Script

An employment agency is any legal entity that matches employers and employment candidates. These agencies represent either (a) employers when dealing with workers or (b) workers when dealing with employers.
Various agencies may be grouped on the basis who pays for their services.
The governments finance public employment agencies. Some of them recruit for publicly-funded jobs. These agencies may or may not be parts of the government employment offices. In addition to matching employers and future employees, they usually offer free-of-charge assistance with résumés, career counseling, and vocational training.
Employment candidates pay for the services of recruitment agencies. Because of high probability of scam, many governments require these agencies to be licensed. The normal agencies rarely charge in advance; they may retrieve their fees from the future earnings when their customer has been already hired.
Employers pay for the services of placement agencies. These agencies usually specialize in some high-volume areas of temporary employment such as babysitting or housekeeping. They either send the candidates to their potential employers, who hire or don't hire the sent candidates.
Some consider workforce dealers as the agencies as well. These organizations represent neither employers nor workers. The dealers act as employers. They hire employees directly, usually under the contingency condition, and then sell their services to their customers.
