Good company if you are a contractual employee

Business Outlook

Pros

Good benefits, quick response from representatives, friendly people. They kept me updated on the interview process and what was going to happen next. They made things convenient for me as far as interviewing and filling out paperwork.

Cons

They are locked into the restrictions of the client company and there is not a lot of room to negotiate.

entry level place to learn the staffing industry and to get trained, not a long-term home for a recruiter

Business Outlook

Pros

Fast-paced, churn and burn recruiting environment with a bull pen. Great place to learn the recruiting basics. Fun people to work with (pending office location). Big client base -- national service level agreements plus local clients as well.

Cons

sales driven organization -- not a lot of career path options for those that want to just recruit instead of going into account management (at least for the APS division). Lots of recruiter turnover either due to retention or through promotion into sales. New recruiters are typically new grads, so the training cycle starts all over. Maturity of bull pen is typically low due to hiring young eager folks. b/c they are a sales driven org, compensation for recruiters is lower. quality of recruiters and placement also is decreased versus other firms that aren't as churn and burn. It's a headcount came of placements.
