Pros

* Opportunity to progress as everyone comes in at entry level and they only promote internally which is based off merit rather than who is the Directors favourites. * They give you the opportunity to work your way up and to become a Director of your own business or set up an office abroad. * One of the best commission schedules in the market and the opportunity to earn a stupid amount of money at such a young age. * Great competitive, inclusive culture with great incentives abroad and every month. *Constant support from managers regarding getting you up and running with strong training team and resources. They give you all the tools for you to be successful, you just have to work hard to achieve that.

Cons

* Hours are long in recruitment in general, so if you are not resilient, hard-working or competitive, then you can struggle. * Standards are high and everything is 100mph all the time, but they set their standards out from the 1st interview so you know how much work is expected before joining. * Recruitment is tough, you can do things right and it can still go wrong so can get your hopes up prior to making a sale and then it falls through. * I had a great 2+ years in the role but in the end, after being relatively successful, the recruitment industry as a whole wasn't for me.

Pros

- can make good friends as you all suffer together. - nothing else

Cons

- bully mentality - rubbish training - sink or swim - drug heavy company events - before considering this company do a LinkedIn search on how many people have left and recommend speaking to some of them. There is a reason why 30+ people leave every year within their first year.

Pros

- Great training and support when first starting the job from the team and your manager. Helps you learn stuff very quickly. - Excellent bonus scheme. Having months where you're earning £5K+ within a year of leaving Uni! - Amazing team culture. Basically working with your mates which really helps when you have the up & down days of the job. - Great office space with pool tables, golf simulator, yoga studio. Gives you lots to enjoy on lunch breaks/after work if staying late. - The incentives for the team and "top performers" are amazing. Every month we have meals/activities out in Leeds if we hit target, and the top billers do half-year trips abroad. - They have invested in new technology, including AI CRM system which makes menial tasks autonomous.

Cons

- The hours can be long, and you'll face lots of rejection when you first start. You're putting in lots of hard work but if you stick at it, the rewards are definitely worth it.
