2. DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES
2.1 Platform Overview.
The Platform is a digital marketplace connecting Recruiters and Clients (Employers). Recruiters register on the Platform by submitting their credentials and resumes through our online forms. They are then subject to a rigorous qualification process—including comprehensive assessments and, where necessary, background verifications—before being listed on the Platform. Clients register on the Platform to browse and select Recruiters based on their specific needs. Direct communication between Clients and Recruiters is strictly prohibited. Once a client selects a recruiter, an alert is generated and our team steps in to facilitate the hiring process on an hourly, daily, monthly, or as-required basis. Engagement of the service may vary in length (hourly, daily, monthly, yearly, or lifetime) and will be managed according to the client’s requirements and the agreed contractual terms. Pricing models and terms will be determined on a case-by-case basis within each individual contract.
