FAQ

Contingent recruitment: your questions answered.

What is contingent recruitment?

Contingent recruitment means the recruiter is paid only when a candidate they introduce is hired. Success-Based Hiring is our contingent model: no retainer and no upfront cost.

How is Success-Based Hiring different from a typical recruitment agency?

You get specialist recruiters who headhunt passive candidates, not only advertise roles. We take a detailed brief on your role, market and culture, and keep you updated through every stage, from shortlist to offer.

Which roles do you recruit for?

Technology roles such as software engineering, AI and data, product and IT, and commercial roles such as sales, customer success and finance.

When should I choose the Embedded Hiring Team instead?

When you have ongoing or high-volume hiring. Embedded recruitment (RPO) with one monthly fee gives you predictable costs and a recruiter who knows your team.
