Some of the most frequently asked questions
How long does it take to hire a sales professional?
The whole recruiting process, from creating an Ideal Candidate Profile to signing the job offer, typically takes 2 to 4 weeks.
The timeline for hiring a sales professional can vary depending on several factors, such as the complexity of the role and the availability of qualified candidates in the desired location.
What is the difference between a full-time employee and a contractor?
Full-time employees are permanent staff who have a long-term commitment to the company. They work regular hours, receive medical benefits, and follow company policies.
Contractors are self-employed individuals engaged in specific projects. They have flexibility in working hours and location, handle their taxes, and lack benefits.
It's important to understand local labor laws to ensure proper classification. Consulting legal and HR professionals can help determine the appropriate arrangement for your business.
Will I have to pay the recruiting fee upfront?
While an upfront fee is typically required to initiate the process, we provide options for milestone-based payments. Contact our team to discuss the payment options that best suit your needs.
