Flat Fee Recruitment

When building a business or indeed replacing employees who have left your organisation, it is absolutely essential that you bring in the best people for the job. Conventional recruitment agencies are aware just how invaluable a reliable recruitment partner is to ensure that the best possible candidates are brought to interview and regularly charge anywhere between 10% and 20% of the new employee’s first year salary for finding them for you. If multiple staff are hired from a single recruitment campaign then many recruitment agencies will also charge multiple hire fees...in addition to placement fees. At Blue Octopus we can’t abide by these sliding scale costs and hidden charges – so we provide flat fee recruitment.

Flat fee recruitment (also referred to as fixed fee recruitment) means that we establish a fee for the recruitment campaign and charge precisely that fee on delivery. Even if you end up with 6 new directors from the recruitment initiative you’ll still only pay the flat fee we agreed at the beginning. Not only is this method a guarantee of great value but it also prevents budgetary restraints from stopping you from employing the best candidate or candidates due to the extra cost owed to the recruiter."
