Normally they will ask you to have a test first.
Depends on how professional are the recruiting company, some just sent you an online test and you can completed online.  

Some will request you write the test @ the office, then one of the recruiting manager will interview you.  According to your education and employment history, they will arrange you for interview with the right client.

I used quite a few recruiting agent.

The two that I like the most is Hays and Robert Half.
I think Robert Half have a separate division for IT recruitment..

Both of the companies almost got me a job but I managed to finalized an interview on my own.
Hays & Robert Half got me in final stage of accountant posts (different time frame)  but I was going through other interviews on my own as well.

But it doesn't hurt to work with recruitment company because they will give you advise on your resume and interview tips.  Also, you can practice your interview skill as well since you will go through quite a lot of interviews.  (well, might not be the case now since the economy is bad)

曾經有個經理同我講，如果你想要份普通工，自己係出面找，就OK。

但如果你想要份高級啲嘅工，好多大公司都唔會post 出嚟！會找獵頭公司！

所以recruitment company 有佢嘅價值嘅，但最好gone through 啲出名／大型 recruitment 公司，我真係見得太多recruit agent, 好多都唔 professional. 淨係想盡快埋你出去，根本無認真去比較邊份工岩你做！
