Pros

they cater in lunch sometimes.

Cons

Have been a recruiter before. I am very familiar with the various commission splits, tools, expectations, etc. What was described to me was MUCH different than what I had been told to expect, or that I have received at other companies. Basically, it's churn and burn, here's the phone book, good luck. Of the job orders they said they had too many to even fill that I would get when I started while I built my own accounts, none materialized. If you were part of the clique, that was different. I also felt uncomfortable with some of the things I was asked to do that I did not consider to be ethical, and to tell things to people that were not the truth.

Thank you for your review. While I feel this may be for a different company, it made its way onto our page, so I will address some inaccuracies. We aren’t just another recruiting firm, so your experience here very well may have been different. Not only do we give our recruiters draws so they don’t have to go without a paycheck during their ramp-up time, we also provide them with all the training and tools they could possibly need to be successful. I doubt in 2020 we could get our hands on a phone book, so instead, we provide our team with LinkedIn Recruiter, PCRecruiter, job boards, Zoom Info access, analytics software, and full marketing and project support. In addition to that, we have an “open-door policy” across the agency that encourages new recruiters to reach out to any recruiting manager, including me, for help and guidance. In addition to the support we provide, you may remember that we send out anonymous monthly surveys for employee satisfaction. In the past year, when asked about manager feedback the response has been 100% positive, when asked about tools to perform the work the average response was 96% positive. While we aren’t perfect, we do strive to live up to our core value of excellence and know that by accepting feedback we are always given another chance to get closer to that marker. Another core value we have is integrity; unethical behavior is not condoned at Blue Signal. I take the claim of unethical behavior very seriously and I would encourage you to reach out to me (CEO) or the HR team (hr@bluesignal.com), to further share your experience so we can ensure it doesn’t happen in the future. While Blue Signal wasn’t a good fit for you, we wish you all the best in your career

Pros

GREAT PEOPLE, GREAT DOG, and GREAT MISSION. Yes, I wrote that in all caps because you have to like the people on your team. Easy to do here. The team has a strong work ethic and has a shared mission to deliver the best service and best results for both clients and candidates. It's a fun, family-like atmosphere--and a super cute, well-trained office dog that comes in sometimes, too. It IS still in start up mode, so company is still building and there is lots of opportunity to go in, make your mark and carve your own niche. There is a dedicated marketing team that helps create beautifully branded documents and forms, plus eases a lot of the administrative pain that most salespeople/recruiters prefer not to do. Like any sales job, your compensation is up to you--it's uncapped.

Cons

Full Desk Recruiting is a lot of work, so take into consideration at what stage you are in your career--and LIFE--and be honest with yourself on what you are willing to sacrifice in the beginning. You can control most of the recruiting process but not all of it. Know how much control you're comfortable letting go. Like any sales job, your compensation is up to you. The more you sacrifice the first year, the more you make in the long run. It IS still in start up mode, so don't expect to come in and start counting big dollars right away unless you come in with an established book of business.
