Pros
Some of the best training when it comes to professional development in the recruiting industry. Coming from other staffing firms, this was the first time I've seen a training program geared around tiered growth i.e. first 3 months, very structured and organized training. After that, you're attending regular weekly meetings based on your current skill set. Most places give you a two week crash course in how to do the job where they fly you out to corporate, send you back with some training material and online dashboards to complete...from there, you're thrown into the mix and setup with strict metrics after 60-90 days. Also, the opportunity to grow your career from within the organization is non-comparable. Most people have the opportunity to be promoted to an assistant manager role within 12-18 months based on performance. From there, you're able to grow and move to different markets and acquire a whole new set of skills...opportunity wise, you don't see this in other recruiting agencies.
Cons
This is NOT your average 9-5 but those who are successful in this industry don't get there by working less and getting lucky. Naturally you'll see some turnover but again, this job is not meant for everyone.
