Has anyone gotten a response from Creative Circle after getting an email from them about a job? They send the emails to me often but I’ve not yet gotten a response after applying.

I wouldn’t do anything with them. They take a part of your salary. I had a recruiter reach out to me and we spoke on the phone and then she reached out to me a few months down the line like she never knew who I was

You generally don’t want what they got anyway. They’re business model is pretty gnarly.

That’s good! From my experience, they take a massive cut of the salary first year or on contract basis, so the person placed is usually fairly underpaid. I used to have them find staff for me at previous roles until I realized how bad it ticked the creatives / agency.
