Autonomy and Opportunity - Recruiter Talentlab Employee Review

- Within a couple of years, you can easily make 120k+ with a manageable workload and lots of work/life balance if you are decent at recruiting/headhunting - Great management that empowers you to create your style of recruitment and develop your own career goals - No stupid KPIs or endless performance discussions! - Crazy flexibility to work from home, set your working hours, and lot's of grace given for homelife responsibilities - Fair targets that don't demotivate, but still challenge you to do your best - Mentorship is very good. They actually want to see you grow your skills and career, so they will provide opportunities for Account Management, BD or even team leadership

- Not the place for someone who needs a lot of micro-management, no one will plan your day for you etc, so if you are someone that needs that type of management, this environment would be overwhelming for you - Smaller company that doesn't have offices in every city, so you can't rely on a recognized brand to sell services, you need to be very good at driving new business - Only about one team lunch or smaller event every quarter, not a lot of pub nights etc - No plans to grow the size of the company and hiring is very slow. They tend to be cautious with new hires, and only bring new people on if the market conditions make sense, and everyone on the current team has signed off

- Serious work/life flexibility with out a lot of over time or night expectations - Don't do tons of standing meetings that waste your day - No heavy sales driven metrics, nobody cares how many calls you did in a day just a focus on making solid matches / driving client satisfaction is only priority - Lots of vacation time and everyone actually takes their vacations - Cool team building trips every few years

- Smaller team so less social culture, friendly people but no one is going out for after work drinks - Don't have a lot of support staff so you have to manager your own desk a bit more - Really expect you become a subject matter expert in a certain tech stream, and want you to take training courses to learn about coding etc. which can be tough to learn at the beginning
