Simple, contingent pricing
We keep our fee structure straightforward: if we do not help you make a successful hire, you do not pay a placement fee.
HOW PRICING WORKS
How our fee model works
US Veteran Talent works on a contingent basis for most searches.
we align on the role
we begin recruiting
we present qualified candidates
you only pay a placement fee if you hire a candidate we introduce and the hire remains employed through the agreed guarantee period
This structure allows employers to engage us with minimal upfront risk.
Placement Fees
Our standard fee is typically expressed as a percentage of the candidate’s first-year base salary.
Depending on the role, search requirements, and hiring volume, that fee is generally in the range of:
20% of first-year base compensation
| Base Salary | Estimated Fee |
|---|---|
| $50,000 | $10,000 |
| $60,000 | $12,000 |
| $70,000 | $14,000 |
| $80,000 | $16,000 |
* Final fee terms are confirmed in the client agreement and may vary based on role type, volume, and search complexity.
