I currently work at excelHR and have noticed these sites typically offer the negative reviews only. I wanted to add a more experienced point of view based on someone who has grown with this company over the past few years. The first year was hard, it's a lot to learn for someone who has never worked in the staffing industry, and it is a really fast paced position with deadlines and stressful situations. This can prove to be too big of a challenge for people and often they do leave within the first year, we also only keep the best. We have a strong reputation in our industry of being the top staffing firm, so if your work is monitored it's because your interactions with excelhr's clients need to uphold our professional standards. Most positions are sales based, so naturally, there will be goals and targets associated with the responsibilities. The compensation in the first year is more than fair, and as your numbers grow, so does your salary. ExcelHR has proven time and time again that every employee is valuable to them. The team atmosphere is truly like a family, and there are many of our candidates and clients who have come to feel the same way. We have a fabulous location, upscale offices, company events that reward you for hard work, and an excellent management team who have an open door policy. In terms of candidates, we do a thorough screening process for all of our positions and we look at much more than just a resume. Keep in mind that the way you present yourself and interact with our company has a large impact on which roles we refer you to. We are a group of optimistic, enthusiastic, and motivated people who represent top employers in Ottawa. We have countless success stories of placing people in their first government contract which lead to their long term career, or finding an excellent candidate a job within hours of meeting them, or having a one week position turn into a permanent role with a candidates' dream company. I wish there were more reviews online from those people, as it would truly demonstrate how many happily employed internal and referrals of excelhr there are. It is rare to come across a company with such strong values, and I feel lucky and proud to work here.
