FAQs
How to address a cover letter to a recruitment agency?
Open to the specific recruiter if you can, name the role or field you're after, and summarise your relevant experience briefly.
How do recruitment agencies get paid?
Agencies are paid by the hiring company: a placement fee for permanent roles or an hourly margin for contract work.
Do recruitment agencies charge candidates?
Candidates don't pay — our fee comes from the hiring company. Any agency charging jobseekers a placement fee is a red flag.
Do you need a labour hire licence to recruit permanent staff in Victoria?
Permanent placement is exempt from labour hire licensing — we lead with RCSA membership and structured candidate vetting. Temp and contract placements in VIC are supplied under our VIC labour hire licence.
