FAQs
What is a recruitment agency?
A recruitment agency does the hiring legwork — search, screening and shortlisting — and is paid by the employer, not the candidate.
How do recruitment agencies get paid?
The employer pays the agency — a percentage of salary on permanent placements, or an hourly margin on temp and contract hours. Candidates are never charged for being placed.
Do recruitment agencies take a cut of your salary?
No — the agency's fee is paid by the employer and is separate from your salary. For permanent roles you receive your full agreed wage; the placement fee doesn't come out of it.
How much do recruitment agencies charge per hour?
The hourly charge bundles the worker's pay with a margin for super, insurance and our service — quoted up front per role.
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.
