Pros
I worked with Brittney to find a position in the legal industry. She took the time to understand my strengths, short/long term goals, and compensation and culture expectations, and was a solid advocate for me. She was also great about keeping an eye out for a variety of opportunities that could be a good fit for me - I ended up landing a position I would not have found and would not have occurred to me to look at otherwise. So far I am loving it and getting the experience and industry exposure I was looking for. Brittney was very communicative throughout the search and hiring process and overall I had a great experience!
Cons
You do make a bit less when you work with recruiting agencies. However if you're looking to get your foot in the door somewhere and find opportunities you wouldn't have access to otherwise, I'd say it's worth it.
