Pros

-Solid base plus commission structure -Good benefits -Upper management are very much there to help you but it has to be done the "CFS way" or you are out -Solid co workers

Cons

-Expected to work outside of the 8a-5p -Very metrics driven, reporting every call, interview, send out you had each day on a spread sheer. Then sending that to the president and managers daily. -You will be asked to post a lot of jobs that are not "real" to increase foot traffic. -Cold calls sales are very much a part of this job. Can be seen as a pro but with the over saturation of staffing in the are those calls are not received well by hiring managers.

Thanks for your feedback. CFS does have a proven way of doing things that has led to many individuals being very successful. I am sorry that you viewed that as negative. Most employees view this as a positive. Like yourself, most of our new employees have no staffing experience when they start. We do hold a new person's hand when they start until they show we don't need to do it any longer. I am sorry CFS didn't work for you. We certainly gave it a good effort on our part when early indications were that it wasn't going to work out. I am, also, sorry that you were offended by a political discussion. I don't believe there were any serious discussions. However, we don't discourage people from sharing their opinion. Best of luck to you.

Thank you for your positive review! I am not sure what you meant by "clients are tough to work with", but would be happy to discuss.

Pros

CFS and Kelly Miller are the best! Kelly is the best "match-maker", always responsive, and truly cares about her clients and candidates. Kelly spends a crazy amount of time getting to know the client and all her candidates. She doesn't just "plug" a person into a job; she matches the skills, work-styles, and personalities. I have been expertly matched to two long-term assignments that were a perfect match of her client's needs and my skills. I can honestly say that those two assignments have been the BEST work experiences in my career; the second assignment turned into a permanent placement with a fabulous company. Win, win, win! As the saying goes "your mileage may vary"; the job market and economy may not always support your individual needs, and that is not the fault of the recruiter. The recruiter is not a magician, they are a partner in your job search. In my experience, be the hardest-working party in your job search. Polish your resume, polish your shoes, iron your shirt, bring your "A" game and present yourself in the best light; the next great opportunity might be just around the corner. If there is an opportunity that matches you, Kelly will find it. I highly recommend CFS and Kelly Miller.

Cons

No Cons, all experiences are positive.
