Pros

Good mission in theory, and it can help kids, but promises made to way too kids that they can play at the next level just so they pay the fee to join our network.

Cons

Everything else. 75% of the 100+ guys and gals in my department (recruiting specialists) from when I started are now gone. They don't care about work/life balance, working 7 days a week. Best leads are given to the "favorites"....which is the 25% of department that still remains

NCSA College Recruiting Response

Thanks for taking the time to write a review. It’s now a year later as I read your review again and write this response, and I’m still saddened to see your comments. Our mission here at NCSA is to change lives through sports. And every student-athlete who is both academically and athletically qualified to participate in collegiate athletics should have the chance to do so. That is why we help kids through a mission of providing recruiting education, assistance and connection to college coaches. Our team members are passionate about this mission and know that our tools and resources can help families. I think that’s why we win multiple company awards every year (with that passion, and our fun culture!). I know a lot has changed in the last year since you’ve been a part of our sales team, so I believe if you were still with us you’d have some new insight to share here. And if you read this response, I hope you’ve found a home at your new job. Good luck to you!

Pros

The people are the secret sauce of NCSA - it's a great team that wants win, innovate, and grow together. Lots of opportunities to provide feedback and connect with leadership.

Cons

The work can be challenging and very demanding.

Pros

- Work from home - Get to talk about sports every day, and getting to learn about new sports - Manager was awesome, but I may have been lucky - I heard bad things about other managers! - There are about 10 teams of Recruiting Coordinators, all performing the same role, and each team being managed differently. Not sure if this is a pro or con

Cons

- Making around 100 calls/day - Leads are technically not cold, but they might as well be - lots of families didn't realize what they were signing up for - Over half of the leads in my funnel every day were recycled, i.e. we have called them in the past and they were not interested. Sometimes leads were recycled upwards of 10 times - Making phone calls from 9:00 am - 6:00 pm local time - often calling families at 7 -8 pm their time - Will likely be flagged if you go more than 20 minutes without making a call unless communicating with your manager
