rekrutteringsbyråer

Rekrutteringsbyråer are firms that connect employers with job seekers, providing recruitment services for permanent roles, temporary staffing, or contract assignments. They may operate across multiple industries or specialize in a particular sector, and some focus on executive search while others target general or mid-level positions.

Core services include developing job descriptions, sourcing candidates, screening and interviewing, coordinating assessments, conducting reference checks, negotiating offers, and supporting onboarding. Many agencies also provide payroll services for temporary staff and deliver market insights such as salary benchmarks and labor-market trends.

Business models vary. Contingency recruitment charges a fee only when a candidate is hired. Retained or executive-search engagements involve an upfront fee and a more intensive search process. Temporary-staff providers typically bill a markup on the worker’s wages and may assume payroll and HR administration. Some agencies offer recruitment process outsourcing as a broader service.

Regulation and ethics: agencies operate under labor and anti-discrimination laws, and must comply with data protection rules, including privacy for candidate data. Their effectiveness relies on industry knowledge, screening methods, networks, and cultural fit. The market includes large multinational firms, independent specialists, and digital platforms that complement traditional recruitment services.
