Do recruitment agencies take a cut of your salary?

Your wage isn't touched; the agency is paid by the client on top of what you earn.

How to contact recruitment agencies?

Contact us through the enquiry form, phone or email. Employers should outline the role and timeframe; candidates should attach a CV and note the roles and locations they're after.
