Canadian Executive Search Group

I was fortunate enough to be a member for CES for over 3 years.  Having no direct industry experience (only an HR Diploma) I was given an opportunity to get into recruiting and I am thankful for the opportunity I had to grow with this company. I had the chance to work as a regular employee and as a part of the management team.  In both instances, the management team was fair and driven and gave each recruiter the opportunity to thrive.  

The commission rates you are given are the best in the industry, and as recruiters, you have a chance to work on ALL openings making your income potential, endless.  

We are asked to be on-call and to fill orders after hours but we were also compensated for this by bonuses.  The more you stay organized the less you will have to spend after hours filling positions.  

Lastly, CES is not the most known agency out there but in the coming years, they will be because of the drive the executive team has.  I had an amazing experience here and would recommend new or experienced recruiters to keep an eye out on openings.

Our supervisor is fantastic and treats everyone fairly.  Hours can be a roller coaster: sometimes there's more work than we have workers, and other times you get time off you don't want because there isn't enough work for everyone.  This is full-time and pay is only minimum wage now but is paid weekly and accurately.  The work is a mix of being interesting or repetitive, having to be done within a specific time limit or at the pace of the cell, and there's days when you are sent from one place to another. 
The hardest part of the work is a lot of the new people don't stick with it and just randomly don't come to work, and the job you're working on could be stopped without notice.
The best part of the work is there's lots to learn, it's interesting most of the time, it's a laid-back atmosphere, and our core working group is awesome.

I have been working through CES for quite a few years now and have never had any problems with the placement personnel there.  Pays are always on time and in the bank every Friday morning as required.  Some placements are better than others but, that's not the fault of CES as I've been seeing in a few reviews here!  It's the fault of the companies requesting personnel and the image they give of their needs that seem to make it hard for CES to give the proper/right information to the employees about the jobs they are being placed with!  I have found that all jobs through a placement agency (No Matter Where) are always temporary to a "possible" permanent position and the term "full time" refers to full time hours per week and not that "Dream Job for Life"!

I was hired right out of school so I was very excited for the opportunity to begin my career.

This is a great position for someone who enjoys interacting with many different people throughout the day since the majority of the day is spent on the phone recruiting. This job is fast paced and requires you to be able to handle multiple demands. The most enjoyable part of the job is having the opportunity to interact with many different people.The hardest part of the job is being able to deal with unforeseen circumstances due to changes in staffing needs and associate availability.  

I have learned a lot since I have started working here. Managers and co-workers are supportive of one another in terms of reaching goals and expectations and there is always the need to meet and exceed new goals.

I had a great experience with Canadian executive search group. They were made aware that I needed to find employment within a relatively short time frame, one week later I started at my place of employment. Contrary to other employment agencies in the city, who can take many months to help you gain full time employment. I found the staff to be professional and easy to deal with. Canadian executive research group is hands down the agencies to use.

Overall, very professionally handled company; there's good work to be had when companies reach out to them. Compared to other employment agencies (like Goodwill Career Center), there is no drive to get your resume to your next realistic potential placement. 
You should consider looking for opportunities on your own if they don't have one for you within the week. Otherwise, everyone is very polite and direct with information. You'll fit in as long as you are able to adapt.

I only worked for this company as a temp, and only for one position.  For the time I did work with them, it was a good placement.  However I feel the communication could use improvement, and there was a week where I didn't get paid even though I sent in my time card.  Once I was able to contact the person in charge of payroll, she did rectify it quickly, but I was surprised that it was my responsibility to call the head office (rather than the local office taking care of it for me).

Overall a fair experience.

Terrible management.  Terrible pay.  Terrible recruiting practice.  Extremely rude company to work for. Expects you to work 24/7 and be at their beckon call every single second of the day.  Would not recommend working for this company and would strong advice clients to think twice about hiring them to source out potential employees.  It was frowned upon if i took time to review resumes; was expected to just call them regardless if they met the requirements of the job i was hiring for.

No communication and the girls are very snobby. Once you are not working and making them money to take off your pay their attitude changes. You have to call around and write several emails because they don’t know how to respond . Leave you hanging with no information last minute call ins, don’t help you if you are having difficulty at the job site i thought the purpose of the agency was to advocate for you 

CES is one of those places that truly values integrity and commitment. They give you their word and consistently follow through on it. From the moment you walk through their doors, you can sense their dedication to both job seekers and employers alike. They take the time to understand your unique skills and career aspirations, ensuring that they connect you with opportunities that align with your goals.
