I recently worked with a recruiter from Robert Half for a position they contacted me about but I ended up not getting an offer. Recruiter mentioned that if I am interested in other job listings they can help me get more information, etc. My question for you all, what are the pros/cons of getting them involved with getting more info about listings I see? The experience I had with RH was mostly positive. I think the negatives were with the company and not RH.

Oh that’s nice of them lol. Most recruiters will ghost you if you didn’t get chosen for the next round lol. That said, some of them may actually be invested in placing you (i.e they see potential in placing you eventually/something external happened that resulted in you not getting the offer). Seems like you found a good person. Stick with him/her. The pro with them is they take all the admin tasks of coordinating with employers, etc. you basically just have to interview and sign the offer letter. They have incentive to get you as much $$$ as possible as that’s how they’re compensated. Con is they will ghost you if you’re not marketable/weaker profile/ don’t get through the next rounds.

Just wanted to post an update! This recruiter actually just helped me land an awesome role with an awesome company!! He sent my resume to his contact there and they had been thinking about creating a new position and I accepted their offer within a week! 25% raise and all my other needs are met! So thankful for my recruiter! Peace out PA!
