I've been considering using a staffing agency to help with my job search, but I don't know much about them in general. Has anyone here used them before? Were they helpful? And if not, what other options would you recommend instead?

I left Cengage and now work in staffing and recruiting.
I think it depends on what your job is. If it is accounting, finance, hr - I think it could be super helpful.
Staffing/Recruiting agencies get job orders and then fill them, so it's not guaranteed that you will get a job. If your background fits the bill of what an organization is looking for, they will submit you.
Now could also be a time to look into transitioning into a new career (depending on what you are currently doing)
