By Robert Half on August 23, 2018 at 1:00pm

Do you feel frustrated in your job hunt? Are your application materials going unanswered? Are your interviews followed by a “thanks, but no thanks” email? Have you reached a point where you want to scream, "Please, someone, just find me a job!"

If you answered yes to any of the above, then you could probably use some assistance.

How can you find a recruiter for a job? Turn to a reputable recruiting agency like Robert Half, where you can gain a skilled and experienced representative in the job market.

Expert help in finding a job

Working with a recruiter is almost as simple as saying, "Please find me a job." Once you reach out, a recruiter can act as your liaison to hiring managers, share industry information and career resources that support your job hunt, and even coach you on the finer points of assembling your job-search materials.

Take a look at just 10 of the ways a specialized recruiting agency can help boost your search for the ideal job:

1. Connect you with prospects

Robert Half recruiters are tapped into the job market in your area. They know who's hiring (and who's planning to expand), even if those jobs aren't publicly posted yet. If there are openings for jobs that fit your talents and interests, a recruiter can often help get your foot in the door.

2. Act as your personal guide

Many Robert Half recruiters have professional experience in your field, so they understand your passion for your work. Once you register with Robert Half, you'll be connected with a recruiter who's committed to finding the right job for you.
