Permanent recruitment agency for Indian enterprises

Permanent recruitment for roles that anchor your operation — supervisors, engineers, plant managers, QA leads and functional heads. Mapped, screened and closed against a defined brief, with a replacement guarantee from date of joining.

The real problem

Why this usually goes wrong

Most permanent mandates fail on brief, not on sourcing. A vague job description produces forty irrelevant CVs and a three-month vacancy. We spend the first meeting narrowing the brief until it's closable.

FAQ

Questions buyers actually ask

What is your replacement guarantee?

A standard replacement window applies from date of joining for permanent placements, at no fresh sourcing fee. The exact window is stated in the mandate letter.

How do you charge for permanent recruitment?

A percentage of annual CTC, invoiced on joining — not on offer release. Retained search for leadership roles is structured differently.

How long does a mid-management role take to close?

Typically 4–6 weeks from a signed brief to accepted offer, plus the candidate's notice period.

Do you handle offer-drop-out risk?

Yes. We stay in contact through the notice period. Counter-offer drop-out is the single largest failure point in Indian permanent hiring and it needs active management, not hope.
