How recruitment agencies make money
Recruitment agencies do not take a cut of your salary. Instead, they charge fees to the hiring companies for their services. These fees are often based on a percentage of the hired candidate's first-year salary or a flat fee agreed upon between the agency and the hiring company.
The purpose of these fees is to compensate the recruitment agency for their efforts in sourcing, screening, and presenting qualified candidates to the hiring company. This arrangement allows job seekers to receive their full salary without any deductions by the recruitment agency.
It's important to note that the specifics of fee arrangements can vary between agencies and may be negotiable between the agency and the hiring company.
As a job seeker, you don't have to worry about your salary being reduced by the recruitment agency's fees. Instead, you can focus on finding the right job opportunity through their services.
