Unless you are top quality and going only for MNC or banking grad/mgt programs, I don't think it is advisable to avoid recruitment agents.
A lot of staffing for low level entry level executive jobs are outsourced to these agents, ignoring them totally will effectively wipe out 80% of the exec jobs out there and make your job search much harder.
Besides if you already graduate without a job, what loss is there to approach the agents? Are you really so busy that you can't take a phone call or make a trip down their office even if some of them don't turn up anything useful?
