The best alternative to Adecco
Is Adecco’s high fee draining your recruitment budget?
Switch to our cost-effective staffing and payrolling platform
Get transparent pricing compared to companies like Adecco
Staffing companies like Adecco work on the traditional markup model, which means they charge a markup based on the role you want to fill. The markup typically ranges from 30% to 50% of the salary of the hired contractor, and gets deducted from your recruitment budget, leading to an inflated billing. This results in your contractor getting significantly lower pay than market standards. Moreover, when you work with companies similar to Adecco, you will find it difficult to know how much they are paying the contractor. Similarly, the contractor will remain unaware of your budget for taking their services. This lack of transparency will likely create higher chances of turnover at your company. This is a major reason why many companies look for Adecco’s alternatives.
Global Squirrels solves these challenges with its staffing platform. To hire local/global talent, you will only need to pay the flat fee and the payroll cost. Because of our platform’s flat fee pricing model, we eliminate excessive markups charged by companies like Adecco. Hiring overseas through our platform becomes more cost-effective, allowing companies to save up to 80%. The best part is pricing transparency, which ensures both you and your employees have clarity on the bill rate and pay. You can view the pay expectations of the contractor and the monthly hiring cost, including our flat fee, along with resume, cover letter, etc. To get started, you can sign up for free and post your resource requirement. In two to five business days, our platform will share curated profiles of top talent for interviewing and hiring, notified via email.
