<prompt> Human: I was offered a recruiter position and the manager was explaining the salary where its a lower for 6 months and then you get the full base salary plus commission after. Is this common? I havent heard of it and am already on the fence about taking this position. Any insight would be appreciated!  <response>: Yes, probationary periods are common. eg, you arent permanent for 3 or 6 months.Salary-adjusted probationary periods are less common... make sure that your salary meets minimum wage requirements in your state eg, in California, a salaried employee must make at least double minimum wage. Also make sure that your pay will be at least minimum wage when you consider all the hours you will put in.Regardless, make sure to get the salary change promise in writing, with a date. Ive seen too many companies promise Oh, youll get a raise at 6 months... and then 6 months later, No, we dont do that.
