professional network may be good. But is developing it literally your full-time occupation? A good recruiter has numerous contacts across multiple industries and locales. When you're working with a recruiter to find a job, this leverage is available to you.

At CyberCoders, our recruiters draw on a wide-ranging network built through over 20 years of experience. We have an extensive database of contacts and can put you forward as a candidate for openings that may not be publicly advertised.

Receive Knowledgeable Advocacy

Presenting yourself to potential employers over and over again can be exhausting. Neither of you knows each other and many people find lauding their own quality as a candidate uncomfortable. With a recruiter on your side, employers are hearing from an advocate instead – an industry expert who's already convinced of your viability as a candidate. And if it's a recruiter they've had good results from before, it's one whose opinion they already know and trust.

At CyberCoders, our recruiters have already placed nearly 40 thousand candidates in positions across the country and in every industry.

Cast A Wider Net and Do it Faster

Quality recruiters know who's hiring and may even know of industries and positions you're qualified for that hadn’t occurred to you. They also have the time and resources to submit you to more places faster. While you're at home filling out yet another automated job history form with information that's already on your resume, a skilled recruiter may have already been able to send your credentials to scores of potential employers. Depending on your situation, this quality alone may set it apart as the best way to find a job.

CyberCoders recruiters are fast! We can often put well-qualified candidates straight through to hiring managers in just a few hours.

Get A Coach In Your Corner

Professional recruiters literally look for jobs for a living. With one on your side, you have a coach in your corner who understands the ins and outs of your target industry and exactly what employers are looking for.

Our recruiters at CyberCoders include experts in a wide variety of industries who understand that your career is more to you than just a job. We have the knowledge and experience to help you prepare and understand industry norms and advise you on negotiations for the terms that matter most to you – be it salary, benefits, or personal flexibility.
