Cold Calls and Control Problems - Recruitment Consultant Capax Resource Management Employee Review

Pros

- Grad culture which usually works well (until management come along) - Training cohorts help to ease you in to the industry - Remote working flexibility, but too much is done from home - Some truly great people there, albeit in an awful company. Tom and Sam make good team leaders

Cons

- Revolving door, people are sacked more than Watford FC’s managers. Every exit is abrupt - Heavily KPI-driven approach and very little flexibility on trivial targets like voicemails - You have to bear the brunt of one manager’s mid-life crisis and constant yearn for control. It’s like a pub bouncer fell into recruitment - Questionable comments made by leadership regarding race and gender - Long hours (to be expected in recruitment) - Very outdated styles of teaching, and they have 3 terms which are supposed to enlighten you - “fear, desire, and urgency.” Expect some very poor attempts at an inspirational speech. - the ‘Wannabe Wolf of Wall Street’ type reviews are unbelievably accurate, take notice of them…

Pros

Rewarding environment if you can put up with a ridiculous working schedule

Cons

Too many to list, hours and weeks are long. Extremely target driven.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. That is great you can see how rewarding an environment it can be. Sales roles are challenging and are not for everyone. We do agree, we are a target driven business, our consultants find targets to be very helpful in ensuring they are as successful as possible! If you would like to get in touch further to discuss this, please feel free to reach out.

Pros

The team is very supportive. The managers are always around to help you whether it to answer work related queries or for a general chat. The office is a very fun buzzy environment. I have felt very welcomed and at home at Capax and genuinely enjoy working here!

Cons

Nothing springs to mind! My hours as an admin assistant are very good and the company are flexible to work from home. The hours are a lot longer for the search consultants
