Hi all
I have been in a new role for 6 months. In my position, I get to access all the financials for the project, so it's openly known what my recruiter is making from me. The current rate is 16% which I feel is too high.
I am now being offered a 6 month extension and I really want the agency to drop this. I don't know what the norm is, but I feel 16% is too much.
I have asked for this before and the recruiter simply delayed it by saying we'll talk if you get renewed. I have a feel he's not going to listen though, so I want to know what other people here have done to get the commission reduced?
The agency may choose to just tell me to piss off - I get that, but it never hurts to try in my opinion. As I've not done this much before, I thought it would be good to see if anyone else has been in the same situation
I'm also busting my balls in the job - I need to work and can handle the stress, but it's not walk in the park. Its highly unlikely they'll find someone else just to slot in as it's quite a demanding project. I also have a good relationship with my boss and feel he might pay a bit more, but I don't want to just hold him to ransom. Even if they payed more, the
agent really needs to reduce his percentage
