Thank you so much for taking the time to review your experience with Blue Signal. We are so happy to know our workplace culture and environment are making such a positive impression on our team members! We absolutely agree connecting in-person is so important. We make an effort to fly the entire team in to a central location every year for an all-company summit, and throughout the year, various team members travel to conferences and have the opportunity to engage outside of work that way. At our local headquarters in Phoenix, we have over 30 associates in the general area, and we really enjoy having an office space anyone can come into, at any time. We make an effort to schedule a lunch or happy hour any time someone is visiting from out of state, to get more team members together. We are always thinking of more ways to connect, in-person and virtually, and would love your input on how we can increase that activity. Additionally, unique benefits is definitely on the agenda and we hope to add something different and truly helpful for our employees to select within the next year!

Pros

I love working for Blue Signal. We are able to work fully remote and schedules are flexible to accommodate picking up kids from school, kids sports, etc. In addition, the commission structure is fantastic. If you produce, you can truly make a great living here. The company treats candidates well and helps them even if they can't be placed. That is something many recruiting firms can't say. Overall, great work culture and stellar organization.

Cons

Blue Signal has a lot more steps than most recruiting firms. In the beginning, it can be a little overwhelming. After you get everything down, you realize the little bit of extra time helps to make stellar placements.

Pros

Ability to work from home. Fun outings for local employees in Phoenix.

Cons

They pay a "salary" but it's smoke and mirrors. You have to earn your salary back in commission before you make commission on top of it. Otherwise, you stay at the base of $40K. Managers play favorites and hand out better jobs to who they perceive to be stronger recruiters. No support of work-life balance - they encourage the opposite.

Thank you for taking the time to review your experience with Blue Signal. We are happy to know our culture initiatives make this a fun place to work! As for salary and commission structure, there are other options that can be worked out with a recruiter’s manager. The current format we utilize is most popular due to higher commission percentages and quicker pay times. Most companies require a quota is met (a.k.a., cover your cost for the year) prior to paying commissions. Although we also have that option, we prefer to pay out sooner and only ask that cost get covered YTD prior to payout. This structure is heavily demanded in the 360-recruiting world. We do cover this concept in the interview process and again extensively during onboarding to encourage anyone with questions regarding salary to reach out. Account Managers do like to reward the recruiters who fill their jobs with repeat business. We try to make it a goal for everyone to bring in business as well as recruit. Job distribution/bandwidth continuous improvement is ongoing, thank you for sharing. Even with the unlimited PTO, fully remote options, flexible work schedules, continuous training, open availability from CEO down, and only 2 mandatory meetings per week, we agree that 360 degree agency recruiting is a demanding job and can be taxing. We strive to offer as many resources and flexibility as possible while also trying to stay in business but do agree at times it is not everyone. We appreciate your feedback. We wish you the best in your new opportunity!
