Misleading and deceiving monstrosity of an organization. - Recensione dipendente - Recruiter presso Diversant

There seems to be a misunderstanding on this message board that the reason why people who work at Diversant leave after just a few months is because they are incompetent, not goal oriented, not hardworking, or unable to handle the stress of a busy work environment. Of course, all of the above could be true, but from my personal experience and the experience of my fellow coworkers, this is not the case. I graduated from college a few months before I started working at Diversant. I had no prior experience in the staffing and recruiting industry nor did I have clear expectations of Diversant from the get-go. Typically, when you interview for a company, the interviewer will lay out several things for you such as what they expect of you, (and what you should expect from them), your compensation, your work duties, etc. Unfortunately, the interviewer gave me very false expectations which in turn made me a victim of this misleading and deceiving monstrosity of an organization. I was told several things in my interview that seemed to never come true, even after I put in long work days and went above and beyond of what they expected of me. Being a naive affiliate of the hopeful but struggling class of jobless post-college students, when I was told that I would make 60K after 6 months of working at Diversant, I believed it. I also believed it when I was told that there was a high-intense training program for the first 3-4 months that you were on board and that the training program would whip you into shape and mold you into the recruiter/sales person that they wanted you to be. Truth be told, I was not even close to making even 5K over my base salary of 35K by the 6th month of being at Diversant, and I may or may have not been one of the top performing recruiters in my class of 7. As far as training, there was a 2 week training course that consisted of online modules that barely touched upon even the most important of topics that should have been covered. Clearly, that is not enough training to prepare somebody new in the industry. 2 weeks isn’t even enough time to train a new cashier at Shoprite. In my interview, I was also told that after I move into sales, it really is just a "walk in the park" from there. I would be able to take clients out to lunch, dinner, professional football games, and most importantly, treat my clients out to mani's and pedi's. The key to success at Diversant is to say the least, quite twisted. Rather than properly training their employees for 3-4 months, requiring them to be a technical recruiter for 2 years, and having a financial incentive to work hard, they do the complete opposite and throw you into the wolves and expect you to work magic. Management likes to take the "micro-managing" and "hovering over your shoulder" approach. They obviously believe their employees will produce more with threat than with trust, respect, and guidance. The last thing the company respects is your quality of life and your personal time. Management had the nerve to tell me (more than once) to "take it easy on the weekends" which made me feel as if I was tied down and unable to do what I wanted on my personal time. With all do respect, what I do on my personal time is non of the company's business, nor their choice unless it directly impacts the company's profit. The last time I checked, spending time in Lancaster, PA with your family wouldn't directly impact Diversant's profit, unless I was sharing trade secrets and business information with the Amish. If you have read this comment in its entirety, it is now pertinent for you to know that one or more of the comments written on this page were written by upper management. “How do I know that”, you ask. I know that because that person claims that Diversant has better commission structures than any competitor in the industry. Just like the company, that is a complete and utter lie.
