Pros

As a great recruiter you can make a fair amount of money.

Cons

The management at best is confusing and at worst a nightmare. They rip you down and never bring you back up. Make you feel like you should have control over every consultant, but we all know that is not possible. They make you work on jobs with low spreads, and then berate you for filling such a low spread. The recruiters are always to blame for everything all the time. If you ever do something good, it's never good enough and praised in a back handed compliment if at all. Management is never clear with direction and it is typical to feel like you have 5 different bosses. The account managers are sloppy.

Pros

Open Systems Technologies makes recruiting fun and challenging, because they give you a large list of jobs to fill. They also give you easy access to pre-screened candidates and job boards. Then it's up to you to figure out how to find the best people for all the available jobs. They're really open to creativity. And the relationships you form last a lifetime -- both professionally and personally!

Cons

You have to be self-motivated and persistent to be successful here.
