Almost all representatives and recruiters from any type of placement/staffing agency works on commissions or bonuses based upon placements.

They earn a percentage of the fee that they charge your company. The higher the fee, the larger the commission that they personally make.

Many agencies do not check references!!

  • That is a fact. Their ultimate goal is to make a placement, regardless of their applicants past employment problems.
  • If they do check the references, it is usually at your request just before an offer will be extended to the applicant.
  • The one thing that could stand between them getting paid, is that reference.
  • Do you think you always get the most accurate information from the recruiter that wants to collect the placement fee from you and your organization?
  • Some agencies misrepresent their applicants and their previous experience so they can make the placement.

We will show you how to pass this reference fee on to your employment agency. They will pick up the cost if it is the difference between making the placement or not. If they are not willing to pick up the cost, then you should really consider if you are hiring the right candidate from the right agency.
