Nothing is totally fair as far as job hunting is concerned, but if you need the job you have to do everything humanly possible to get it

[quote author=prefy post=45543863]I will like to find out your views on the terms and conditions of this company. They help people get jobs. They first test you to see whether you are qualified or not. They then work on your CV and submit it to the prospective employer. They also give you all the assistance you need before, during and after the interview with the employer to ensure you get the job. They do no ask for money while helping out with this but when you get the job, you are required to pay the company 50% of either your first two-month or 50% of your first three-month salary, depending on what you get as salary.

Do you think is fair enough for the applicant and the company?

Thanks. [/q

Why wait for other individuals to get empowered? You have all it take to make it real BIG.

I do not think it is fair on the job seeker. In a saner society, their services should be paid by the benefiting company because the agency is doing the work of the HR department. But like most Nigerians would agree, anything goes here.

You just addressed the companies as "Employment Agencies"

An agent is one who acts as on behalf of another in a contractual relationship to provide information and agreed support. This relationship doesn't exist for free, it's professional so the services has to be paid for.

Now, the issue should be; are the charges reasonable and fair?

Nigerian agencies own too dey hard

Employment Agencies are professionally run organisations which maintains very high ethical standards. The companies DO NOT in any way deduct from employees remunerations. Outsourcing is about the provision of services to organisations who ordinarily would have handled the outsourced functions internally but rather decided to outsource in order to focus on their core competencies/functions or business.

Employees are given Offer of Employment Letters which detail the Gross remunerations of the concerned staff, and this is strictly adhered to. They also deliberately domicile the salary accounts of their employees working in the Banks with the respective Banks they are posted to, so as to allow for transparency. This gives the Bank the privilege to check if they short change the employees.

They do not have any need to deduct your salary when you get the job because they are paid professional fees by the clients they provide outsourcing services to.
you are mixing it up bro, it's a 2type thing.
some company outsource to the agent then tell the agent to get the staff, in this case, the agent get his commission in bulk or monthly base on a certain cumulative amount or monthly percentage.
another scenario is that the agent conduct the recruiting process, agreed on a percentage with you the employee, seek for any company that will pay you, then the company will give a standing order to that effect.
the implication of the former is that if 2persons are working for the same organization, the agent will get the same commission on both, while for the latter, the 2 of them might not remit same commission depending on their negotiating power, however, the agent might have a negotiating power big enough to charge them both the same commission.

My dear, it is fair enough. Even if they take 70% of your salary is better than searching for a whole lots of time.
Re: Is this fair on a job applicant? by folks4luv(f): 10:26am On May 13, 2016
not really bad to pay them for like 2 to 3 months, they functioned as a bridge, press buttons for you, you should pay them. but I have prob with those that collect salary on your behalf and give you out of it, that one is modern day slavery. those that ask you to subscribe yearly too are fraud, they don't get the job for you, you pay them to submit your CV and if you don't get d job, not their biz cause you v paid them in advance.

At least the payment is to be made after u get the job and not upfront when you're not even sure about whether you will get d job or not

Yes, they don't collect any money from you until you get the job and pay the agreed amount.
Re: Is this fair on a job applicant? by Walexsammy(m): 10:59am On May 13, 2016
truthalways:
@Op, I know some recruitment agencies that would always collect a certain percentage of all your salaries; this is because your employer pays them rather than pay you. These agencies for example might negotiate to be paying you 100k while in actual sense, they are receiving 150k from your employer monthly.

Examples are security recruitment outfits and even some popular recruitment agencies. I wouldn't want to mention names.
Na, this case is different the OP is talking about recruiting agencies, 1while ure talking about Contractors

alphaStoner:
50 % is too much, 20 percent in 3months is better, you know how hard the country is, even 50% may not sort transport and feeding for a month you know

Yea but according to their policy, they only forward your application to a company they know will pay far better than what you're currently earning, such that even after paying the 50%, what is left in your pocket will still be more than your previous salary and you pay them for only two or three months.

They may take legal action against you. Remember, you signed an undertaking that you wil pay. But why will someone think about not paying after all they have done for you and after you willingly signed an undertaking?

Some of you guys saying you need a link to the agent for job.If you eventually got the job through the agent,by the time they remove the percentage for 3 month you go begin fight them.
Re: Is this fair on a job applicant? by Nobody: 12:34pm On May 13, 2016
Some agents are dubious.My friend had a bitter experience with one.He approached the agent for a job.After paying registration fee and others which runs to about #3k he was given a letter to submit to a company.When he got there,the company said they don't know the agent.When he opened the letter to read it content.It read that the company should be paying his salaries into the,agent,account number they provided in the letter.My guy weak.
