Start with
the right questions.
- What is your technical recruiting specialization?
- How do you source and manage candidate relationships?
- What support do you need to operate independently?
- What kind of practice do you want to build?
Discuss the details that matter.
Where do roles and clients come from?
NOVAEM describes a client network as part of its offering. Discuss role access, whether you can bring existing clients, and each party’s sourcing responsibilities during your introduction.
Who owns client and candidate relationships?
The current site emphasizes independent practice. Confirm specific ownership, confidentiality, and post-engagement provisions in the agreement.
When is the recruiter share paid?
Confirm the trigger for payment, timing after client collection, and how any replacement or refund provisions affect a placement.
Is there a fee to join?
NOVAEM’s current website states there are no fees to join. Review all operating terms during the introductory conversation.
