There are many benefits to working with an employment agency. Here are just a few:  You will have access to a wide range of job opportunities – including positions that may not be currently open through your company or organization.  The agency can help you find the perfect position for your skills and experience, as well as match you with an employer who shares those same values.  Employment agencies typically charge lower fees than hiring contractors directly yourself, so it’s often cheaper overall – even if you only use them once in a while.
