Employment Consultant

An Employment Consultant finds suitable applicants to match a vacant job position. You might advertise available positions and interview applicants. You might also carry out any necessary assessments or testing. Employment Consultants also work with employers to determine what they are looking for in an employee and may negotiate details like wages, leave and working conditions.

Employment Consultants need strong personal skills and you should be able to liaise with employers and job applicants. You should be very organised and have excellent time management skills. Employment Consultants need to be good communicators and be able to work with people from a range of backgrounds.
