CyberCoders: 18 months in and looking forward to the next 18 years!
Pros
- Ramp up time: I didn't have any Recruiting experience prior to joining CyberCoders and was a bit worried that I would struggle in the beginning without a book of business or active clients. CyberCoders had me covered :) For the first 5 weeks, they GIVE you incredible leads to clients that are actively hiring! I am still closing deals with a client I picked up in my first week! - Technology: We all know that CyberCoders is synonymous with Technology and this doesn't just refer to our clients and candidates. I was blown away by the tools and equipment that CyberCoders provides to EVERY CC Recruiter. I can happily say that "not having the right tools" will NEVER be an issue that a CyberCoders Recruiter will ever have to deal with. - Culture: I wasn't going to comment on CyberCoders culture because it seems every review has gone to great lengths to describe the lavish parties and incredible events but the ONE thing missing from those comments was the PURPOSE of the celebration. Aside from CyberCoders Holiday events (Which everyone should get to experience at least once in their lives!), every celebration or party is created because of the success of the Recruiters. It is this success that keeps the company going and CyberCoders spares no effort to make sure that the Recruiters are recognized for their accomplishments, big and small.
Cons
I could go on and on about the "Cons" of working in a sales environment but this is what I signed up for. I could say that it is difficult to bring my "A" game everyday, but this is what i signed up for. I could say that being commission-only is stressful, but this is what I signed up for. It would even be easy to say that this is the most challenging job I have ever had....But this is what I signed up for! And I am glad I did... (So is my Bank Account :) )
