Pros
I was at Epitec just under a year and I titled my review as challenging because that's exactly what it was. The role of the recruiter is tough; you have to be able to find the right talent at the right time and that can be challenging. Then even though you have identified and screened the candidate you have to be able to sell that candidate to your account manager. I learned to really enjoy the challenge of this, but it took some time,.
Cons
Even though you feel you have done everything on your end there is still a lot that can happen that you do not have control over. I have had orders close on me just as I was about to get a candidate submitted, I have people not be able to pass the background check, and I have had candidates get conte-roffers that I could not compete with. But through all of this I learned that I have to be through, organized and not afraid to ask tough questions to my candidates and my account managers.
