Contingency Recruitment

Contingency recruitment is a staffing approach where recruiters work on a fee basis, only getting paid if they successfully place a candidate with a client. In this model, multiple recruiters may compete to find the best candidates for a job opening. This means that companies can access a broader pool of candidates without upfront costs. Recruiters typically focus on filling roles quickly and efficiently, as their payment is contingent upon the successful hiring of a candidate. This method is common for positions that are urgent or where the hiring manager wants to see a variety of candidates.
