Required – Managers to do more for less

Despite the fact that companies are planning to expand and need to bring in new skills, they are still well aware that costs need to be controlled. We are frequently facing the problem of clients not willing or able to pay the necessary salary to attract the right quality individuals.
As a head-hunter Paul Harper always says that the market rate will determine what needs to be paid. There are currently two market rates:

• Salary for existing employees.
  
• Salary for new employees.
