Careers At AllSearch

What Standards & Metrics are Recruiters and Sales People held to?

Human beings aren’t all the same, and we don’t expect our employees to be either. Our culture and leadership style focuses on prioritizing what is right for each individual employee as much as possible. Although we do have data that shows us what it takes to be successful, the actual concept of success is going to change depending on the employee. Our approach combines using historical data of what makes someone successful here, and also takes into account the endless list of variables that can be different from person to person. When you interview and onboard with us, you and your Manager will define metrics that push you to achieve the goals you’ve set for yourself.

What is your Leadership Style? How do you coach on performance?

Our Leadership Team is committed to “Servant Leadership”. We’re here to support you, ensure you have all the tools you need, your skills are constantly being sharpened and we’re doing everything we can to keep you focused on your candidates and clients. We lead with empathy and understanding. Our Team is committed to growth from within the company so, our leaders not only know what it’s like to recruit and sell, they understand what “Servant Leadership” looks and feels like so they can emulate that to their team of people. Our coaching is very similar to our leadership style and how we hold teammates to metrics, everyone is different. We approach coaching from an individual and collective perspective depending on the situation. 

What does a path to leadership look like?

We are committed to internal, organic growth. As a small business, we value individuals that think like an entrepreneur, are intrinsically as well as extrinsically motivated, are passionate & hungry to make an impact. We’re building something bigger than a business here and, the individuals that rise to leadership will be people we trust to service the client, candidate and internal team well.

What kind of Benefits can I look forward to?

Working for a company that is doing good in their community is important to me, how do you prioritize social impact?

Being socially responsible is important to us. Prior to March of 2020 we were physically active in the community through our Paid Volunteer Time Off program. With the way personal interaction has changed, we’ve migrated to a model where our Teammates have the opportunity to donate to their preferred non-profit with each placement they make through our AllSearch Cares charity program. At the end of each quarter, each employee is allocated funds depending on number of placements made, they choose their favorite non-profit, and we make a cash donation in their name. Getting the money in the hands of the people doing the hard work of supporting our communities.

Do you provide opportunities to get to know colleagues outside of our primary responsibilities? How do you keep a team of remote people collaborative and engaged?

Covid has certainly kept us on our toes but, we are very active and focused on building our internal connectivity to maximize teamwork and collaboration. When appropriate we are offering in-person team building opportunities such as lunches, happy hours, bowling events, summer picnic and more. We have also worked to build fun and engaging virtual team gatherings as well including team trivia, other fun games to keep things light and goofy, meditation sessions and more. These events are always optional, which allows you the freedom to connect when it makes sense for you.

What is your expectation for working hours, breaks, personal appointments etc?

Our theme of flexibility and autonomy applies here too. Our team is expected to be responsive and attentive to their clients, candidates and teammates. While we do have rough expectations that you’re available during normal business hours, we also understand that the nature of our work sometimes demands a unique availability. You and your manager can define a working schedule that supports you as a person, and an employee.

How do you recognize good work?

Our team gives their all to come through for their clients and candidates. As individuals we all like to be recognized in different ways when we contribute to the success of the group. We like to let our full team know about the daily successes as frequently as possible through full team “shout outs” from leaders and co-workers.  We have a monthly award session that honors the Recruiter of the Month, the Sales Rep of the Month and the Teammate of the Month, where cash prizes and gift certificates are earned.  We also have a quarterly and annual recognition program that offers cash bonuses for earning certain production achievements.  We have an amazing annual kickoff meeting to share in all of our success as a team and to set the stage for the new year in front of us.  These are just some of the ways we celebrate our team!

"I just wanted to take a moment and thank you! I appreciate all the hard work you and the team continue to put into finding candidates for our open positions. From the beginning you took the time to thoroughly understand our objectives, vision and inevitably understanding clearly the type of individuals we seek to fill these open roles. The communication and follow up with each candidate has been extremely timely and professional. The past 4 candidates have been placed through AllSearch and all have proven to be very strong hires. You have become our go to source for sourcing outside sales candidates within the company. My HR team and I want to again say thank you for all you do!"

BRIAN, INDUSTRIAL SALES DIRECTOR

Client

"I interviewed 5 firms and narrowed to AllSearch. From a execution standpoint, AllSearch not only worked very hard to learn our industry specifically, but also used their industrial contacts to infiltrate our sector specifically. I had as much interaction with them as with our own staff. They communicated well, trained on our screening process, and quickly located quality candidates. They also helped with the closing and negotiation process. Bottom line, they had a hand in over half of our candidates. Nearly a dozen key hires in total."

KEVIN, OPERATIONS DIRECTOR

Client

I have been working with AllSearch Recruiting for over a decade and have had very positive experiences. Our company has 38 locations in the US and All "Search has helped us fill positions in a high majority of them. As a company we do use other recruiters in addition to AllSearch and we have paid subscriptions with Indeed, LinkedIn and Glassdoor…but none of them have filled more positions than AllSearch."

JON, NATIONAL SALES MANAGER

Client

"Getting a messing from a stranger about a job opportunity can lead to a lot of skepticism. When I got a message from Alex Cutler he was so warm and conversational. I am SO glad I went with my gut, interviewed and got the job! Leaving my old position after 3 years was scary, but I was so unhappy. Being with this new company going on 3 weeks, I’m the happiest I’ve been in a long time. I am so glad I took a chance and let Alex match me with a fantastic company that treats me with so much kindness, respect, and genuinely cares for my success. Thank you Alex! You knocked it out of the park!!"

ALLISON

Candidate

"I was contacted by Alanna Cochran on LinkedIn regarding a position during my most recent job search. Alanna was wonderful during the process. She was communicative with me throughout, even providing insight on the people I was interviewing with. She was also able to accelerate the process because I had an offer on the table that she did not want me to lose out on. I cannot speak highly enough of her as a recruiter and a facilitator. If you are looking for employment or are an employer seeking assistance in your process, I would absolutely recommend Alanna and AllSearch."

"I worked with Mike Bender. After 8 years of being stuck at a dead end job, Mike helped me get out of it. He looked at my resume, and found the perfect fit for me within hours. He helped me pursue a new career and now I just signed my offer letter with a new company. Mike was great throughout the whole process and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a new career."
