FAQs
What is a recruitment agency?
A recruitment agency finds, screens and places candidates into jobs for employers — for permanent roles, and for temp or contract assignments. The employer pays the agency; candidates are never charged.
How do recruitment agencies charge?
Agencies charge the employer two ways: a percentage of salary for permanent placements, or an hourly margin above the worker's pay rate for temp and contract. Candidates are never charged.
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 you need a labour hire licence to recruit permanent staff in New South Wales?
