If you are facing a particular challenge in the running of your recruitment agency, or are thinking of outsourcing services to a partner, then there are many sources of advice and information available:

Speak to colleagues to see what works for them – and what doesn’t work! There’s nothing more powerful than a personal recommendation from a trusted colleague
Do some of your own research including Google searches – it is quick and easy to check out the web sites of potential partners and suppliers
Look at industry bodies such as REC and APSCo
Consult the mainstream recruitment media including: The Recruiter, Recruitment Consultant, Recruitment International, UK Recruiter, or Recruitment Today.
Always seek advice from your accountant and business banking manager
Your local Chamber of Commerce and Business Link can often point you in the right direction for advice on specific topics
Local professional networking groups can be a good forum to meet other business owners who face similar challenges and issues to yourself
Finally don’t forget to bounce your ideas off other people in the industry you can trust and any other respected business owners – whatever their sector.
