Would not want to recruit anywhere else! Ability to work for an innovative company, with the best people who challenge you everyday. Opportunity to make a lot in commission as an in house recruiter.

A lot to learn in the beginning - although great training to learn from peers and managers. Base for recruiters to be higher,

Pros

Pay is very good for a reason...

Cons

The busiest part of the year is during the holidays, Do not expect to have a life from November to February outside of work. Turnover problem is massive and really hurts morale. You are considered tenured if you can make it a full year. Clients unhappy with their specialist being changed every 3 months due to people quitting or getting fired, and will make your life worse because of this, Hours can be extremely long. Way too much work, with un realistic expectations from out of touch leadership. Feedback is shared to leadership, but ignored. They could care less about the happiness of the PSD team. One escalation will get you fired. The learning curve for the system is huge, and many do not stay long enough to master the system. This causes many tenured specialists to put their work on hold often to assist the new hires, which gets old after having 4-10 new hires on your team in one year.
