How much does a recruitment agency cost?
The costs of a recruitment agency can vary depending on the number of jobs they are trying to fill and the scarcity of candidates in the market. For example, if there is a lot of competition for talent, the agency may charge more to find the best candidates. On average, agencies typically charge between 15-25% of the first year’s salary for their services. Sometimes agencies also require a retainer fee or an upfront payment to cover advertising costs.
