We also acquire new clients for recruitment agencies

Personnel and employment agencies are an integral part of the modern labor market. They represent a bridge between employees and  potential employers. They help job seekers find their dream jobs and companies identify promising candidates.

There are currently around 2,000 recruitment agencies in the Czech Republic (from smaller local players to branches of major international companies) and approximately the same number of employment agencies. Along with low unemployment, this naturally creates a highly competitive environment.

Personnel and employment agencies must therefore constantly remember their business development . Only those that can reach a sufficient number of applicants and companies (future employers) will survive on the market.

Many of them were helped by Intedat.

So if you have a job or personnel agency and would like to get new, attractive business opportunities, skip straight to the end of the article or contact us for a free consultation .

We will now look at two terms from the world of personnel studies, which at first glance may look like synonyms – but they are not.

Personal vs. employment agency – what’s the difference?

Although the terms “recruitment agency” and “employment agency” are sometimes confused, in reality there is quite a big difference between them:

• A personnel agency (known as “personnelka”) searches for suitable candidates for specific job positions for individual companies based on their specifications. It is important that the agency does not conclude any employment contract with the employee . An employment law relationship arises only between an employee and a specific company.
• An employment agency (or “employment agency”) employs job applicants themselves and then provides them to companies that have expressed an interest in them. According to the law, agency workers should have comparable conditions to regular employees.

Personnel agencies from the point of view of applicants and companies

Using the services of a staffing agency can be beneficial for both the job seeker and the potential employer.

Benefits for applicants

Staffing agencies have a great overview of the labor market and often have long-term contacts with employers. Therefore, in many cases, they learn about interesting job offers even before these offers appear, for example, on job portals.

In addition, experts from staffing agencies can, based on their experience, recommend to the applicant a position that he might not even consider himself.

There are also specialized personnel (or employment) agencies for foreigners that help workers from both the European Union and third countries find employment. In addition, they often help companies with the necessary administration.

And if, on the other hand, a Czech citizen is attracted to work abroad (for example, work in Germany, Austria or the USA), using the services of a personnel or employment agency may be the easiest solution for him.

Benefits for companies

Finding quality employees in some fields is currently an almost superhuman task. This is also why many companies outsource the recruitment of employees to personnel agencies.

At the same time, some recruitment agencies also offer employment agency services, so they can provide their clients with, for example:

• Agency employment , thanks to which companies can, among other things, easily cover seasonal fluctuations
• Recruitment – ​​searching for and addressing candidates, conducting selection procedures, etc.
• A personnel audit that will show how to increase company performance and improve human resource management
• Outplacement , i.e. care for laid-off employees, which contributes to maintaining the good name of the company
