  • In this first episode of 'The Job Centre', the team are under pressure to hit their targets for the month and Jane's newest recruit Phil is feeling the pressure. When a big job comes in that would earn him his target in one hit, does he have the experience to pull it off?
    In 'The Job Centre' we follow larger-than-life boss Jane Vincent, who owns one of the liveliest Recruitment Agencies in Bradford. Along with her straight-talking team, they're tasked with finding jobs for the extraordinary characters who walk through the agency's doors.

      I think it works like the "massive contract" is thrown out amongst all staff members, then whoever can get a client to hire a person through the recruitment agency has essentially earned the recruitement agency £10K or whatever.
      They need to earn so much per month for the agency. They can either land one big contract from a specialist or a lot of little contracts for warehouses and casual manual labour employers.
      The new guy is competing for that big contract (maybe to get some commission on top), but he is not the only guy to try to get the contract for the agency. It's just whoever gets it.
      Like a pool of sharks fighting over a corpse.

    She's not the best manager, i feel like she's VERY passive aggresive, not very supportive, embaresses people, puts too much preasure on her staff, and also she stares people down whilst they are trying to work, if someone did that to me, i wouldn't be able to focus properly, i'd be far too nervous to excel!

    These agencies undermine fair wages. When first set up employment agencies were ran through a governmental body. The person being employed didn’t come with overheads, you were placed and the company only had to pay for your labour, not a middle man. These agencies push up labour costs, yet those who are employed through them don’t see the benefit.
    Bring back non for profit agencies supervised through a system not geared to exploit the workforce.
    My eldest sons aunt set up Morestaff in Luton. She’s a multi millionaire, all earned through this system. She used to work for Blue Arrow, but left and basically stole their client list. Through this kind of Chicanery and greed workers earn roughly 33% of the agency’s charges on long placements.. That’s money which has no place being wasted on a third party doing none of the labour.

      job centres r govt run to get people who r on benefits get jobs. Theyt stop ur benefits if u dont apply fopr a set amount of jobs each week.
      Employment agents have nothing to do with job centres as they have clients who ask them to find people to do temp jobs usualy at short notice.
      some treat their potential employees better than others. Some only care about filling jobs and pay minimum wage. others pay higher wages and also pay sick pay and holiday pay.
      I worked through manpower for years. They had jobs for me nearly every day. They paid 2 weeks holiday pay a year and 14 days sick pay a year. they also paid us the same wage as the full timers of the company paid their staff rather than minium wage. other agencies i worked through only gave me jobs maybe once a month and the wages were really bad. IE full time the job paid £3.50 hr the agency only paid £1.50 hr. Manpower paid the £3.50.
      1 agency i went to gave me 1 job lasting a week, the full timers got £5.00 an hr the agency only paid 50p an hr. i quit the agency and told them to stuff their jobs lol.
      No minimum wages back then so companies could pay what they wanted. But jobs were a lot easier to get. No CV no application forms it was just walk around asking companies if they had any jobs if they did quick interview there and then and depending on what time it was even start that day.

Two days later I had to appear again for two more hours interviewed by four members of management and the one who was to become my new chef. The job you ask? Starting to study and work as a psychiatric male nurse for a far below minimum wage, 28 days per month with all sorts of shifts. I was not allowed to call in sick for the first two years without losing my job. Included in the job was a small room and three meals per day. We used to work up to 10 hours per day.

    Agencies are the dregs and no person with any career goals should use them. I have signed up with multiple over the years and not a single one resulted in any work because they expected me to just accept whatever was thrown at me. The worst one wouldn't even give me any details of the jobs - where it was, what the hourly rate was. I had specified certain areas that I had experience in, but they tried to place me in places that I specifically said I was not qualified for. In the end, I was told that my career should be treated as "trial and error", incredibly insulting to people who want/need stability. I told them I no longer needed their services, then I received a phone call the next day from another member of their "team"! They don't listen to anything you tell them. They expect you to be okay with being passed from pillar to post and be in and out of jobs. All they care about is getting your name on their books. If you work for any sort of agency, you have no self-respect.

    I used to work at the job centre (2 years ago when I was 22) and I absolutely dreaded seeing people and giving appointments. First of all, I was totally ridiculed for being ‘young’ (I do look about 18 🥴) and not knowing anything. I found it demeaning as I’m trained and I know what I’m doing. My age shouldn’t matter, I’m trying to get you a job mate. The job seekers were just really immature, unserious, frankly I don’t think they even wanted a job, just wanted to keep their Universal Credit going. They would miss job interviews, turn up late to appointments, cancel. It was literally a joke. People thought I was harsh for imposing sanctions but I’m sorry, it’s not a free for all.

    I thought this docu was what goes on in the actual job centre (s) not in recruitment agencies.

    This recruitment agency produces nothing for the country. The clients have to pay the agency and also the staff recruited. If these same clients recruit directly, their expenses will be lower, and as such they can then potentially undercut competitors who use an agency.
    Get rid of all brokers, agencies and middlemen, except in cases where there are security or confidentiality issues.

      From an employers perspective if you get someone through a recruitment agency versus hiring them straight up the difference is they are more disposable and don't have as many rights. So if you where running a business I think it may make sense to pay the employment agency.

    40:00 literally couldn't think of anywhere worse than working in a place like that.. forced excitement and over the top "fun" and incentives. No thanks 👎

    A lot of people or should I say businesses that claim to help people in fact don't and are guilty of being judgemental. The sad truth is everyone is different in this world a true individual but we are expected to follow certain "norms" i for example was born with mild autism, grew up in poverty after father became ill, told wouldn't amount to anything in life blah blah blah I can go on but been judged in part due to the autism making me come across as strange despite the jobs I have held I get praised for hard work, I went many years out of work after a near breakdown as employers rejected me as they told me I would fidget at interview, not sound confident the norms but having been through what I have such as a near breakdown after a brutal family members death that gave me PTSD again blah blah blah, but point is people out of work have a bad rep and can have far more potential than people realise, and agencies and employers like to see themselves as the hero when in fact they have their own way and happy for applicants to basically beg and act like the employers/agency is doing the person a favour by employing them at a barely livable wage and no rights and can be sacked with no notice etc, they aren't in it for you they are in it for themselves. I myself have been back in work nearly a year now and get glowing feedback its just a shame the world we are in now doesn't value its employees.

    How different from "job searching" in the 60s. Anyone could walk out of a job or get fired on a Friday and literally start a new job on Tuesday the following week aaaaaaaand with better pay!
