Why am I hearing from multiple recruiters?

When working with a recruitment agency like 24 Seven, you will be considered for all the jobs, clients, and industries being supported by all of our recruiters at that time, which means you may hear from more than one recruiter.

If you’ve worked with staffing agencies before, you may sense the trend that each agency works differently. What works for one agency may not work for the other, but we wanted to clear the air of any questions you have about working with 24 Seven. One of our most frequently asked questions is “why do I hear from multiple recruiters for different roles?”

Working with a full-time or freelance recruiter expands your network and allows you to further develop your skills as a candidate while you search for your perfect role. Often, when you meet with a recruiter they won’t have an opportunity in-line with your experience or what you are looking for right then. But, it is always a great idea to make the connection so there is already an established relationship when the perfect role comes up.

All recruitment agencies operate differently. For agencies with candidate ownership (each candidate is paired with one recruiter), you are limited to the jobs on your assigned recruiter’s desk. When working with a staffing agency like 24 Seven, you will be considered for all the jobs, clients, and industries being supported by all of our recruiters at that time (not just the roles on the desk of the first recruiter you met with). Our recruiters share resources throughout the whole company, you are also able to explore opportunities and be contacted for roles on a national/global scale and not just in local market. 

Finding the perfect job match is all about timing, but the opportunity to work with multiple recruiters on different roles, is like being able to throw your hat (or resume) in the ring multiple times.  Ready to start your job search with a recruiter?
