Pros

I have dealt with two people from Explore LTD in searching for my next role and each time they have shown exemplary professionalism and knowledge. The second time of using them I was found a superb new role signed and delivered within the space of 5 days. I whole heartedly recommend them if you are looking for a change in your career.

Cons

From my perspective as a candidate there is nothing that I can fault them on.

Pros

If you are looking to work in a fast paced environment with high monetary rewards, then Explore Group is a great place to work. Of course this does not come easy and with hard work and momentum you will see the rewards. Training programme is offered from day one, whether you are coming in at entry level or more senior level looking to progress. Weekly & monthly incentives to further add compensation Great team environment and regular social team events Senior management are very approachable and get involved with socials Location is close to Reading station for those commuting

Cons

If you are looking to earn commission quickly, you are deluded - hard work and momentum needs to be built. You will see the rewards but this takes time. Prepare yourself for 3 months of no commission and you will be rewarded with different incentives to fill the gap. (this is the same at any recruitment company, so work hard and you will get rewarded). Lack of senior recruiters in Reading office (positive - good opportunity for someone to come in) Business change - direction of organisation changed a lot when I was there, so would be good to see clear plan. Long hours expected (Again this is at all recruitment companies) - If you aren't prepared to work the hours, then don't bother!

Pros

Great atmosphere with fantastic training programming available. Managers are great at getting junior consultants to senior levels as they give one-to-one training and support through out your career. Huge client bases so easy for an smart consultant to come in and start billing straight away. I was at Explore group for a year and I enjoyed every single second of it. I would highly recommend Explore Group for Junior consultants as you will be able to learn a lot from them.

Cons

Long hours and sometime weekend works
