When you think of a recruitment consultancy you probably think of the ones you see on the high street like Adecco and Office Angels. But you may not have realised there are many different types of consultancies, and working for one of them could prove a very lucrative career choice.
As well as the broader recruitment agencies (placing everyone from HGV drivers to daffodil pickers in Cornwall into the right job), there are highly specialised companies which place people in IT or banking positions and find specific roles for everyone from accountants to the chairman of a FTSE 50 company.
Some recruitment agencies focus purely on graduates, including the Graduate Recruitment Company (GRC) and the Graduate Recruitment Bureau (GRB).
