Why Companies Choose CDM

9% Fees - Half the Industry Standard

We leverage AI to streamline candidate sourcing and back-end processes without losing the human touch. We pass this "AI Dividend" directly to you with recruitment fees of 9% instead of the typical 18%.

Pay as You Earn

Recruiters typically invoice 7 days after acceptance - well before you see economic benefit. Our standard offer is payment in 60 days. Choose to pay earlier for a discount.

Evidence-Based Hiring

Structured evaluation, behavioural interviewing, reference checking, and an optional Hiring Risk Assessment. We make recommendations based on evidence, not gut feel or rehearsable self-marketing skills.

Large In-House Database

We do not just rely on applicants from SEEK. We have a large, curated database of candidates we promote your role to directly - giving you access to talent your competitors never see.

AI-Powered Hidden Talent Market

We use agentic AI to conduct proactive outbound outreach on every single role - finding quality candidates who are not actively searching or applying for jobs on major platforms.

3-Month Replacement Guarantee

If it is not working out for any reason, we will replace them for free within 3 months. No questions, no fuss.

Our Hiring Assurance Process

Our objective is to assess capability, motivation, behavioural suitability and evidence of future success. Where appropriate, clients may also elect to include an independent behavioural assessment to further reduce hiring risk before making an offer.

Optional Hiring Risk Assessment

For clients hiring into critical or leadership roles, we offer an independent behavioural assessment that provides additional evidence before an offer is made. It evaluates performance suitability, integrity indicators, learning agility, decision quality, and turnover risk.

Assessment fees are paid upfront and separate from the recruitment fee. Fees will be advised after consultation but are typically in the range of a few hundred dollars per shortlisted candidate.
