Vantaggi
You learn a lot about the industry fast when thrown to the wolves. Commission structure has potential to earn good money but you have to place a lot of candidates to get off getting paid minimum wage. The job trains you to be entrepreneur to have your own business.
Svantaggi
The president expects way too much from people he hires without any experience. Jumping into doing recruitment and business development at the same time without any experience is impossible. Swearing at them and belittling them doesn't make them any better. Just makes them worry more about placing themselves than their candidates. No base salary. Just a draw of $11/hr that gets subtracted from your commissions. Bad life balance unless you like being stuck on minimum wage.
