- Paying someone $15/hr to be a recruiter as temp-to-hire is incredibly low, and this is fairly obvious and widely understood there. However, even paying your salaried recruiters less than $40k is absurd, and paying your Senior Recruiters less than $40k without commission is even more astounding. People either don't know their other options or underestimate their worth. - Expectations and goals were not clear for individuals, offices, or branches. It's something that should have been executed a long time ago. - Old-fashioned corporate culture. - Career opportunities seemed scarce as a recruiter, unless people quit. - Benefits were mediocre. PTO offered was far less than average companies. - Long hours and recruiters do not have the ability to work from home. - Did not feel valued here as an employee and did not received any feedback from management. Top Talent recruiters did a lot of work and deserve more recognition. Career Solutions recruiters don't seem to know how to do basic parts of their job and ask Top Talent recruiters to do it for them. - Little diversity throughout the company.

-The salary is a joke, lower than every other Administrative-based staffing agency (think Aerotek, Prostaff, Masterson). The offer a whopping $12-14 to start out of college, then increase you to $15 once you are 'hired on'. -We are expected to work like crazy for commissions around $200 per quarter! -They hire the recruiters based on PI's -not from recommendations or actual experience, thus you get stuck with a bunch of aggressive, snarky people in one room. These people will gossip about everything under the sun, they will exploit every personal detail you tell them to the entire company. I have listened to hundreds of personal stories about others while working here, it doesn't matter if you work in the same office or across the metro the whole lower half of the company knows what you do on the weekends and who you are dating, etc. -They also promote people based on time with company, NOT based on talent or worthiness to the company. Its a "put in your time/pay your dues" company and that amount is years and years before you start to see any of your worth pay off. -The turnover rate is mediocre, people aren't in/out in under a year, its more like 2-3 years but when you look at the fact that some people make a career being a recruiter (at much larger corporations) the turnover rate looks high here.
