A recent article posted on CareerBuilder explains why it can take so long to hear from an employer in the initial steps of the job application/interview process (http://www.careerbuilder.com/Article/CB-1336-Job-Search-Why-Dont-Employers-Call-Me-Back/). It is true that some job postings have such a high response rate that it is nearly impossible for employers to respond to each candidate individually. This comes to the point that working with a staffing agency can alleviate some of the anxiety associated with waiting and wondering.
The first step would be to make sure you are working with the appropriate staffing agency. Each company has a specific market of individuals they specialize in assisting. Whether it's a career focus or your experience level, each characteristic should be considered when choosing an agency that is right for you.
Once you have chosen an agency that fits your needs, you will increase your odds of starting the interviewing process with that company. With staffing executives on your side you will never have to go to an interview wondering when you will hear back from an employer. This work is done by your recruiter, who in turn, will be in contact with you with any feedback.
If you are in search of a business related career and have 0-5 years of post-college work experience, Career Professionals could be the right agency for you. Submit your resume to http://www.gocpi.com/jobs/apply.php to find out.
