Rent a Recruiter

An elastic alternative to full-time employment and agencies

Rent a Recruiter (RaR) is the answer to the need for rapid scaling of the HR team without permanent commitments. Building an internal recruitment function can be time-consuming, and the classic agency collaboration model does not always meet the need for full integration with the client's team. RaR combines the advantages of both solutions, providing greater flexibility, direct collaboration, and a quick start.

In this model, an Antal expert joins your team for a specified period – on-site or remotely. They work on your terms, report directly to you, but utilize Antal's know-how, tools, and candidate database. You pay only for the actual support time, avoiding costs of vacations, sick leaves, or employee benefits. This is the ideal solution for sudden recruitment spikes or replacements.

When does the RaR model work best?

• You need immediate support in the HR department (e.g., sudden departure, vacation)• You are handling a seasonal recruitment peak or a new project• You do not want to increase permanent employment (headcount) in the HR structures• You care about full control over the process and direct contact with the recruiter• You want to transfer Antal's knowledge and tools to your team

Frequently Asked Questions about Rent a Recruiter

The cost of the Rent a Recruiter service depends on the duration of the project, the number of processes being conducted, and the seniority of the recruitment specialist. Unlike classic recruitment outsourcing based on a commission for each recruitment, the 'hourly recruiter' or 'contract recruiter' model allows for precise budget planning and distribution over time. You pay for actual recruitment support – access to a recruitment consultant, their time, and tools – instead of for individual position closures.
