Do all these recruiters sound like car salesman? Any advice finding someone who will actually help you? Or am I better finding exit opportunities myself

No offense but any recruiter guy/girl over 45 pitching these F1000 or temp roles, should just go away. These are the used car salesman just looking for commissions and will place you into Accounts Payable.

They all are. This one tried to sell me a role I was so unqualified for and wouldn’t let me finish a sentence. He talked too much. Turned them down quick.

As a recruiter at Baker Tilly LLP I will tell you sometimes a search agency would be helpful for higher level roles (some are confidential searches) or people relocating into an area where they do not know the companies. There are some very strong agency recruiters to help you but tread carefully. If you decide to work with one I would HIGHLY encourage working with someone who is a CPA and used to work in public accounting as they will "get it".

I will say, I often wonder why people apply to some roles through an agency recruiter when they could have easily applied on their own and saved their potential new company 20-30% of their first year salary. If you are interviewing against others with no fee, you most likely will lose. Best of luck to you!

I have only ever worked with experienced recruiters. Yes, it's a bit selfish but I'm not going to entrust my professional future to someone who has only been recruiting for 6 months.

Hello, fellow newbie here 😀
Was wondering if yall know of any remote sales jobs with a good starting base salary? I'm doing great at my current role selling senior health insurance (76k give or take a year) but I know I'm capable of selling at a higher commission range. My calls at my last company were all cold (around 100 a day). I got job offers as a recruiter and also a few SDR offers but both fields the base is under 45k. I have a four year degree and one year of sales experience. Thank you
