Unless you work in one of the few reputable specialized firms, you probably have very little respect for yourself in a little while. It's an unbelievably tough job in which you need to canvas potential customers for likely job prospects to fill. You'll need to look through about 400 resumes a day. Since it's commission based, there's a dire need to canvas the positions and look through the resumes as fast as possible. In addition, you'll have to try to convince likely candidates to switch out of their current jobs with the likeliness the next job will be better. Since you want to convince them without suspicion, you'll have to use your lunch periods to talk to them during theirs or talk to them around 5-6pm. Finally, expect people to treat you as poorly as possible because you're considered in one of the lowest positions one can attain.
