One disadvantage of relying entirely on recruiting agencies is that they can only refer you to openings at organizations with which they have a contract or a working relationship.

You may believe that the job alternatives offered to you by a recruiter are not a good fit for your needs, in which case you may decide to do your own job search using a job search website.

It's worth noting that even if you apply to a job posting on a job search website, you may still have to deal with a recruiter, as many organizations, particularly those with limited human resources, engage agencies to screen prospects and introduce only those who are a suitable fit. If you want to avoid using a recruitment agency entirely, seek for advertisements that are explicitly marked as direct hire.
