Pros

Good people, good support, good health benefits

Cons

The whole system is designed to get the CEO rich. You work off a draw you are continually trying to pay back. Turnover is very high!

We understand how challenging recruiting can be, and we really value your feedback. Creating a positive and rewarding environment for everyone on our team is crucial to us. When it comes to compensation, we're dedicated to offering one of the most competitive plans in the agency recruiting world, ensuring our team's success and well-being. The plan has been adjusted and increased based on all team members’ ask. We do offer multiple plans, so please be sure to ask your manager if you are on the best one for you. Recruiters with the desire to grow and build a team can take home up to 100% or even more as has happened on multiple occasions. We are also happy to report we are one of the rare firms in which the CEO still runs a full desk and the majority of his compensation is tied to his own performance. Our CEO is in the trenches every day and responsible for his own number making him relatable to all recruiters company-wide. Any firm profitability goes toward having the best tools, resources, recruiter support staff, and software in the industry. We are not aware of any other firm offering these types of resources, tools, and aggressive commission plans combined due to the uniqueness of our CEO running his own desk. As far as professional development plans, Blue Signal hosts weekly lunch and learns open to all employees; Leadership Training developed and presented by our CCO is offered on a monthly or semi-monthly basis, and our Growth Collective program with feedback illustrating how helpful the intensive one-to-one training and development structure was for recruiters struggling to ramp up or looking for more support in developing their desk potential. The operations team also provides extensive training on the numerous technology platforms Blue Signal offers. Please also note a very time-consuming Business Development and Account Management course spanning several days offers significant advantages to those looking to build upon their recruiting practice by making the most of account manager relationships, and stepping from recruiting into business development. We encourage you to take advantage of these resources, reach out to your manager about how to make the most of your desk potential, and schedule time with our CEO and/or CCO who both make themselves readily available to the entire company even on nights and weekends. Thank you for expressing your concerns and we hope you utilize these opportunities to your advantage. You are also welcome to reach out to the People & Culture team directly or via our anonymous suggestion link and quarterly Employee Satisfaction Surveys with constructive feedback on how we can continue to improve.
