Interviewed with them. Spoke with a recruiter then the VP. Got positive feedback, had great rapport. We scheduled to follow up next week on some minute details. He missed our scheduled time and did not respond to my emails. Left me ghosted and dissatisfied with the conduct. Felt like that was indicative of their culture and left it alone.

I worked there as an Account Manager at Randstad IT, and personally hated it. However, you can be successful if you get a good list of clients. It all depends on the specific office and if you have existing clients or have to cold cal and break into new ones.

Staffing is a hard industry. The reason I left was because I would get job posting, but our recruiters could never fill them. You only get paid if we fill the job.

I would ask how many precious accounts mangers have worked the book you are getting and if they were successful.

A good friend of mine worked as a recruiter there and hated it. I don’t really have much feedback other than that, unfortunately.

I received a verbal offer for a VP position at CCB line of business at JPMC in NYC two weeks ago. The recruiter asked for salary expectations but there was no number set. It’s been two weeks since and complete radio silence. I sent an email to a hiring manager a week ago but received no reply. It’s August so people could be on vacation but this is really strange. Has anyone had similar experience?

This yapping comes from people I've known since college. I have successfully blocked all such negativity but wanted to know if anyone here has faced such scenarios.
P.S: I've already accepted an offer above my expectations
