I remember to have read in these forums that, chances of securing a job will be more if we can emphasise skills on the resume based on the job description. This way we may have to tweak the resume every time we apply for a different requirement. For me this is perfectly valid.

However one of my freinds in Australia suggests that, Employment agencies usually stores the resume in their database and would be reluctant to process the profile if they find change in the content between two different versions of the same person's resume they would have received at different times for different requirement. Can some one suggest if this is true ? If so how do I handle this situation and still apply for two different positions with different job descriptions?

Also can one some one suggest good IT job agencies ?

It may depend on the agency. I was with an agency a while back (not IT) and they actually suggested that I tweak my CV to emphasise some skills.
