Is the Sigma Network Right for You?
We offer two distinct pathways based on your current experience level.
Pathway 1: Experienced Consultant
-
3+ Years of Recruitment Experience
Proven track record in a specialist recruiting niche (agency or in-house).
-
Self-Managed and Goal-Oriented
You operate autonomously, managing your own pipeline without daily supervision.
-
Ready to Handle Client Needs
You can immediately screen, interview, and close candidates on high-value roles.
Pathway 2: Trainee Consultant (Intern)
-
High Motivation and Eagerness to Learn
You have no prior experience but a strong work ethic and desire to enter recruitment.
-
Ability to Commit Part-Time Hours
You can dedicate consistent, flexible hours for structured training and mentored tasks.
-
Open to Performance-Based Training
Initial roles are training-focused, transitioning to commission after proficiency is achieved.
*Note: All roles are commission-only. The Trainee Consultant pathway is highly selective and focuses on providing the necessary mentorship and infrastructure to transition into a full independent role.

Common Questions Answered
Is there an opportunity for people new to recruitment, like interns?
Yes! We occasionally offer an **Apprentice Consultant track** for high-potential, self-motivated individuals with no prior experience. This track includes intensive training, mentorship, and a structured, performance-based path to earning full commission. Apply and specify your interest in the Apprentice track.
Is this full-time or part-time?
Your choice! Some consultants do this **part-time** alongside other work, others commit full-time. We're flexible as long as you're delivering results.
What if I don't make any placements?
You earn nothing that month. This is performance-based. However, we provide support, leads, and training to help you succeed. Most experienced consultants make their first placement within 6-8 weeks.
Are there any costs to join?
No fees to join. You're responsible for your own equipment (laptop, phone), internet, and business costs (transport, etc.). No hidden fees or monthly charges.
