Pros

Strong tenure Professional team Growth Opportunity (to an extent)

Cons

Given that they were in a hiring freeze we didn't have roles to fill and therefore weren't able to make any bonuses.

Thank you for your feedback, and glad to hear that you thought highly of the team that you worked with. Fully understand your reference on inability to make internal talent acquisition bonuses during your time at Softworld - I'm not exactly sure when you were here, but there absolutely was a hiring freeze during a window of late 2023 and early 2024 - that freeze is now a thing of the past. We're hiring aggressively at junior, mid and senior sales positions all across the country, as well as targeted mid and senior recruiting positions if the right candidates come up. Our growth commitments and plans in the coming months simply won't occur without hiring - for current (and any future) Talent Acquisition professionals, there's plenty of opportunity on tap for the foreseeable future. Thank you again for your sharing your thoughts, and we wish you best of luck on future career travels. If you have anything else you'd like to share, I can be reached at 781-373-8452.

Pros

I thoroughly enjoyed working with the entire recruiting team and gained valuable insights from them. The professional development and training were exceptional, providing me with the skills to excel. Working with a diverse range of clients across various industries made the job dynamic and rewarding, offering ample opportunities to fill roles and grow professionally. I can't emphasize enough the support I received from management and the entire recruiting team and gained valuable insights from them,

Cons

This career is not for everyone. There was significant pressure to hit KPIs, which can be stressful, and the weekly hours worked can add up in trying to hit goals and ultimately earn commission. It is hard to strike a personal and professional balance leaning towards the latter. This profession is not for the faint at hear.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts; glad to hear that you had a strong experience with our training and development, something that Softworld has always taken very seriously as a feature, not just a side effect, of career pathing people into success. I fully understand that metrics can be tough, especially early in your career, but they are a useful tool in building the foundation for success within our industry. We hopefully are balancing both quantity and quality; any of our high performers would tell you that they could never have achieved success without both. Glad you learned a lot, and I hope it serves you well at whatever's next. If you have anything more you'd like to share, I can be reached at 781-373-8452. Thanks again.
