Pros

I've worked at a few staffing firms in my day and, Connect Search was one that truly gave you the freedom to build your own voice. A number of firms give you updated metrics on a daily basis (# of calls, # of interviews, time on the phone, etc). While those are great to hold you accountable, Connect Search did not believe in that helicopter boss mentality. Compared to other firms in the market, these guys pay fair market value. I built many valuable relationships within the walls at Connect Search. Staffing can be a very frustrating business, but they give you all the opportunities to be successful. I would recommend the firm to anyone in the staffing world even if you're not considering a transition from your current role.

Cons

Not really any cons that come to mind.

Pros

If you are going to do staffing in Chicago, this is the place to do it. When you first start they do a good job of making you apart of the team. From day one you have access to top management who have great insight on how to close more deals and be a better business professional. When working there and making money for ConnectSearch, I found there to be a lot of freedom and had good work balance. After leave the company to move to a new state, they paid me out on my commission. Over all they were a great organization to work with from start to finish. Staffing is hard and isn't for everyone, but if it is for you this is the place to do it!

Cons

- Could improve communication across teams. (Things like slack could save time on things like excess company emails)
