i - Recruitment Consultant Real Time Consultants Employee Review

I worked at Real Time for almost 5 years, and only left recently due to moving abroad. During my time there I was given considerable training and investment into my personal and professional development. I was able to gain promotion from senior delivery consultant, to team lead and ultimately delivery manager. What tells real time apart from other agencies is the respect that delivery command within the business whilst working in a market where finding the candidates can be the tougher part of the job. They also focus on retaining quality clients with fillable jobs, meaning there is considerable earning potential. There is a wealth of experience across the management team paired with a level of autonomy. The culture is second to none with a good work life balance, joining Real Time would mean joining passionate and capable colleagues to learn from and call friends.

The database can get some getting used to initially but it is packed with relevant and recent candidates! As with most recruitment roles, the peaks far outweigh any of the troughs.

I started a job at Real Time Consultants when I was considering leaving the recruitment industry after a bad experience at a large corporate agency. I had a good gut feeling in the interview stage where I met the 3 senior members of the team who made me feel relaxed and welcome. Everyone works closely together no matter what level you are and being in a small team means your opinions are always listened to and respected. Supportive encouraging management who are easy to approach with whatever questions or issues you may have. No questions are dismissed as unimportant. Although there is a relaxed, friendly team atmosphere every consultant works hard and is dedicated to doing a good job which makes it a motivating environment. In a job with long hours that can be mentally demanding at times a supportive motivational work environment is essential which Real Time provides.

Long hours Monday to Thursday which is expected in the recruitment industry but early finishes every Friday is a great benefit which not many other agencies have.
