Are Recruitment Fees Slowing Down Your Hiring? Recruit Now and Pay Later!

The biggest game-changer we’ve seen in the recruitment industry for a while is here – a Recruit Now, Pay Later option. You need people, you need help to find them quickly to get your business going but you don’t have the budget or the cashflow to do it. Imagine if you could hire the talent you need and then pay the fee off in smaller instalments over a few months while not losing the placement guarantee?

One of the most frustrating things in business is needing something right now to go to the next level but not having the ready cash to secure it.

This is never truer than when you’re hiring staff – you need people, you need help to find them quickly to get your business going but you don’t have the budget or the cashflow to do it.

Or you engage a recruiter and they find you what you need but you then hold the invoice over for a month or two until you’ve got the spare cash. The only problem with that approach, apart from pissing your recruiter off and getting a reputation for not paying your bills, is that you’ve voided your guarantee period, so if your new hire doesn’t work out, you’ve missed out on your free replacement!

Imagine if you could hire the talent you need and then pay the fee off in smaller instalments over a few months while not losing the placement guarantee?

Well, now you can! Introducing the Recruit Now, Pay Later option

The biggest game-changer we’ve seen in the recruitment industry for a while is here – a recruit now, pay later option.

And we’re offering it to all our clients here at Just Right People in partnership with industry leader Selectpay.

Regardless of which flexible billing option you choose – pay by the hour, fixed fee or percentage of salary, you can defer your payments to suit your budget.

How does it work?

The concept of After Pay has been around for a while – heck, there’s even a company that’s been smart enough to call themselves just that – you buy what you need when you need it and pay it off over time. Like the old lay-by system but in reverse.

Here’s how it works for recruitment:

1. The recruitment process doesn’t change. You still get the same advertising and search services and the same terms and conditions that you’re used to.
2. A placement is made and your recruiter invoices you
3. You opt for the Recruit Now, Pay Later option on the invoice, initiating your relationship with the after pay provider
4. Your recruiter gets paid on time by the after pay provider, thereby protecting your guarantee period
5. You get the ultimate financial flexibility of spreading your recruitment fees out over a period of time

So, everyone wins – the recruiter gets paid, your placement guarantee is protected, and you get to spread your payments out over a period of months.

But first, make sure your recruiter offers the recruit now, pay later option.

Recruit the staff you need without the financial pressure and free up your time to get on with your job.

We know that recruitment fees are often a barrier to clients so they often end up trying to do the work themselves.

While this sounds like a good plan, it doesn’t always go well – it takes longer, it interrupts your normal business responsibilities, and you often end up making a poor hire because the process hasn’t been robust enough.

Now you can outsource to the professionals, get the quick result you want, have the peace of mind of a placement guarantee and not worry about a lump sum bill.

Just Right People already offer flexible billing models. Now you can also have a flexible payment option – it doesn’t get much better than that!

Recruitment your way!
