Contingency vs. Retained...
Both are valuable…..but, Which Recruiting Model is Best For You? FACT 1: Contingency is candidate driven. Retained is client driven.
FACT 2:
Contingency. . . A "first with the most" mindset; most of these recruiters do not have a sense of ownership as they know many others are working to fill the same assignment. Retained. . . A complete selection process is established up-front, thereby creating a true partnership, consulting agreement, and motivation for assisting the client in identifying the very best pool of candidates. Only then can the “right” hire be made. Contingency. . . Multiple recruiters working on the client’s behalf can create confusion for potential candidates getting different messages. Retained. . . The client knows a consistent message is being conveyed to prospective candidates. As a result, the interview process will be much easier for the client to assess in evaluating finalist. Contingency. . . This method relies on advertising and a database of resumes (usually stale and unemployed). Why this method? Because speed is vital in contingency recruiting. They must produce before other contingency firms or lose out on a fee. Retained. . . The focus is on recruiting fully screened and qualified candidates . . . who are not usually looking for another position. Also, accountability is vital to the retained firm. . . hence the reason they’re driven to work on the assignment until the position is successfully completed. . . no matter how long it takes.
