Script
- An employment agency is any legal entity that matches employers and employment candidates. Various agencies may be grouped on the basis how they are paid.
- The governments finance public employment agencies. In addition to matching employers and future employees, they usually offer free-of-charge assistance with resumes, career counseling, and vocational training. Some of them recruit for publicly-funded jobs. These agencies may or may not be parts of the government employment offices.
- Recruitment agencies are paid by employment candidates. 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 of the newly-employed.
- Placement agencies are paid by employers. 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 staffing firms as the agencies as well. These firms act as employers. They hire employees directly, usually under the contingency condition, and then sell their services to their customers.
Recruiter Tools is the successor lectio.
