They sell you a job that doesn’t exist - Recruitment Specialist NCSA College Recruiting Employee Review

Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. Of course, it is very disconcerting to hear you did not have a better experience. I hope that in your three years at NCSA, you did find some fulfillment here, and I wish you the best of luck in your next role. NCSA leadership has always taken workplace culture and team member satisfaction seriously. That’s why we’ve been consistently recognized as one of the best places to work in Illinois. In order to find ways to improve, we have anonymous, third-party feedback mechanisms in place and they tell a very different story than yours. You raised a variety of points – several of which are mistruths, and I am not going to address them all in this response. I do want to clarify a few things about NCSA to others reading this post. While I have no way to know what was said during your interview 3+ years ago, I can assure you that today, Recruiting Specialists interview with multiple people from our HR and Sales departments, and the compensation and schedule information which is shared is based on department averages from the prior year. During interviews, naturally candidates try to convince us that they are a great fit, and we also aim to demonstrate the value of an NCSA career. We are proud of our strong culture and the help and guidance we provide to our clients. We want prospective hires to know how much we care about making this the best place to work for competitive, hard-working, sports-minded individuals. Our serious candidates often receive multiple job offers so our goal, like other companies, is to put our best foot forward and share our strengths as an employer to win over these talented individuals. The average Recruiting Specialist works about 45-50 hours/week and many choose to work a set 40-hour schedule which is supported through a specific compensation structure. Just a quick look at our website will tell you that there is a cost associated with our premium services in addition to the free recruiting education and assessment as well as our free Starter package. NCSA’s Recruiting Specialist and Recruiting Coordinator turnover rates are comparable to that of most sales departments. We have many sales team members who love their jobs and have been with the organization 5-10 years, and some who have been here since 2000, the year our company was founded. I encourage any of our current team members to please come see me or call if they have any concerns. I care deeply about your well-being and the well-being of our customers. If any prospective team members have questions about what it is like to work at NCSA, you are more than welcome to contact me as well. My contact information can be found on our website. (I’d include it here but don’t believe Glassdoor allows it).
