      Industry Is Brutal

      Technical recruiter
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      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.

      Are you willing to work hard?

      Account executive
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      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.
