RecommendsNeutral OutlookI worked at Davidson Recruitment for less than a year
Pros
They always found me interesting temp roles at good, reputable companies. If I was planning to stay in the area it would have helped me get my foot in the door at some good places.
Cons
There was a 1-2 week gap in between contracts, but this may be normal for temping agencies. They were the only one I worked for.

No training and professional development opportunities. Terrible management team who do not care about their employees. They throw you under the bus. No women in the leadership team and they treat women poorly in general. No diversity at all.

Doesn't RecommendNegative OutlookI worked at Davidson Recruitment full-time for less than a year
Pros
Good location in Melbourne
Cons
Terrible management. No leadership. Management too focussed on appearances and no real substance behind their decisions. Relationships with many senior executive level candidates have been destroyed and this is giving the firm a very bad name in Victoria. Other agencies are laughing at us.

Pros
The amount of knowledge and talent in the office is second to none Everyone is really supportive and there is a real team culture in the office Being surrounded by such driven people is infectious and excellent performance becomes the norm.

RecommendsPositive OutlookI have been working at Davidson Recruitment full-time
Pros
Collaborative and supportive environment Won't accept average workers with average morale, at least they don't last very long Filled with consultants from international backgrounds and decades of experience Doesn't sell out values for profit Senior management incredibly engaged with all levels off staff
Cons
The Sydney office is new to the market which not for everyone, but it gives an opportunity to grow with the business.
