You’re here because you’re looking for a job. Not just any job – you want a change. You want to feel the sand in your toes and go hiking on the weekends, but you also want to keep doing what you love most: your profession.

Except the job you’re in now isn’t cutting it for you anymore. You don’t feel inspired, you are run down and exhausted, and most of all, your passion is dwindling. A dangerous combination.

You want to look for a new job but you’re not sure where to start. You try scrolling through the job boards, all the words eventually merging into one big mess of buzzwords. None of these jobs are standing out for you, and they certainly don’t have enough information included for you to make an informed decision on if you want to pursue it.

You need guidance. Someone to help you through this process.

You need a recruiter.

So, what does a recruiter do exactly, and why should you bother getting in touch with one?

1. A recruiter is like your personal job shopper
   Recruiters are there to shop around for the best possible opportunity for you. At CMR, our consultants take your every want and need into consideration – your dream location, your experience, your qualifications, your lifestyle preferences, and even your weekend hobbies. They then take that information and tailor it into a job that is the perfect fit for you.
   
2. A recruiter has insider knowledge
   Recruiters are up to date with all the current market trends and insights. They know and understand what fields are getting the most money right now, as well as the most in-demand skills needed to get you the right job.
   
3. A recruiter has access to jobs which are not yet listed
   Recruiters have strong relationships with companies who often hand the recruiter a position to fill that has not yet gone to market. If you fit the role, they will put you forward – no mindlessly scrolling through job boards or metaphorically fighting applicants from the general public for your CV to be recognized. This way, it is guaranteed that the potential employer will see your application, and you will be considered.
   
4. A recruiter can offer invaluable advice
   Recruiters have seen it all – the good and the bad. They are well equipped to help you with creating a standout CV, preparing for your interview, and how to handle the tough questions employers may ask during the process. They can also offer you feedback if you happen to be unsuccessful for a role, so that you can understand other perspectives and gain a deeper understanding of what to improve for next time.
   
5. A recruiter does all the hard work for you
   When you think of all the time and effort that goes into applying for a job, it is understandable that you start to get bogged down with all the details. Recruiters act as a middleman for you – they take care of the whole process from start to finish.
   
   From the very beginning they are your advocate, putting you through to their clients and finding the right fit for you. Once the right fit is found and you’ve been offered a position (congratulations!), they will oversee the contract signing and all the onboarding documents and procedures that need to happen before you can start. They really are the whole package!

All in all, a recruiter can be a lot of things: an advocate, a champion, a library of knowledge, a professional, and even sometimes – a friend.
