As a recruiter on Hire Grid, your earnings depend on the commission set by the client for each job. The best part? You receive 80% of the total commission paid by the client.

How Your Earnings Are Calculated

1️⃣ Clients set a commission rate between 12% and 40% of the candidate’s annual base salary.


2️⃣ When you successfully place a candidate, you receive 80% of that commission.


3️⃣ Hire Grid keeps 20% to cover platform operations, support, and administrative costs.

Example Earnings Calculation

Let’s say you place a candidate with a $100,000 annual salary, and the client set a 20% commission rate:


Total Commission Paid by the Client: $20,000
Your Earnings (80% of $20,000): $16,000
Hire Grid’s Fee (20%): $4,000
