They have a set way of doing things, and nothing can be questioned. It will therefore make or break you.
Good place to start your career- but if you're experienced and disagree with anything they will treat you like a naughty child.
Great if you are doing blue collar which they are strong on, but they have little experience in white collar roles. For white collar roles this is a green field site, which, in a difficult market can be tricky.
For white collar- very few client relationships to rely on, if any at all.
They rarely deal above 15% with clients and have some fee agreements at 3%.
Recently lost a big contract- and they have let long standing staff go.
No training or assistance from mgt- nobody will take you to see a client or suggest candidates for a role you are resourcing for. No induction or training.
If you have a candidate interviewing with your client no other Consultant is allowed to submit their CV to any other client. People interview candidates but keep themselves to themselves- no one will ever suggest a candidate to you for one of your jobs.
Nobody managing database/research team- and no training on how to use database.
Strict spend limit on advertising- plus no resourcers so you will always be short on candidates, if have any at all. Therefore highly unlikely you will make any money as there is such a limited spend on job boards etc- the only one they will use is jobsite.
Not a good place to be if your fees have a tendency to dip etc, you have blank months etc- they will give you a limited time to be successful and they will not like blank months.
Please be wary of taking a role with this company- I wish I had read this before accepting a role with NRL.
