“Why isn’t everyone doing this? It sounds too good to be true. So what’s the catch?”

The catch is…this is not a J.O.B. = “Just Over Broke.” This is a “Career Opportunity.” Meaning…the more you learn, the better you can get, the more you can understand about the technologies you are working with and the better salesperson you can be…the better you will do! It’s not easy…but the best things in life never are. You need to equate this position opportunity to being a “Stock Broker” or “Sports and/or Hollywood Agent.” This is hardly a role you will master in a month or two (and most recruiters are easily a rookie through their first year). The expectations on our recruiters are very high, the competition is fierce and there is a lot to be good at! But, for those who can hack it, who have the drive determination to be successful…the monetary rewards are tremendous!
