Recruiter fee calculator
See what a contingency recruiter costs before you agree to the percentage.
Most recruiter fee calculators are just salary × percentage. This one shows that math next to SuperHired's $9,500 flat fee, so you can compare the actual hiring cost before you sign anything.
Inputs
Choose the salary and contingency fee.
Comparison
What the fee looks like side by side.
At a $150,000 salary and 25% contingency fee, you would pay $28,000 more than SuperHired's flat-fee model.
What this calculator does not show
The real cost is not only the fee. It is also what you keep when the search is over.
A percentage-based recruiter usually gets paid for placement. SuperHired is built around discovery quality and documented reasoning. You keep the Job Map, Work Driver logic, salary benchmark, and decision trail even if the role changes or the first search does not end in a hire.
That is why the useful question is not only “what percentage do recruiters charge?” It is “what do we get for the fee, and what survives after the search?”
