Every agreement we write carries a guarantee. A longer guarantee costs more because we stand behind the hire for longer.
| Guarantee | Contingency | Retained | Retained + Volume |
|---|---|---|---|
| 60 days | 25% | 20% | |
| 90 days | 15% | ||
| 120 days | 30% | 25% | |
| 180 days | 33% | 28% | 20% |
When a placement starts, you receive the exact fee, the start date and the guarantee end date, and you confirm whether the candidate reported to work before anything is paid. What happens inside the window is written into your agreement. Shannon Drews, HR Director at MacKay Manufacturing, put it this way: “We also had one that didn’t work out and Hans was great about sending us a replacement candidate.”
