If you are looking for a job, or if your company is looking to hire, there are a number of employment and recruitment agencies in Penang. They also act as head hunters for professionals and high-level workers to fill specialized positions in the Penang job market.
Whether you are seeking employment or seeking to employ, the use of a recruitment agency means you can expect to pay either an upfront fee or a percentage of the initial-month salary to the agency. The advantage of using an agency is the larger pool of vacancies for job seekers, and larger selection of candidates for employers. The agency will also be able to provide useful advice regarding salary scale, salary expectation, benefits, and so on.
Listed below are some of the better-known recruitment agencies in Penang, in alphabetical order. Most of them are concentrated in the business parks of I-Avenue and Krystal Point, the two places with outlets providing auxiliary support to the Bayan Lepas Free Industrial Zone, the main source of employment opportunities in Penang. The best way to initiate contact is to either give them a call or pay them a visit during office hours (which is usually between 10:00 am to 4:00 pm). The map below gives you an idea of their location.
If you operate a recruitment agency, or any other form of business in Malaysia or Singapore, you may add your business to this directory for a one-time fee, making it easier for people to find you, when they are seeking products and services provided by your business.

About this website
Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.
While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
