-
Workstream is a fraction of the cost of traditional recruiting methods. Instead of paying agency fees of 20–30% per hire or expensive and rigid Retained or RPO practices, Workstream provides a dedicated, continuous recruiting partnership for a predictable monthly cost with no restrictions. On average, clients fill 8 roles per year through a single Workstream, driving their cost-per-hire far below industry averages and often to less than one-third the cost of hiring an experienced in-house recruiter.

Unlike agencies that have a more transactional approach by charging a fee per hire, Workstream operates on a predictable, fixed monthly cost. The more you hire, the greater the value because your Workstream delivers continuous recruiting momentum and scales with your business needs instead of restarting from scratch with every role.
