If you have ever held a job fair, you know that it can be expensive and time-consuming. You need to pay for the location where you are going to have it in most instances. You need copies of applications, information about the company, and you need to have printed swag as a way of attracting people to your table. Particularly when you are at a job fair where there are many other companies, you have to compete to get the best of the best to where you are. This means having a better booth and more “stuff” to hand out – and this all comes at a cost. IT recruiters can work in a more effective way for you. By using IT recruiters, you never have to hold another job fair again. You won't have to waste your time sitting around, collecting resumes, and answering questions about your business. Instead, you can proceed with business as usual while a recruiter works behind the scenes to find the people that you need. The recruiter is going to do all the work, including finding the people and conducting the interviews. This way you can save your HR budget for more important things, like training your employees instead of buying pens for people to be lured to your job fair booth. You also don't have to worry about taking impeccable notes. If you ever had a great conversation with someone, took their resume, and then couldn't find it once you got back to the office, you know the frustrations that can come from job fairs. There is simply too much going on and the chaos can cause you to miss out on some very important things. Instead of trying to remember who you talked with and make piles out of the resumes you do and don't want to look at further, you can hand the entire responsibility over to IT recruiters. They are in the business because they know what they are doing and they can make short work out of finding you the right person. They may hold their own job fair or they will post ads or use their own contacts. Regardless of how they come up with the candidates, you won't have to worry about those details because the recruiter has promised to find someone for you. All you have to do is narrow it down to a single person out of the final resumes that are given to you. Job fairs are time consuming, expensive, and chaotic. You also don't want to get into competitions with the other businesses simply because someone has a good resume. It's best not to create a free for all with your company. There are better ways to find qualified individuals and IT recruiters know these ways. They can be more affordable than conducting a job fair and it will result in less work for you as well as the ability to find someone faster, allowing you to fill the position and move on with your job.
