Recruiter - Recruiter Empowered Staffing Employee Review

I spent seven years with the company and had the opportunity to grow from a relatively junior recruiter into a senior team member who interviewed, mentored, and trained new hires. Throughout my time there, I always felt that my voice was heard. Leadership was receptive to feedback and genuinely encouraged employees to identify opportunities for improvement, create new processes, and help shape how the business operated. One of the biggest highlights was the level of ownership and responsibility given to employees. I had the opportunity to work directly with highly regarded clients, build meaningful relationships, and make an impact well beyond my job title. There was also excellent visibility to ownership, making it easy to share ideas, ask questions, and understand the direction of the business. The compensation structure was competitive and highly motivating, rewarding hard work and strong performance. For someone looking to grow professionally, take on meaningful responsibility, and be recognized for their contributions, this was an excellent place to build a career.

It's honestly difficult to identify significant downsides after spending seven years with the company. The biggest consideration is that this isn't a traditional 9-to-5 role. As with most agency environments, there will occasionally be early mornings or late evenings depending on client needs and time zones. If you're looking for a position with very rigid, predictable hours, this may not be the best fit. That said, the flexibility goes both ways. Success in this role requires adaptability, initiative, and a strong work ethic, but the company rewards those qualities. In my experience, you truly get out of the role what you put into it. For those willing to put in the effort, there are significant opportunities for career growth, professional fulfillment, and strong compensation.

Being a 20 year veteran in several roles within the recruiting industry from being overworked with high pressure overwhelming demands to working in a high drama atmosphere and feeling unappreciated I sensed in no time l that I've found a home with Empowered Staffing and have been with them in some capacity since 2018. Management and longtime co workers give me a sense of a "family" environment. After two year at the firm as a sourcer / research associate Sarah recognized my talents and offered me a role as recruiter which was quite lucrative especially during the COVID lockdown where we we required by the State to work remotely. When we were in office this was a job I looked forward to going into office for every day. I've never worked for kinder or more understanding people and I've been given more flexibility than I have ever been offered in the past. I really don't need a lot of freedom since I enjoy working but its nice to know that its there when I need it. Dinners and after work get togethers are a really nice bonus. Daniel and Sarah are both very smart at running the business and really fun at the same time.

Other than some lull between contracts I honestly can't think of anything.
