Simon Wilkinson, Chairman of Hiring Hub
You're in good company...
feel for our business and the way in which we operate, but creating a good brief that was passed on to each recruiter proved invaluable in order to get the right candidates. I most definitely recommend Hiring Hub's marketplace to internal recruitment teams, we're over the moon with the process.

What is the candidate's rebate period?
As with everything Hiring Hub, we’ve tried to keep the candidate’s rebate period really simple and transparent. It lasts for 60 days from the candidate’s start date. If a candidate doesn’t work out during this period, subject to our marketplace Terms of Business (you can read them here), you will be refunded as follows:
0-45 days – 100% of the Placement Fee
46-60 days – 50% of the Placement Fee
What placement fee should I set to incentivise recruiters?
Over the last 12 months (and rounded down to a whole number) the average fee on the marketplace was 15%. However, it’s a dynamic marketplace and fees can vary widely depending on sectors, location, market conditions, seniority of role, etc. If you’re unsure, or simply want some impartial advice, call us on: 0000 000 0000. Our account managers are experts, with deep knowledge of the marketplace, its recruiter community, and the wider recruitment industry so they’re able to share market intelligence with you in real time and offer benchmarks while advising on best practice.
How many recruitment agencies should I engage on a role?
We recommend no more than three. Recruiters have to weigh up not only the fee you’re willing to pay, but also how likely it is they’ll get that fee. If you engage too many recruiters, the likelihood of them getting a fee gets smaller, reducing their appetite to throw the kitchen sink at your candidate search. If, however, they’re confident they can find great candidates and there’s a strong chance they’ll get the fee, and you engage with them throughout the process, you’re much more likely to get a positive result.
What type of jobs get filled on the marketplace?
The marketplace was built to connect employers to specialist recruitment consultants, so typically jobs are white collar and technical in nature, where specific experience is required. We have recruitment consultants covering all areas of the UK and Europe, across the majority of sectors, including: IT & Digital, Finance & Accounting, Engineering & Manufacturing, Construction & Rail, HR & Legal, Sales & Marketing, Executive, Retail, Property and Pharma.
Our three top performing sectors in terms of jobs posted during the last 12 months have been Digital & IT, Sales & Marketing, Finance & Accountancy, and Engineering & Manufacturing. We keep an up-to-date management dashboard of key marketplace information, which has lots of information on sectors, fill rates, recruitment agency coverage, etc. So we can share with you real time market intelligence when setting up your account and qualifying your jobs – just ask.
Does Hiring Hub vet recruitment agencies to ensure quality?
We do, yes. We speak to every recruiter that wishes to become a member to find out more about them, and to give them some insight into how we work and what we expect from them.
Once an agency is approved, the platform monitors their activity and performance (how many jobs do they work on, how many CVs do they submit per job, how many of those candidates get to first interview, second interview, offer stage, etc.) This, married to any verified marketplace reviews they collect from employers and/or candidates, influences their profile score and gives you a good idea on who might be able to find you the best candidates.
Can all the recruiters see my vacancy and contact details?
No. When you upload a job to the marketplace we keep your details anonymous; agencies can only see limited information, like the job title, location, sector, salary, and the fee you’ve set. Only the recruiters you approve to work on your vacancy can view the full job brief, and your preferred method of communication. Once you have engaged a recruiter, we recommend joining a briefing call so they can really get under the skin of the vacancy, and learn more about your company.
If I upload a job will I be inundated with CVs?
No, you can decide how many CVs each recruitment agency you engage with is able to submit. So you can approve, say, three recruitment agencies to work on your vacancy, but only let them submit two candidates each. So you’ll get a maximum shortlist of six candidates to review.
Can I add more than one user to my marketplace account?
Yes, you can add unlimited users to your company’s account. This can centralise your company’s recruitment activity, allowing hiring managers to login, view, and review CVs, too.
If you need any help setting up, call our support team: 0000 000 0000 or use the website’s Live Chat function (at the bottom right-hand corner of your dashboard), which will connect you straight to us so we can help.
What happens if I receive the same candidate from two different recruitment agencies?
There is a digital footprint of each candidate submission, which are time stamped. Our Terms state that, provided the recruitment consultant correctly sought the Right to Represent the candidate, the consultant that submitted the candidate first “owns” the candidate, and the second submission will be marked as a duplicate.
Can I add my own PSL to Hiring Hub to keep everything in one place?
Yes. You can subscribe to Portal and use it as a recruitment agency management tool, allowing you to consolidate all third-party recruitment agency activity on one platform for greater visibility of metrics, performance and spend, rapid onboarding of new suppliers, and simplify payments and invoicing. Speak to us to learn more.
