    About Career Agents Network

    THIS IS NOT A FRANCHISE THIS IS A BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY Unemployment is big news. But it dominates the headlines so much that employment shortages in fast-growing industries go unreported. Industries such as medical, health IT, renewable energy, credit/collections, software development, and others are booming. All require individuals with very specific skills, education, and experience. While their skills are in demand, these sought after candidates are not employment professionals. They don't have the skills, time, or inclination to methodically investigate and locate the perfect position for them. They need a personal "Career Agent" capable of looking out for their best interests. You can render this type of service, representing in-demand candidates as their Career Agent and receiving fees of $15,000 to $40,000 each time you make a placement. One $15,000 placement per month is a respectable $180,000 per year, good income for being the eyes, ears, and voice of America's high-demand professionals. As a Career Agents Network Member you will gain the working knowledge you need quickly. You will have tremendous advantages over traditional recruiters who lack the infrastructure, support, and systems to learn a new industry thoroughly and quickly.

And as a Career Agent, you'll be able to represent candidates and employers in other high-growth industries, then share the fee with another Member when they place your candidate.
