... from the initial brief being taken to the follow up calls with yourself and the candidate after they have taken up employment with your company. See our complete 'Recruitment Process' for the full list of steps we go through on behalf of our clients.

Again, there are a number of agencies out there that are offering a less than thorough recruitment process, and charging enormous fees to do so. Due to the current shortage of quality staff in Australia, some agencies are getting away with this, which is a shame. At Key Recruitment we charge a sliding percentage of the annual salary, which is below industry standards, for the position we are recruiting for. This is one of the most competitive fees we have found throughout Australia.

One of Australia's largest (but by no means best) agencies charges up to 22% of the total salary package to fill a role! Remember, being the biggest doesn't necessarily mean you get the best candidates.
