How does a Recruitment Agency calculate fees for hiring Permanent Staff?
A robust recruitment process conducted by a skilled recruitment team is not a small or simple task. A significant amount of time, effort and expertise goes into finding and hiring the best available candidate.
Permanent placement fees range from 16 to 25% of the salary package.
These fees cover the recruitment team's time and labour. While it might be tempting to opt for in-house recruitment, it’s important to consider what you’re paying for, before you go down the DIY route.
