Transparent, Usage-Based Pricing.
Turn recruiting on when you need it, off when you don’t. Only pay for the hours you need.
Job boards bury you in unqualified resumes. Staffing agencies bury you in fees. TRS gives you expert recruiting by the hour, with guaranteed estimates and no finder’s fees.
How our pricing works.
We bill by the hour for the recruiting work required to fill your role. The number of hours depends on the complexity of the position, seniority level, and the talent market.
You control the pace and scope. We cap the hours upfront and guarantee not to exceed your estimate, so there are no surprise invoices — ever.
You Pay For
- The hours your recruiter works
- Sourcing, outreach & screening
- Interview coordination & scheduling
You Don’t Pay For
- Finder’s fees
- Retainers or upfront deposits
- Minimums or long-term contracts
