FAQs

How do recruitment agencies work?

We take your brief, then source, screen and reference-check candidates to deliver a vetted shortlist in 7 days — or you don't pay a cent. We coordinate interviews and feedback and manage the offer and onboarding, and every placement is backed by a 90-day guarantee: if they leave or underperform, we re-place free. No placement, no fee.

Do recruitment agencies work?

Used well, agencies save you time and surface candidates you wouldn't reach through advertising alone.

How do recruitment agencies work in australia?

In Australia, agencies place candidates for permanent roles and supply temp/contract workers. Permanent placement isn't subject to labour-hire licensing; temp/contract supply is in licensed states.

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 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.
