Hiring Startup

How much does it cost to post a job?

ZERO! Once you are registered on the 2dgres system it is completely free to post a job. 2dgres only take a cut of the final fee from the recruiter when the Job has been filled and the employee starts working. We never charge you a penny to use the platform. Your Success is our Success!

You only get Invoiced by 2dgres accounts team when the selected candidate commencement of employment as confirmed by you and the recruiter. Your Company then has 14 days to pay the invoice. This is usual done by wire transfer. Remember the fee is then held with 2dgres in escrow for up to 3 months with the first 60 days offering a 100% money back guarantee, and from 61 to 90 days you have a 50% money back guarantee.

Recruiters get paid through our escrow system, they are paid 50% of their portion of the fee after 61days, and the remaining 50% after 91 days.

The job post closes after you have accepted 5 bids or after 1 month. After both scenarios it is removed from the marketplace.

The great thing about 2dgres is that you get to pick and choose which Recruiters to work with – we suggest always working with a minimum of 2 and a max of 5.

Each of the recruiters have detailed statistics and feedback about their previous work and we suggest going through those before picking the recruiter.

This is totally up to you, being a true marketplace means the recruiters get the chance to bid what they believe is fair for their time. Some recruiters might bid low because they have some downtime – some might bid low because they are freelancing on 2dgres.

The high bids usually come from experienced busy recruiters – so pick the bid that makes sense to you or pick a number of bids with various bid values to give you choice.

When you accept a bid from a recruiter or multiple recruiters – up to 5 – then a workspace opens up between you and that recruiter.

This Workspace is a chat room for you and the recruiter to discuss more about the Job – as well as given a space for the recruiter to upload CV’s.

Please keep all communication in the Workspace this way 2dgres can track everything that is happening.

Anything that happens outside of the Workspace would be done at your own risk. Should any dispute arise then only the data in the Workspace will be considered in finding an agreement.

When you upload a Job your contact details will not be shown – and no one will be able to send you CVs until you accept their bid which opens a workspace with the recruiter.

Currently there is no option to disengage any recruiter. We suggest that you let them know in the workspace to stop working on your role.

Please note though that recruiter has submitted any candidates and you end up hiring one of them the recruiter will still be paid fairly.

Remember all CV’s are time stamped when they come into our system.

You can certainly talk to the candidate yes but would need permission from the recruiter. Most CV’s are often submitted without the candidate’s contact details to prevent the recruiter from being bypassed.

In order to progress with a particular candidate, you should ask to interview them by sending a request to the recruiter through your workspace. This will be received by the recruiter, who can arrange for an interview at the time and place or method you like.

2dgres does not get involved in any of the interview arrangements.

Remember keep all communication in the Workspace.

If you already have the CV of the Candidate that is uploaded by the recruiter than please let them know immediately via the Workspace.

Should you ask the recruiter to arrange an interview than you are confirming that the Candidate is attached with that particular recruiter and should you hire the Candidate than the 2dgres fee will be payable.

Please be aware that CV’s are time stamped in our back-office system.

There is a hire button in every workspace – when you have found the right candidate hit the Hire button within the workspace of that Recruiter and a form should appear with some fields that you will need to fill in.

This information will be sent to our accounts team.

It will also be verified from the Recruiters side who will have an identical form to fill in.

When the Job has been successfully filled by the Recruiter and the candidate has started work then you will be invoiced the winning calculated fee whether that be fixed fee or % of annual salary on the starting date of the candidate.

An invoice will be sent to you from our accounts team and your Company will have 14 days to pay the fee. This is usual done by wire transfer. Remember the fee is then held with 2dgres in escrow for the first 60 days and you have a 100% money back guarantee, and from 61 to 90 days you have a 50% money back guarantee.

When the Hire button is pressed, and the pop-up form is filled in by you – this is then sent to 2dgres account team for processing.

If the candidate leaves the employment for any reason (except where the Candidate is made redundant, or a change in management) then you have the same protection as you would be using any agency in fact probably even better.

0 – 60 days – 100% money back guarantee.

61 – 90 days – 50% money back guarantee.

Following the closing of a Job we ask both the Employer and the Recruiter to leave a review about each other so as to best inform others and make our community great and as open and transparent as possible.

RECRUITERS

Absolutely nothing – its completely free!! 2dgres only take a % cut from a Job that you fill with an Employer.

