Can’t be afraid of hard work - Recruiter OneSparQ Employee Review

Sam was amazing to work with. This is my first experience working for a Staffing Agency.

I really haven't had enough time to evaluate.

great coworkers, who are now close friends. The occasional nice candidate or client you get on the phone.

Overall, this company just was not a good experience for me. Management is very focused on metrics and micromanaging instead of actually helping employees grow. There is a lot of pressure around performance, staying late, and always being available, even when management doesn’t always follow the same expectations themselves. The culture also felt immature and unprofessional all of the time. There were a lot of mandatory meetings, trainings, and team activities that honestly became draining after a while. The work/life balance was not great and burnout was pretty common amongst everyone I worked with. The pay and commission structure was also disappointing. During the hiring process, the earning potential sounded much better than what most newer employees actually make. It felt unrealistic unless you had already been there for years. The actual job can also get frustrating. A lot of time is spent chasing candidates or clients that go nowhere, and there is a huge focus on hitting numbers instead of finding quality people. It often felt like quantity over quality. The training and roleplaying also never really stopped, and they would have to be outside normal work hours, which became exhausting over time. There are definitely some nice people you will interview with, but I would recommend thinking about whether this type of environment is right for you before accepting an offer.
