Virtual is its own reward
Overall the model at DT is virtual and everyone loves it. You may work at a client's site on some assignments, but otherwise you'll be in your home office. If your assignment calls for you to spend face time with the client, you'll need to dress the part; otherwise you can work in your most comfortable old jeans or sweat pants.
Lifestyle pathing
Big corporations offer career pathing, but at DT we offer "lifestyle pathing." Our Recruitment Partners tend to stay in their roles because our model fits so well in their lifestyle. At the same time, there may be opportunities to take on additional responsibilities, such as Team Lead or Account Manager.

Diversity
We are a recruiting company that serves clients across industries. We have specialized teams in order to make sure we have the best recruiter on every position. That means we'll welcome your expertise in specific areas, but you also may take on searches for positions across the board.
Excellent benefits
Our comprehensive benefits offering includes medical, dental and vision insurance; prescription drug coverage; a wellness program; flexible spending accounts; a 401(k) plan; paid time off; and more.
Success Factors
We are picky about bringing on people who are tenacious, resourceful, highly motivated independent thinkers who demonstrate initiative and regularly go "above and beyond" the call of duty.You'll work high-volume projects that typically will have aggressive timelines. Lots of job postings talk about organizational skills, but in this role they will be essential. You should enjoy finding ways to be more effective and efficient, from creating new processes to taking advantage of technology. We have strong IT team at DT, and if you see a way our system can be faster, they'll want to hear it.
If you have the background in high-volume recruiting, you already know the importance of networking, particularly with candidates. It should be a standard part of your repertoire to say something along the lines of: "I know the client is going to love you. Now, do you know anyone else who might be a fit? What friends or colleagues would you love to work with in this new job?"
Your projects often will involve hourly positions, targeting a pool of candidates who have many options in a fast-moving market. You should be proactive about keeping candidates engaged and interested, consistently promoting a positive candidate experience.
On every assignment you will represent Decision Toolbox, and we'll depend on you to exemplify the highest standards of quality and professionalism. You'll answer to multiple stakeholders, and that will require a certain finesse and political savvy. Most importantly, we'll look to you to keep the client informed at all times. Perhaps the only unforgivable offense at Decision Toolbox is to leave a client wondering what is going on with a project. If an issue arises, you should recognize it and act (including asking for help) quickly, as opposed to letting a project flounder.
