Pros

The best thing about being a recruiter at Smith Hanley is how well-known and how highly thought of we are in the areas we recruit in. When I was recruited to this job, my manager told me companies would call us to help them fill positions...I thought it was just hype, but it really does happen. We have been recruiting in this area so long and so well, that clients return to use us over and over again. Sure makes my job easier!

Cons

Would be nice to work in the same office with the Chicago staff. We have so much overlap, but I don't want to move there and they don't want to move here!

Being in the same recruiting niche for 35+ years does have its benefits. I'm glad you are reaping them. I just scheduled our 2017 summer part for 9/22...a little late, but we are doing it!

Pros

Before joining Smith Hanley, I held corporate roles where I seemed to be busier than most of my colleagues and was making a big impact, but was paid about the same as everyone else. At Smith Hanley, I am in control of my salary. I like the entrepreneurial environment here. This is an organization where, if you work hard, stay positive and set your sights on having fun, you will be rewarded with a salary that is above that of a corporate recruiter. Senior management will give you the tools to be successful and will let you shine. I like that the leadership team continuously works to be innovative with social media outlets to advertise our services. As recruiters, we have defined areas of responsibility and no overlap, so you will not compete with other recruiters for the same candidates. That is something that distinguishes us from other recruiting agencies and it creates a positive, collaborative environment. Smith Hanley has a terrific reputation in the industry!

Cons

It's challenging to take a vacation longer than a week at a time, as our pipeline will dry up. Also, the benefits package, while decent, is not what you will find in a corporate environment.
