What rewards can I expect?
What attracted me to Hays in the first place is
the commission structure. It is paid over and
above a basic salary and designed to reward
you personally on the amount of success you
have. There is a risk element involved, but if
you’re good at your job and get a little bit of
luck, you can earn really good money.
And the work-life balance …
You sometimes need to speak to candidates
and clients in the evenings; however, the
excellent commission more than compensates.
I’ve never failed to take my full holiday
allowance!
What is special about Hays’ culture?
There’s a ‘work hard, play hard’ culture
and colleagues tend to stick together and
support each other. There is high visibility
and your success is recognised at all levels