However your recruitment profile will need to valid – this site is only open to serious recruiters currently.

We validate this by looking into your LinkedIn Profile – we don’t believe a recruiter can actually be a recruiter without a LinkedIn Profile.

Using 2dgres’s unique Marketplace you can search for jobs that have been posted by Employers that suit your industry or functional specialization as well as your geographical location.

When you find a job that you think you have the right candidates for then you can press the bid button. A pop-up window will show and allow you to bid in two ways:

  • As a % of the total annual salary.
  • As a fixed fee.

You decide what is better for each job – you can always change your bid at a later time as long as the job is still open for bidding.

Remember there are other Recruiters bidding so make your bid as competitive as you think possible.

We invoice the Employer on Day 1 of your candidate starting work with them – and do everything to collect the money before the first pay out date to the Recruiter on the 61st day. However, as you can imagine there are scenarios where clients do not pay on time – we will inform you of this in advance. We will continue to the peruse action against the Employer until we receive the funds. 2dgres however will not be liable for the funds at any point.

Jobs are open until the Employer has chosen 5 Recruiters to work on the Job or a maximum of 1 month.

We show all the other Recruiters bids in a table format so you can see roughly where the other bids are.

The Employer usually chooses 1 to 5 Recruiters for any one Job. When you have been chosen you will receive an e-mail notification and then from your dashboard you can now access the Workspace (Workspace button) between you and the Employer.

If you are a Recruitment Agency and would like to get your Recruiters to start using the site then please reach out to us at info@2dgres.com and we can discuss an arrangement.

When you have won a bid then a Workspace is opened.

The Workspace is a chat room for you and the Employer to discuss more about the job – as well as to have space to upload CV’s through upload button.

Please keep all communication in the Workspace this way 2dgres can track everything that is happening.

Anything that happens outside of the Workspace would be done at your own risk. Should any dispute arise then only the data in the Workspace will be considered in finding an agreement.

You can upload your candidates directly into the Job through your workspace – you will see the upload candidate CV button to the Job.

Be careful though the system monitors how many CV’s you are uploading which can affect your statistics when bidding for future Jobs.

Also please be aware the candidate’s CV’s are time stamped so as no duplicated candidates can overlap.

The Employer will ask for interviews through the workspace – make sure all your communication stays on the Workspace that way 2dgres can monitor all actions should any disputes arise in future.

You will see that there will be a status update next to the Candidates name if the Employer has asked requested an interview

It is the duty of the Employer to inform you immediately if they have the Candidate already in their database or from another Recruiter.

Should they ask you to arrange an interview with the Candidate they are confirming that the Candidate is yours.

This is done from the Employer side but when its pressed you will be sent an e-mail by our accounts team asking you for confirmation of the hire – including the salary agreed upon. This is important for you to fill in correctly as we calculate your fee from this.

We will also ask you to confirm the start date of the Candidate.

The Employer should inform 2dgres of the change in start date which we will confirm with you to make sure that everything is done fairly.

You get paid what was agreed upon at the start of the process – either a % of the agreed salary or a fixed amount as agreed.

2dgres takes a 20% cut from the total fee and you get to keep the 80%.

You get paid through a transfer to your bank account of choice – which we will ask you on hiring of candidate.

You get the following payment:

  • 50% of your total fee (minus 50% of 2dgres 20% fee) on the 61st day after the Candidate starts work.
  • 50% of your total fee (minus final part of 2dgres’s fee) on day 91st day after the Candidate starts work.

Please note that we will only transfer to a bank account in your name and not any third-party accounts unless specifically expressed to do so from your email address.

The Employer has a very clear refund policy, which is as follows:

  • 0 – 60 days – 100% money back guarantee.
  • 61 – 90 days – 50% money back guarantee.

The payment of your fee is reflected similarly as this:

  • Should your candidate resign or lose their job from day 0 to 60, you will not be due a fee.
  • Should your candidate resign or lose their job between 61 and 90 days, you will be due 50% of your fee.

Off course we will reach out to the Employer ourselves to make sure that the candidate reason falls within the limits of our agreements meaning except where the Candidate is made redundant, or a change in management.

Following the closing of a Job we ask both the Employer and the Recruiter to leave a review about each other so as to best inform others and make our community great and open and transparent as possible.
