Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're glad to hear you enjoyed working with your colleagues and that the project provided valuable recruiting experience early in your career. We'd like to provide some additional context regarding this engagement. This was a high-volume, performance-based RPO project where expectations and productivity metrics were clearly communicated during the interview process, onboarding, and through ongoing coaching. Because this was a client-managed engagement, the client retained the ability to remove recruiters who were not meeting the agreed-upon performance expectations. We also want to clarify the perception that this was a "revolving door." While there were staffing changes throughout the engagement, approximately 83% of the recruiters who joined the project remained with us through its completion—a retention rate we are very proud of, particularly considering the project was staffed largely with junior recruiters in a fast-paced, high-volume recruiting environment. Additionally, what was originally expected to be a three-month engagement was extended to nearly eight months due to the success of the program, and many recruiters were ultimately converted into full-time positions with the client. We appreciate your feedback regarding training and continuously look for ways to strengthen our onboarding and coaching processes. Thank you again for your contributions, and we wish you continued success in your career.

Pros

They will hire you if you have no previous recruiting experience. The interview process is very easy; I was offered a job on the spot. Most of the coworkers are nice.

Cons

Context: I was hired for a contract recruiting role, estimated to last around a few months with a potential extension (which was discussed during the interview process). Notes from my experience: 1. Leadership/team lead support changed multiple times during my time here. 2. Turnover appeared high. This contributed to some uncertainty and inconsistency in workflows. 3. Communication style was often urgent and high-pressure, which could increase stress. 4. Performance metrics were emphasized heavily. Feedback was often delivered in group settings rather than privately. 5. Training was minimal and lacked a standardized structure. There was no formal training manual. New hires were expected to perform independently very quickly. 6. Grace for early mistakes felt limited. This was despite new hires still learning systems and expectations. 7. New hires were asked to train other new hires without clear guidance or training resources. 8. Leadership encouraged questions, but responses to questions could feel impatient or inconsistent, especially when access to resources was limited. 9. Time-off requests were not always clearly communicated or acknowledged, making personal scheduling difficult. 10. This is a highly numbers-driven, high-pressure environment. While thresholds were discussed during the interview, actual desired performance was higher in practice, and progress toward these thresholds was emphasized in meetings.

Thank you for taking the time to provide such detailed feedback. We appreciate hearing about both the positive aspects of your experience and the areas where you believe we can improve. We'd like to provide some additional context regarding this particular assignment. This was a high-volume Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) engagement where performance metrics and productivity expectations were discussed with every recruiter during the interview process, onboarding, and throughout the project. Because this was a client-driven engagement, the client retained the right to remove recruiters who were not meeting the agreed-upon performance expectations. Our responsibility was to coach, support, and communicate those expectations as clearly as possible. This project was originally expected to last approximately three months but, due to the overall success of the program, it was extended to nearly eight months. During that time, more than 100 recruiters worked on the engagement, with the overwhelming majority remaining through the completion of the project. We're also proud that several members of the recruiting team were ultimately hired directly by the client as full-time employees. We recognize that fast-paced, high-volume recruiting environments are not the right fit for everyone. They require frequent communication, performance coaching, and the ability to adapt quickly to changing client needs. We also understand your comments regarding training and leadership continuity and continually use employee feedback to improve our onboarding processes and management practices. We appreciate your contributions during your time with Wheeler Staffing Partners and wish you continued success in your career.
