Pros
I started my recruitment career at MRL with no prior experience in sales or technology. Thanks to their excellent training programs and a truly collaborative environment, I was able to quickly develop the skills needed to succeed.
At MRL, if you show a willingness to learn and adapt, you’ll find strong support from everyone around you. The team shares a common goal and values working alongside people they genuinely enjoy collaborating with.
The CEO is committed to standing out from traditional recruitment firms by offering a four-day workweek and flexible working hours. He understands the outdated perceptions of recruitment and is actively working to modernize the industry.
MRL provides flexible hours, a supportive and friendly team to ensure a great work life. If you're looking to start a career in recruitment, I couldn't recommend a better place than MRL.
Cons
While MRL is making real efforts to revamp the traditional recruitment culture, some of the usual challenges still surface — as they do in most places, to be fair.
One notable issue is the monthly target of two placements, which I believe is unrealistic; even at the peak of the tech market in 2022, only about half the office consistently met this goal. It was a strange shift moving from revenue-based targets to placement-based targets, and from conversations behind the scenes, it’s clear that many consultants still have reservations about the change. That said, I do appreciate MRL’s willingness to explore new ways to incentivize their team.
