Employment Agencies



Published
There are three main types of employment agencies: public agencies operated by federal, state, or local governments; agencies associated with nonprofit organizations; and privately owned agencies. Every state has a public, state-run employment service agency. The U.S. Department of Labor supports these agencies, through grants and through other assistance such as a nationwide computerized job bank.

Similarly the DOL’s CareerOneStop enables agency counselors to advise applicants about available jobs in other states as well. Private employment agencies are important sources of clerical, white-collar, and managerial personnel. They charge fees (set by state law and posted in their offices) for each applicant they place. Most are fee-paid jobs, in which the employer pays the fee.
