FAQs
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.
Are recruitment agencies worth it?
They're worth it when speed, reach or screening matter; the fee is contingent on a placement, so an unfilled role costs you nothing.
Do recruitment agencies charge candidates?
No — reputable agencies are paid by the employer, not the candidate. Registering, being represented and being placed are free for jobseekers. Be wary of anyone asking candidates for placement fees.
Why use a recruitment agency?
An agency saves time, taps a wider candidate pool, and lets you choose from a pre-vetted shortlist.
Do you need a labour hire licence to recruit permanent staff in New South Wales?
Permanent placement is exempt from labour hire licensing — we lead with RCSA membership and structured candidate vetting. Temp and contract placements are covered under our interstate labour hire licences, Fair Work and workers compensation.
