The Traditional Agencies Problem

Traditional recruitment agencies in the Gulf charge 8–15% of annual salary or 1-month salary per worker placed. When you're hiring 50 workers, that's a quarter-million in agency fees before anyone even starts working. It's a broken model.

  • Placement fees: 1-month salary per worker (or 8–15% annual)
  • Hiring 50 workers = 50× placement fees
  • Hidden costs: visa processing, medical, travel charged separately
  • Slow turnaround — weeks to shortlist candidates
  • No technology — everything done via email and phone calls
