Should IT Recruiters Be Allowed to Play Music at Work?

IT recruiters are typically working 8-10 hour days, usually locked in an office, strapped to their desk sourcing through hundreds of resumes and talking to dozens of candidates each day.  While caffeine may help technical recruiters to physically get through each day, music can help mentally.  Therefore, should IT recruiting companies Boston allow their technical recruiters Boston to play music at their desk?  Overall, yes, however IT recruiting firms must provide some stipulations:

1)  One source of music for the entire IT staffing office.  If every IT recruiter has their own music playing, it will drown out conversations and ultimately be heard from IT contractors and candidates on the other end of the phone.

2)  The music must be kept at a soft volume.  The last thing IT recruiting agencies want is to lose credibility because their office sounds like a rock concert in the background of every phone call.

3)  No rap or offensive lyrics.  This is common sense.

Therefore, IT staffing firms should allow one source of music for their IT recruiters CA, but kept at low decibels without offensive lyrics.
