PUBLIC EMPLOYMENT SERVICES
In this kind of employment services we are mostly talking about a state own agency that provides employment assistance and also give unemployment compensations. This employment assistance mostly consist of any available job position, where the job is what is required for the job and who is mostly needed for the job and job counseling. This counseling service is used to screen individuals for the employers.

PRIVATE EMPLOYMENT SERVICES
Well you should know by now that anything private works for money and profit, so this private services they work for money either from the applicants or from the employers and I must say there are a couple of large numbers of agencies nationwide who offer this kind of services they mainly specialize in the financial, technical and scientific fields and they are there mostly for the employers, what I mean is that they are they to serve the interest of the employers mostly than the applicants because employers mostly pay the placement fee for representing their firm. This agencies have one major thing that place then ahead of the public services and that lead is that you can get a job lead that you can not find at the public services, but this private services are costly and they don’t all provide the same quality of services, one firm may be better than another and you may see a job listing in one firm that is not in another. Dealing with this private agencies should be handled with care and make sure you understand their billing structure. Have this at the front of your mind when searching for this kind of services that the internet is filled with both honest and dishonest people so be careful of scammers and make sure you do your research very well before you approach any agency.
