Abstract: In Pakistan after the independence year 1947, no organization was working but in 1960’s the first recruitment agency was introduced considering the key issue in order to achieve better opportunity for both employer and employees. In this competitive era every employer wants a suitable person who has enough knowledge and skills of any required job and every potential employee or working staff wants an appropriate job or opportunity which can lead to them proper job satisfaction. There are some gapes as described in justification. In this some questions are arising like. What are the factors influencing the employee’s job placement through recruitment agencies in Pakistan? The answers to such questions are still being debated. Sample size the researcher used is 227 employees working in the organization. Data analysis technique was used multiple linear regression , This study contains factors influencing on employee’s job placement through recruitment in Karachi , many firms was selected to know the impact of this research survey, after collecting the data it is observed that two of five independent variables are failed to reject null hypothesis , this result shows that people are not satisfied with the cost they incurred for finding the jobs through recruitment agencies as well as people believe that there is no such appropriate job match through the agencies , where as in survey remaining variables’ results are seen that people are agree that recruitment agents are professionals , they reply quickly and they have proper employee screening method . I recommend to the readers that we have lack of understanding to cater people for their jobs, if some people take good steps and open a true recruitment agencies so many people will get good opportunities and get their best job match, employers do not need to find employees in dark and employers specially fresh graduates and masters would not need to be worry about their job.
