$10/hr in staffing but I kinda did that to myself cause I didn’t know the market and was young. Good on you for asking.

I’ve seen entry level corporate between 65-85k and make up to 200k not being a manager

Don’t take this the wrong way - but why would you wanna be a recruiter right now? TA teams are getting laid off left and right. Agency is still open to work, but it’s usually a stressful hot mess.

Tasting sour milk is a bad experience, which is what recruiting is for a lot of people right now.

Hello! I’m actually interested in becoming a People Coordinator. Do you mind lending me some insight on what your role entails?

Entry level positions start usually at $60k. There are so many opportunities for promotions if you're doing your job well.

What past experience do you have? Recruiting is not super hard to get into if you have a good resume. I would say just start applying

Corp recruiter has more options for promos! Agency recruiter is the fast path to nowhere!! I feel if you keep an open mind and do the job cuz you love it, you can make alot of money!!

Faced this weird behaviour from Optum recently. Gave interview for Data Scientist position. HR said feedback is positive. Asked for documents. It's been month now since I have shared the documents. I have no update on the offer. Today I called HR, she called me back saying the position is on hold due to recalibration in team, She has shared interview feedbacks to other teams and will get back to me in couple of days. I am clueless now. My last working day is approaching (In a month). Any Help??

Hi everyone,
I relocated with my family to Ireland recently, one month ago, and while I got a lot of screening calls with recruiters, I did not hear back from any of them after our interview. I am still on the process of getting my work permit and I am very clear about this during the interviews, but I suspect that this is the reason why I am not getting any call back. Any tips on the first screening call with recruiters? Should I touch base with them after our interviews?
