starting an employment agency

[JD]

Hello. I'm looking to start an employment agency in London and i'd like to hear from anyone who could help me get a template of an agencies database and spreadsheets etc. Anything to help get an idea of the day to day running of a firm from the computer.
If anyone actually works for one or knows someone who does i'd love to hear from you. Or maybe a recruitment consultant i could pay for your time.
If anyone else has heard of or seen anywhere i could get this information ( not R.E.C!) i'd very much appreciate hearing from you too.

thanks

JD

If you log on to Jobserve can't you download their database of agencies/vacancies?

That should give you a reasonable place to start.

Hi,

I was planning on starting a similar business last year but due to other commitments it never happened. However, I did design and develop a website for the business where clients can posts jobs and visitors search for them. There is still a small amount of work to be completed on the site but if you are interested in purchasing the website then I would be happy to add the final touches.

If you are interested please pm.

Hi JD,

I worked as a recruitment consultant for 4 years and then decided to become an accountant (unusual career change!) I now work in the backoffice of the same company.

I've got good experience in both sides of the business so feel free to PM me if you need any help.

Cheers
