How our retingency approach addresses recruitment challenges:
Upfront Costs
Expanding in Germany often requires a specialist recruiter, but traditional retained models ask for upfront costs before results. With our Retingency service, you get all the benefits of a retained search (dedicated account manager, headhunting, strategy) but only pay when we deliver a successful placement.
No financial risk. No compromise on quality.
Lack of Candidate Insights
When hiring in a new country like Germany, guessing isn’t an option. That’s why we include behavioural assessments in our process at no extra cost. It gives you deeper insight into how a candidate thinks and works, helping you avoid costly mis-hires and make better decisions, backed by data, not just CVs.
Continuity
Many contingency recruiters focus on volume, not value, especially across borders. We take a different approach. With Retingency, you get a dedicated account manager and a team who have a deep understanding of your industry and goals. We’ll align closely with your needs and deliver culturally and commercially suitable candidates across Germany.
