Snake oil folks
Snake oil folks. A legit recruiter will never charge the client (you) for their services. I've worked with recruiters for years, successfully securing most of the positions I've had and guess what? Not once was a fee discussed. I've also worked in technology for many years and I can see a good online review marketing campaign when I see one. Zero companies have almost a 5-star review, they don't exist. These reviews are left by employees through their real accounts or by creating fake ones. Save your money, leverage LinkedIn, Indeed and Glassdoor. Update your resume and start job hunting. If you're well qualified a legitimate recruiter will reach out to you and work hard on your behalf to secure you the right position. In addition, most mid-large companies have internal recruiters that will reach out to you directly. Don't get suckered into paying your hard earned money for an unnecessary and ineffective service.
Response from Stewart, Cooper & CoonJan 18, 2021
Everyone is welcome to speak their mind on any subject. That's the American way. However, this commenter is NOT a client of our company. Moreover, I would like to address some points made by this person. Our employees do not leave comments websites. I am the only one authorize to do that, unless a website is designed for that. purpose. Second, he's right in that everyone should update their resume and get to work to find something they want in the way of employment. However, even IF you are well-qualified, recruiters will NOT necessarily call you. As a 20+ year recruiter, I can assure readers of this message their job is to screen out candidates so to expect a call is an unrealistic expectation. Third, most mid-sized companies now have ATS (applicant tracking software) which is robotic and does the screening for the internal recruiters. IF , and only IF your resume is key word saturated and has the key components they seek, will you be put in a- list to REVIEW, not call, and then if you are not the perfect match, they will NOT call you. Again, I appreciate people providing information but let's make sure it is correctly stated, before publishing. Fred Coon, CEO
