Pros

You get the opportunity to work with a great variety of clients in a fast-paced, strongly competitive environment. If you are serious about wanting to improve your technical recruiting skills, there is no better training ground. You'll get a lot of freedom when it comes to the which reqs you want to work on and how you want to find your candidates.

Cons

If you are expecting guidance, feedback and training, then you will be disappointed. Management expects you to learn on your own and to work independently. You will only be responsible for the candidate part of recruiting. You will hand your screened candidates over to the account management assigned to the open req. Consequently you will have to be able to completely trust your account manager for this part of the recruitment process, which often leads to communication errors and frustration. Furthermore, I've noticed that technical recruiters who did not stand their ground often had to deal with a lack of respect from the account managers.

Pros

pay was excellent. Work atmosphere was quiet even though I was not in a cubicle.

Cons

Poor training. Trainer was distracted with other employees asking questions and other things not relevant to my training. In all, I didn't get even 3 full days training. Then the manager ended my assignment saying that I didn't catch on. I was told training was a full week. Also told me I could work with someone another week if needed. They told me what I wanted to hear and what sounded good then turned on me.
