Industry Is Brutal

Pros

Work life balance. Chance to make money if you get LUCKY.

Cons

Hard work does not pay off. Saw people work 10x harder than the people making the most $ in the office and they were making barely anything more than base salary(which is brutal). It's not about hard work, its about luck. You can call everyone on earth, but if they aren't looking for a new job you can't convince them. Just a terrible industry IMO due to the fact that it's all pressuring people to quit jobs for contract to hire which often does not leave them with a permanent role. Head hunter reputation is totally warranted.

Pros

As it is with any sales/recruiting job, it takes time to establish yourself in this career. Relationships are so important, and again those take time to build. If you are in it for the long haul and have good morals you can do very well here. Leadership wants to see you succeed, if you are willing to put the work in you will receive the support necessary to be successful. Base salary is low, now hear me out... This is very motivating to do well so you can get commissions and grow financially. A lot of sales roles don't even have a base salary, so I view this as a positive. Great people to work with. They encourage innovation and creativity in both the recruiter and Account Executive roles.

Cons

If you are not self motivated, coachable, and willing to learn, you will probably not find success in this role and will dislike it.

Pros

What an experience Brooksource has been! I chose Brooksource for two main reasons. The first reason is that during the interview process I felt like “Alex,” not a number. Brooksource has treated me like family from the get-go. Coming fresh out of college I had no idea what it meant to be apart of a work family. From the morning coffee talks, to the 1 on 1 feedback sessions, to the happy hours after work, it quickly became evident to me that everyone cares about you as an individual, not just how you produce at work. The second reason is the personal and professional growth. I have been put out of my comfort zone on a daily basis since day one. From leading stand-up meetings, to being asked to provide feedback on something important, to role plays, Brooksource will push you to become great. I could not be more satisfied with my decision to work for Brooksource. If you are looking for a company that cares about you, offers you unlimited growth opportunities, and embodies a strong family-like culture then Brooksource is the place for you!

Cons

None that I can think of!
