Research2Recruit.com was established to provide employers with a powerful solution to resolve their recruitment problems, at very competitive rates compared to services offered through advertisements, recruitment agencies, executive search firms, job boards etc.

Research2Recruit’s research services enable you to:

1. Attract and consider a different population of candidates, i.e. only those who are currently and successfully employed, by companies of your choice, and who are usually not accessible by other means.
2. Operate in absolute confidentiality, without risk of having people “guessing” that you are recruiting.
3. Control your recruitment expenses, and pay only for the value that you wish to purchase, step by step.
4. Maintain full control of candidate assessment and selection from a manageable list without having to pay for it.
5. Hire as many candidates as you want without paying additional fees for each one.
   

We have experience in most business sectors, at senior and middle management levels. We can operate in English and in French.

Fees

Our rates are determined according to the level of expertise required X workload. Each project is carefully estimated in number of days required to complete it and a precise quote is always provided upfront, before any commitment is made by both parties.

High volume or ongoing annual agreements can also be worked out, particularly interesting to companies who want to strategically manage their recruitment operations by anticipating them.

Our fees are always inferior to those offered by regular recruitment/search agencies (retainer or contingency). For senior executives, board directors, managers and specialists, in whom we excel, they are amazingly lower.

Please contact us to discuss our fee structure in more detail.

*Research2Recruit.com complies with the principles of Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act, and all other regulations that may apply, which may limit the type of information that we are able to collect. We always advise you upfront on these limitations.
