What are sales commissions like at Maxim Healthcare?

Great culture improvement over the years, commission can be good

Inconsistent pay based on how business is

Flexible working environment. Weekly pay and commission

I can't think of any cons. It was a good working environment.

One day per week remote.

Maxim is eh. It's a good place holder job but the lack of understanding by management about commission structure and bonuses was astounding. The pay was under what most agencies pay recruiters and the commission structure was not the best. Plus the margins they take from working nurses was really high.

flexibility, professional growth, great people, uncapped commission

homecare is a volatile business

Flexibility. If time off is needed for Dr/kids etc it isn’t a problem taking it.

It’s expected to recruit, onboard and payroll each week. The company finds ways not to pay you commission for your travelers. The VP says his door is always open but is never in the office to address questions. They promote buddies instead of those knowledgeable. ROM,RM,Directors, Managers have no authority to assist with anything. Training is minimal to say the least. You learn by trial and error. There is no support for staff.

Great workplace , uncapped commission

There are none thus far

Beats being homeless, entry level

Terrible pay, base salary is less than recruiters and they get commission but we dont. Toxic work environment, insane workload, underappreaciated for how vital we are to the company.

Great team, great work environment

Lots of work, but paid off with the commission

Internal team members- sounds like some offices are lacking in this department however my office is fantastic. Everyone who works internally gets along well and works towards a goal, we have not had any issues between coworkers. PTO- have never had my pto denied by management, always encourage us to utilize it and management is very flexible and understanding when circumstances arise. Opportunity for growth- i started as a recruiter, went from RCI all the way up yo RCIII/tenured recruiter and now ROM. Pay-if your office is doing well you get great commission checks Everyone that ive had to work with from other offices/corporate have been helpful and nice, luckily i have not run into any issues outside of my office either.

Mental/emotional stress- everything falls on the recruiters/client coordinators. Now that im in a management role I understand that im doing a lot of the behind the scenes work howevee the recruiters are still the ones bringing in the staff and the client coords are the ones keeping everything running smoothly on the day to day. Takes a special person/personality to put up with some of the stuff that goes into that, even though i was a successful recruiter i personally did not enjoy it. Promotions are based on your office-same with commission. You cant be promoted if your office isnt doing well or if your office isnt ready for a new role, regardless of how well you perform. You can however get promoted by going to another office that has that position open, but if you want to stick to the same location its rather limited. Base salary- needs to be revised again. Commission is awesome and i think meets the standard of the times, however for both managers and recruiters base pay is not competitive.

- Maxim prides itself in their diversity and inclusion for corporate employees and their clients. - Maxim services diverse patients within their Companion and Healthcare divisions. A majority of their patient clientele are minors with special needs. Assisting this population can be heartwarming. - If you work hard enough and are doing well as a Healthcare Recruiter they may nominate you to attend "Tenured Recruiter Training" hosted by a different Maxim office within the U.S. - As a recruiter your weekly commission is earned by how well the companion and healthcare divisions are doing collectively. If you would rather have individual earned commission this is not the place for you. - The office functions regionally even though they are part of a bigger national organization.

- No remote days. All in-office. - Interview process for a Recruiter is extensive and ridiculous for a position that pays so little. If you pass the initial phone screening, there will then be an in-person interview with an office manager. If you pass the in-person manager interview there will be a third stage of coming back to the office again to roleplay, answer calls, and to cold call/recruit healthcare workers. If you pass the third stage you might be called in for additional in-person interview with the director. - The office has low retention likely due to poor management. If you are actively interviewing for Maxim San Diego I dare you to ask the recruiters, client coordinators, and/or field support that you pass by how long they have been at Maxim. - The office set-up of Maxim is archaic. They have open desks shoved together and refer to it as a "pit." There is no privacy since it’s open space. And for a job position that requires you to be on the phone a majority of the time colleagues are talking over the other. - The business model of the recruiters and client coordinators staffing available patients/shifts is archaic as well. A whiteboard is utilized that you can only see if you are in the office. But, if the company cannot improve its business model of using a whiteboard that shows me that they have zero interest in allowing their workers to accommodate remote work, or to technologically advance. - As a recruiter you are forced to start off in a 3 month "trainee" period where you are compensated at minimum wage. - After the "trainee" period the compensation that Maxim offers is still bare bones and is not worth the amount of time and hard work you invest to the company. - The amount of premium you have to pay to have their healthcare insurance is ridiculously high for a healthcare company as big as Maxim Healthcare. In addition to the WEEKLY deductions from your paycheck (because pay is weekly) there is a high healthcare deductible. - The premium for dental and vision insurance is also high for a company that compensates its employees at minimum wages. - As a recruiter determining the pay for the healthcare workers you recruit is also bare minimum. Healthcare workers (licensed [LVNs, RNs, CNAs] and unlicensed [caregivers, sitters. etc]) all work VERY hard. As a big business in the healthcare industry Maxim should be increasing the billing rate to their vendors to be able to offer their healthcare workers competitive pay. - Maxim has an individual that handles after-hours calls. However, if that one individual is on vacation you as the recruiter is also expected to be available to be on-call after hours, during holidays, and over the weekend. - Lack of career growth. After obtaining Recruiter III your next step will possibly be becoming a Business Development Manager (BDM) or Recruitment Operations Manager (ROM). The likelihood of a BDM or ROM position becoming available is solely dependent on how much your office makes the prior year. If any specific goals are missed for the business during any quarter or year overall the opportunity of an additional position (BDM or ROM) opening up within you region's office is very slim. Your best bet is to pray and hope that higher position (of BDM or ROM) will open up in an adjacent regional Maxim office. If you do not have plans to move to a different region then do not aspire for a higher position.
