Am a fashion recruiter myself in South Africa, and guess the problems are similar here - except that our population is not on the scale that you have in the States - I would suggest that you request that your recruiter has a photo of you on their database, a collection of your work (if you are in design, graphic) and of course your choose specality. Make sure they are on programs like "skype" for easy access and if they run a network-worked database - that way you can have access to all their jobs and can apply directly to their clients? That is the way I see fashion recruiting happening in the future......you would need to be proactive as well. Build up a relationship with your favourite recruiter - let them get to know you, your work etc. We as recruiters try to have this unique relationship with our canidates - it makes "comebacks" for us and them easier when they know you and you them... Just a suggestion - great article... So sorry that you appear to have fashion recruiters from H-ll.

I've just recently started using recruiters and some of them don't look over your resume clearly enough. They don't make sure that you are fit for that particular position. They just see your job title and take it from there. I ended up going to interviews and realizing that I'm not fit for that position. I just killed my relationship with that particular company thanks to them. I appreciate the ones that do pay attention to detail, but the rest are just a waste of time. I agree 100%.
