Pros

Good staff Good interview process

Cons

Minimal support from management Frowned upon if you did not eat your lunch at your desk, would have to work while you were eating and could not take more than 30 minutes Frowned upon if you ever left on time and would be pulled up on this Lack of training and support for trainee positions, it is like they set you up to fail

Firstly, I’m sorry that your experience was not as positive as most feedback we receive. In the past few years, we have made huge improvements in the training we provide all consultants joining Huntress. No matter what level you join at, the training programme is tailored to build on your skills so you become the best consultant in the industry with a focus on customer service. The recruitment industry is renowned for being a heavily sales focused and being challenging but also incredibly rewarding. The 1st year is certainly the most demanding as you get to grips with working towards your KPIs and some time this requires working longer hours in order to meet your targets - as we say you get out what you put in. Meanwhile we are conscious that employees will only perform well if they work in a friendly and supportive environment which management is tirelessly working to achieve. The office in Aldwych was designed to reflect exactly this and we now have a welcoming kitchen / open space for our employees and candidates to enjoy and the feedback has very been positive. We also have a roof terrace for staff to enjoy the sunshine and the views, either over lunch time or for ad-hoc meetings. Your feedback is valuable to us and we would like to know more about your particular experience at Huntress as we are always striving to improve, so please get in touch with Marie-Claire in HR.
