Engaged Search is a logical and attractive combination of both contingency and retained fee structures. This is among the best type of working relationships. This type of K-12 recruitment is strongly recommended when you prefer a contractually committed and fully engaged search relationship, but you do not want to commit to a fully retained search fee structure.
Fees Involved in the K-12 Engaged Search
In the K-12 Engaged Search, the client pays an engagement fee of $5,000 prior to the start of a search. The balance of the fee becomes due after the candidate begins employment. The service charge is 28% – 30% of the candidate’s first year’s compensation.
Other Expenses
We do pass on “at cost” client-approved expenses: These are inclusive of the K-12 candidate’s travel to interview at the client, client-requested job advertising, background check, degree verification, drug tests, etc.
We do not charge “administrative fees” to cover phone charges, printing, typing, copying, faxing, etc in our K-12 searches. We view these as normal and customary parts of the service we provide.
