Beware

Recommend

Pros

They are a large firm so they sometimes leverage their name etc.

Cons

They push metrics and quotas that are challenging and seem to encourage questionable practices to achieve goals. I have been recruiting for a long time and this was the worst experience I've had in staffing. If you are considering working here I would do your homework and really look at why so much turnover happens and maybe even reach out to former employees. You might gain some insight into the way they go about their business. I have worked at other top international staffing firms and this is by far the most unethical firm I have ever worked for hands down.

Wasn't for me

Recommend

Business Outlook

Pros

I worked with a great team, and for a job right out of college in Sacramento, it paid decently.

Cons

You will have very little variety in your day. You have a routine of about three different things that you will be doing, recruit, make sales calls, and handle a very large quantity of distractions from incoming calls, candidates calling out of work for numerous reasons, unqualified people demanding work, calls from wrong numbers, etc.
