At Hire Grid, you have full control over how much commission you offer for a successful hire. Unlike traditional recruitment agencies that charge a fixed percentage, Hire Grid allows you to choose a commission rate between 12% and 40% of the candidate’s annual base salary.
How Does Commission Work?
When you post a job, you set the commission percentage.
Recruiters see the job listing and prioritize roles with higher commission rates.
Once a candidate is hired, you pay the agreed commission within 30 days of signing the offer letter.
What’s the Recommended Commission Rate?
While you can set any rate between 12% and 40%, we recommend offering at least 20% to attract more recruiters. Jobs with commission rates below 15% may receive less attention.
Example Commission Calculation:
Let’s say you hire a candidate with a $100,000 annual base salary and set the commission at 20%. Your total cost would be:
✅ 20% of $100,000 = $20,000
When Do I Pay the Commission?
The commission is due within 30 days of the candidate signing the offer letter. Payments are made directly through Hire Grid’s secure platform.
What If the Candidate Leaves?
Hire Grid offers a 90-day guarantee. If the candidate leaves or is terminated within the first 30 days, you receive a full refund of the commission paid. If they leave after 30 days, refund amount will be less.
