Recruitment Agency Client Survey
Candidate quality, speed, and brief understanding – the hiring partner scorecard.
4 questions · 1 page · about 2 minutes to answer · fully editable after you start
Employers judge recruiters on a ruthless funnel: did the shortlist match the brief, how fast did credible candidates arrive, and did the hire survive probation. This client survey scores that funnel plus the relationship layer – honesty about market realities and communication through the search.
The placement-still-in-role question (send this at the 6-month mark) is the quality metric that separates partners from CV-forwarders, and the one worth publishing to prospects.
