We want to make sure all of our placements are set up to have the greatest potential for success. This is why we offer a free five-day working trial period for all long-term placements before our final placement fee is due. This helps both our clients and candidates know if it’s a good long-term fit as this is a crucial part of any hire. Although five days is not even long enough to get trained for some positions, it still allows the candidate to get a real sense of the job duties, work environment and the principal’s expectations. During the working trial period our client’s and their staff are able to see how our candidate adapts to a new environment, if they’re able to keep up, how well they multitask, their flexibility, if they’re a team player and of course if they have a positive attitude and personality. The first week is always the hardest so it’s a great indicator of how well they’ll do long-term.

After the five-day trial period our client has the option to make an offer to the candidate or start a new trial period with another candidate. We offer our clients help with negotiating a fair and competitive salary based on the position and the candidate’s experience as well as other factors. During the negotiation we provide the hiring contracts and walk our clients through the entire process. Our clients are free to use their own agreements in addition to the ones we provide and we’re involved and help as much or little as our client’s desire.

Once hire has been made and the agreements have been signed and dated by both parties, the agency’s final placement fee is due. As stated in our Placement Fees and under our Terms and Conditions, the final placement fee is based on the domestic employee’s expected annual gross salary hiring package. The hiring package may or may not include housing, health insurance and other benefits. After a placement, we offer our clients a free replacement guarantee within the first 60-days of hire if they aren’t satisfied with their employee.

In life, sometimes there are unforeseen situations, family emergencies or circumstances out of our control. This is why we offer this insurance as it guarantees our client’s the peace of mind knowing that they will endure a financial loss or be be stuck with someone they are not completely satisfied with. After the free replacement period we offer a 50% discount for the replacement of a new employee for up to 6 months following the original start date. Between 6 months and the end of the year, if another replacement is needed, we offer a 25% discount of the original placement fee. It’s incredibly rare for us to have to do a replacement. However, if a replacement is necessary, we will work with the client closely to determine if we’re able to replace the candidate at no additional cost or at a discount (listed above) if it’s after the 60-day period.

Deb’s Domestic Agency will never share any private information about our clients or our applicants to anyone outside the agency. Only pre-screened candidates who our clients have already chosen to interview will be provided with the details of the job position. Even our client’s basic information will not be shared with qualified candidates without our client’s permission and we do not refer any candidates we have not personally interviewed and vetted. The same level of privacy and protection is applied to our applicants. We only provide our candidate’s full portfolio; copies of identification and full background report after they have accepted a job offer and our client has paid the agency’s final placement fee in full. We follow a strict protocol and are accountable to our professional associations in how we conduct our business and protect the privacy of our clients and applicants.
