    How to get recruiters or employers to use your job portal

    This is the thing, you need to do something that someone else isn't or if they are, then do it better. There's a lot of free job boards out there, you will need to spend loads of money advertising and marketing it, including SEO. Without this, it won't go very far.

    Recruitment Agency Question

    You were aware of the agency terms before interviewing the candidate, so you should do the right thing and pay for the services received. You wouldn't have to pay the fee on day 1, just within the agreed payment terms. The terms are likely to have a clause that states the acceptance of an...

    Totaljobs tricked me into agreeing to contract

    As others have said, I don't think they "tricked" you if you clicked "confirm order". It is also likely that you would have received an email shortly after confirming your order, so you could have disputed it then if you felt the need to.

    Engineering Recruitment Business - Info Needed

    I agree with Scott, it's not something you can do as a side project. Some see recruitment as a good money earner but it's a complicated industry and if you don't know what you are doing then it can backfire on you. Find an established agency and agree a referral scheme as suggested, that way...

    Agency worker not paid, misleading contract

    Hi, Report the agency and this matter to ACAS, as long as your friend has a signed timesheet, then he can prove the hours worked. Worth also reporting the matter to the REC (Recruitment Employment Confederation).

    Agency Deducting Money - No Explanation, Avoiding Calls

    First of all, you need to have a copy of the invoice, if they are making deductions for this then you need to be aware of the correct amount. Secondly, I would consider reporting the agency for their conduct, you could write a letter of complaint to the Manager/Director initially but also...

    Temporary Staff - Who pays the TAX/NI

    I would recommend using a payroll provider, it's a lot easy to manage and they will handle the PAYE for you.
