The HT Group

I have worked for several recruiting firms and by far The HT Group has been the most innovative and fun environment!  We truly care about our candidates, clients and each other.  We aren't perfect but strive to be the best we can everyday!  The growth opportunities as a company are important to our leadership team which makes it exciting to be a part of.  We believe our people are what makes us successful and always try and give them the tools to be successful.  We meet with our candidates and clients so that we are able to make the best fit possible for both sides.  It's a rewarding and challenging career in that you get to connect people with their next job opportunities and provide great talent for your clients.  The people I work with and doing something that has an impact has kept me here and excited to come to work everyday.  The HT Group is unique in a space that has tried to make recruiting just another commodity when really it can never not be a "people" business.

The recruiting industry can be hard especially on the staffing/agency side but it can also be so rewarding. The HT Group chooses to focus on the rewarding side of the business!  We want to change peoples lives and connect people with their next great opportunity.  We value relationships and allow employees to spend time and resources developing true connections with candidates, clients and one another.  We have fun celebrating our successes and enjoy quarterly team building events as well as are involved in several philanthropic opportunities including Big Brothers Big Sisters, Texas CAN Academy, etc.  We recently added 401K matching and offer birthday PTO!  We believe in our recipe and plan on some exciting growth over the next 5 years!  HT Group has given people some great opportunities whether it be staying to be promoted or moving onto opporutnunties that otherwise may not have been available.  We want people to win and enjoy focusing on that everyday!

The HT Group has been good for my career.  Management hires qualified people and allows them to do their job without micro-managing, or even over-managing.  

I appreciate that I am treated like an adult, allowed to do my job, and provided the tools to complete the job properly.  Help is available when needed, and the veterans inside the office are always willing to provide their knowledge.  

My success is dictated by me.  Some places have hurdles to overcome; not The HT Group.  

Management is engaged and driven to deliver the best product possible.  They listen to their clients and work to meet needs, and this trickles down to the recruiting team.

The HT Group thrives on the collaboration of all of the departments and even more so within the departments. It's the way they approach clients and the way they approach a new req. 

It's such a great environment to work in with most of your needs taken care of with a fully loaded kitchen. The events outside of the office are amazing, too. 

The challenges of the job are the same as any staffing agency but it's alleviated by having leadership to guide you through those challenges. You're no more than two levels away from the CEO, who sits in the same office so there's plenty of quality facetime. Not just once a quarter quick visits.

What is the best part of working at the company?
I worked around some great colleagues who we collaborated well together to fill jobs for our clients.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
General stress of the economy which effects the business overall.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Mainly remote.  Twice a month we had onsite days where we could discuss exciting new projects, strategies and opportunities to fill many high level positions.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Work until the job is done.  This is an inherent trait of myself.  The day might last 8 hours speaking to candidates and customers.  Then additional sourcing hours at night as needed to win.

Low wages and no earned PTO for longhorn Health project. The training program is by far is unorganized and not structured. They gave me false expectations of getting hired and you’re not able to take any time off for 6 months straight with no work like balance. They encourage that concept with employee but not the temp employees. They promise you the option to work from home but that comes after 8 months with no tardiness or absences for 6 months straight which in these times is unrealistic. They have a high turn over rate with candidates only lasting 2-3 weeks and no call no shows every training class. 

I started working directly for The HT Group in November 2020, and I have never worked for a company that truly cares for their employees like they do! I started working within a week of my interview and have been treated with nothing but respect, honesty, and appreciation. It is such a warming feeling to have the support and direction that the Beaumont, Orange, and Austin office has given. I see this being a long lasting, fulfilling, and humbling career. It’s nice to wake up every day EXCITED to go to work and see what a new day brings. This company truly does care. 

Having worked with The HT Group as a client and candidate previous to working here as a Recruiter, I can honestly say that HT is the best staffing agency in Austin to work with or for.  We have amazing leadership that is supportive, motivating, and always available - from the top to first line supervisors.  There is transparency across the company in terms of goals and initiatives, and we are regularly asked about our experiences and opinions when decisions are made that effect us.  We work hard and play hard, have a great work/life balance, and all of our teams work very collaboratively to support our candidates and our clients.

A very positive work environment that allows you to collaborate with management, sales and other recruiters in an open way. They have created a Non-Micromanagement atmosphere where the focus is to find quality candidates and place them into good companies. In other words this is NOT a smile and dial agency that has junior recruiters blindly calling in the hopes of something working out. I have access to all the tools (job boards, postings, etc.) that allow me to be successful. There is a lot of growth and with the new direction things appear to be going the right way.

My experience was not great. There is no training or administrative person that spends an hour with you to introduce you or go over the basics etc. It is up to the individual to learn on the fly. The employees are very nice.

The job is not difficult, however with no guidance or training you just try to figure out the job on your own. Management is unskilled and says inappropriate comments to their team. Regarding “culture” they plan fun events, however there are unpleasant floggings as well. 

If you are a person who likes the professional setting, this place is not for you.
