A human resource recruiting agency is a specialized firm that helps companies find, evaluate, and hire qualified talent. These agencies may focus on specific industries (such as tech, finance, or healthcare) or provide general recruiting services across multiple sectors. They use a combination of tools, networks, and industry experience to connect businesses with candidates who are not only technically qualified but culturally aligned.

While internal HR teams are often responsible for everything from onboarding and compliance to employee relations, recruiting agencies dedicate themselves solely to talent acquisition. This singular focus gives them an edge in speed, precision, and reach.
