When you are applying for jobs in Qatar, chances are you will encounter some recruitment agencies during your job search. But, the question is: Are they reliable and beneficial for your application? Read on to know the answer.

What is the role of a recruitment agency?

The primary duty of recruiters is to find potential employees quickly, screen them, and send them to the potential employer. They also need to be able to handle several different clients at once in most cases.

What are the different types of job recruiters?

1. Internal recruiters for the business

- They work in house for a company and take care of all recruitment needs.

- They do not receive a commission on each employee they find for the available position.

2. Third party recruiter or headhunter

- Theys will receive commissions for every employee they find. 

The above is classified into 2 types:

Retained job recruiter - receives payment up front for the work

Contingent recruiter - receives payment after the position has been filled.

What is the difference between a job recruiter and temporary agency?

Job recruiters differ from temporary agencies or other job placement agencies in a way that they are assigned to fill top-level positions in larger corporations or in the sports industry.

Their main goal is to assist their client, the business or corporation, to find the right employee for the position.

Contrary to job placement agencies, not all job recruiters will test employees for the skills needed for the position. They may test for specific skills or they may leave those options to the hiring company.
