What you should not do to a recruiter:
Recruiters are in business to staff individuals. By no means should you speak with a recruiter, then circumvent that recruiter and go directly to the company. Even though I don't love recruiters who work with recent college graduates, this gives you no right to go directly to the company. Business ethics are not stressed enough in some classes, but if you want to be successful, learn them quickly.
Working at a recruiting firm:
Just like any other industry, working at a recruiting firm can be either rewarding or unchallenging and uneventful.
The typical day at a recruiting firm consists of doing research on your clients, gathering pertinent rà ©sumà ©s and interviewing candidates. If you decide to work at a recruiting firm, make sure that you are not staffing an industry which you are not interested in. Also, if a recruiting firm wants you to cold-call potential customers, decline the position. Nobody in an HR division has time for this. Make sure the recruiting firm has a good business plan.
