Know the recruitment cost before the local search begins.
Fixed Price Recruitment04For a defined salaried appointment, People HQ can propose a clear fee linked to the agreed role and salary bracket. This gives the employer greater cost certainty than an open-ended percentage of the successful candidate’s salary.
The proposal sets out the search scope, inclusions, payment points and replacement terms before work starts. Pricing and replacement terms are discussed with clients and included in proposals and terms.
Ongoing local recruitment capacity for teams with roles always open.
Talent PartnerTalent Partner is a flexible Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) solution for businesses with ongoing or higher-volume recruitment needs.
People HQ works as an extension of the client’s team, with priorities, scope, capacity and reporting agreed for each partnership.
