One false impression of employment agencies is that they simply place workers in positions as soon as they become available. Employment agencies actually take a great deal of time and care in placing an employee in a position. This is because they want that employee to succeed and become a long-term staff member for the company in which they were placed. The more successful a worker is in a temporary position, the more an employment agency’s reputation goes up. Companies are most likely to hire employment agencies with a record of providing dependable workers.
