Of course, but talented people are always in demand. The best job offers will come from clients and contacts, not from recruitment consultants.:D
Weasel; I don't understand why you think a recruiter would try and lower the salary the candidate gets offered? I spend my life trying make salaries higher... |
Re: Mechancial & Electrical Quantity Surveyor (MEP QS)
Simply because you are competing against other recruitment companies who will try offer similarly qualified or experienced candidates for less salary.
I don't think this btw, I see this more often than you'd expect. And in some cases unfortunately its the same candidate. Unless you have a deal to be the sole recruitment agency for a company? and thats not something I have seen |

Thank you everyone for your feedback.
I'm interested to know what the salary expectations should be in Qatar also? I know there's a lot of work out there at the moment, and people have shown interest, so I want to compare the two. A lot of the expected work has yet to come on stream fully. |

Unless you have a deal to be the sole recruitment agency for a company? and thats not something I have seen Fortunately I've done both; worked as a sole supplier but as a stand alone business and as I am now working will multiple clients. Every experience is so varied, it's why we're all labelled as shit. Such is.:) |
Re: Mechancial & Electrical Quantity Surveyor (MEP QS)
From your clients perspective it is logical, if I have 2 candidates of similar calibre and experience, I am going to choose the one who wants the lower salary. (all other things being equal)
If this is your guy then your agency will get the fee, if its not the the other agency will get the fee. Your clients will have multiple agencies. |

If the budget for an engineer is 10,000 per month, I'll stick three guys in at 8,000, 9,000 and 10,000 so the client see's different levels...better candiates don't always cost more but generally do, and generally are worth it. |

I understand what you're saying, but it's the classic argument of getting what you pay for.

We are going over it a little but the guy you have in at 10,000 maybe is in at 9,000 with another agency.
