Work Environment
Employment firm workers generally work in pleasant conditions. Their offices are designed to make a good impression on outside visitors and prospective employees, and most are modern, attractive, and nicely furnished. Employees work a 40-hour week, unless they are working on a special project. There may be some clerical work, such as typing and filing. Many agencies are small, but some can be quite large, sometimes employing more than 50 employees.
Some personnel recruiters travel widely. Recruiters visit universities and professional conferences to interview prospective employees.
