Revenue model

1. Contingency-Based Recruitment Fees: Recruitment Partners charges employers a fee based on a percentage of the placed candidate's first-year salary for successful hires. This is the primary revenue stream for filling permanent positions. For Executive Search engagements, alternative fee structures such as flat fees or retainers may apply. The company does not charge candidates for their services.
2. Executive Search Retainer/Flat Fee: For executive-level placements and specialized searches, Recruitment Partners uses retainer or flat fee arrangements, which differ from the standard percentage-of-salary model used for general recruitment.
