Things recruiters ask first.
How much do I earn per placement?
Your fee is a percentage of the hire's salary — competitive rates agreed before any recruiter sees the brief. Exact terms are shown upfront in each brief.
Do I lose my fee if the candidate negotiates a lower salary?
Your fee is based on the final agreed salary. Our commission rates are competitive and transparent from the start.
Can I work briefs alongside my own clients?
Yes. Most recruiters on Upnest run their own desk and use Upnest for additional briefs. There's no exclusivity.
What happens if my candidate gets rejected?
You see structured feedback within 48 hours. Most recruiters use this to sharpen their pitch on the next submission for the same brief.
