Good luck in your search.
IMX, most firms don't use the services of an outside recruiting agency because they don't want to pay the fees involved.
Over the years I worked for many of the national chains and can tell you that you should apply directly with them via the local DM first, then move past them if possible to the home office for possible national consideration.
The ability to relocate (first move's costs are usually your responsibility) makes you easier to hire, as well--but be prepared to be offered a lame or troubled store at first with the expectation that you will have to 'turn it around' before you advance to the next level.
Prepare to be very flexible in pay negotiations. I remember companies that reported high earnings in the Trade press pleading poverty when it came time to pay me money.
You will work hours that will kill a galley slave. Ever wonder why the Mall stores all seem to have ever-changing youthful management?
