In Devon we are lucky to have a extensive range of excellent local recruiters from both direct employers (businesses who employ their staff directly) to recruitment agencies (who find candidates on behalf of their clients) both of whom offer a range of good opportunities.



Devon Recruitment Agencies


The Devon area has the advantage of a number of very helpful employment agencies who can understand to your requirements and help you to be the first to apply for the vacancies you want. Recruitment agencies can really increase your chances of finding and, more vitally, getting that ideal.


Recruitment agencies can also make sure you are 'thinking outside the box'. Have you considered using the skills you have achieved and using them to a different type of position? Recruitment agencies can prove to be an essential source for job hunters.



Searching Jobs online


Remember not to underestimate the significance of the internet to your job hunt. Lots employers are relying on the internet for their recruitment needs, occasionally posting their openings on their own websites as well as jobsites such as AllDevonJobs. Sometimes this can be their only way of advertising their vacancies so be sure to exploit this vital tool.


Create a job alert and we will email you whenever a new job is available that matches your job criteria; informing you of the relevant positions so you know about them before anyone else.


Did you know employers and agencies can also use our website to search for CVs to fill their jobs? So ensure you register your CV with us so we can help bring the opportunities to you.



Useful Recruitment Advice


Job seeking can be tricky and unfortunately there will often be competition so it's important your CV creates an impact. Your CV is a prospective employers' first point of contact with you so it should be up to date and excellently presented. Your potential recruiter should be able to see straightaway your key skills are and what experience you have had. Try beginning your CV with a personal statement. This should be a few lines about you, explaining your strengths and your goals.
