Pros

fun environment, you get to watch TV and occasionally get beer on Fridays.

Cons

This position was not at all what I was told it was going to be during my interviews. I was told that TQL was interested in taking the time to find quality candidates over just finding anyone to do the job which is not the case. Recruiting at TQL is worse than their sales/LAE. Mgmt sets unrealistic metrics/goals to hit and is not open to new recruiting techniques or recruiters working together - upper mgmt. feels that pitting recruiters against one another will somehow end in good team moral and hires - during my time at TQL we never hit our monthly hiring goal and I saw my offices turn over rate reach well over 60%. also, beware that your vacation days will be 5 for the first two years and there is no negotiating. If you want to feel like you do not have the tools to do your job and that every recruiter is out to backstab you and steal your candidates this place is for you.

Pros

Frat House environment if that's what you're into.

Cons

Where do I even start.... My first week there the sales manager, whose account I was supposed to look over and be trained by, was gone for the whole week. The desk spot they put me at was next to this JBL party box, making it virtually impossible to communicate over the phone. When you're in the training phase you literally do all the work for the account manager, then you're expected to make cold calls to people that want no part in TQL. When you do get someone on the phone and make a sale, you wont be seeing any of that money. They have a commission draw set up where you have to be making a certain amount of revenue before you can make commission- thus leaving you to the measly 43k salary. These recruiters and managers SELL you a false dream, the turnover rate there is astronomical for a reason. They will hire anyone that'll learn the system, use them for labor for 6 months, cut them when they don't meet the ridiculous KPI metrics. To be actually successful here you either have to work near 60+ hours a week for YEARS waking at 4am to "snipe" accounts that have been released due to inactivity, or be handed an account by a retiring SR level manager. RUN from this company!
