Recruitment Agencies
As an employee, I dislike them very much. I'd rather know where I'm looking, see the company and just meet with them first. Plus, if you are hourly, the agencies take a hugs cut of the rate you'd get. If you get stuck with an agent you don't like then you can miss out on a lot of possibilities that they are recruiting for. I don't like "middle men" in general.
As an employer, I like them. The agency actually employs the person, not me. I don't have to pay insurance, social security, nothing. Plus, if I don't like them I can send them back and have the agency send me a fresh face. They spend the time testing and interviewing to weed out the worthless ones. I only ever have to meet with the top half of people.

They weed out who they THINK are the best one's.....
I worked for a company where "Verbal Customer Service" was the most important thing...the agency send people who were experts on different computer packages, but couldnt actually hold a conversation with another person.....the agencies (and a lot of companies) are too focused on how good you are with a computer and forget about basic verbal dialogue. I have always learned whatever computer packages my employer used, but im not an expert and because I havent used this or that one, ive missed out on some roles that i could do blindfolded because the agency didnt put me forward......
