Career Agencies: Finding a Good Match

If you're one of the many designers and artists that freelance for a living, you may want to consider enlisting the help of a career agency. If you decide to try one out, be sure to select a place that specializes in the creative fields. Chances are good that they will have already established relationships with companies that have the type of work you're trying to find. If you go with an agency that's geared more toward other career fields, they might not be able to locate work for you as easily.

How can you tell if the agency is a good match? The first step is to visit their website and see what it can tell you. If you like what you see, make an appointment to speak with someone there and prepare a list of questions so that you get the answers you need. A good talent agency will be able to tell you specifics about what it is that they do and the kinds of jobs they can connect you with. Don't be afraid to shop around until you find a place that feels like it is a good fit.
