HiredFirst | Commission-Only | 80% Total Payout | Remote
HiredFirst specializes in healthcare staffing - travel, local contract, and permanent direct-hire — but our network of recruiters allows us to place across a variety of industries. We move fast, we operate lean, and we believe in rewarding the people who bring in the business at a level most agencies won't. Our mission is built on Honesty, Integrity, and Transparency (H.I.T.).
We're looking for an experienced healthcare or general staffing recruiter to join HiredFirst as either:
A 360 Recruiter — someone who can work the full desk: bring your own client contracts (existing or newly developed), source candidates, negotiate offers, and close permanent placements start to finish, or
A 180 Account Manager — someone who already has an existing book of clients with open permanent roles. You bring the client contracts and requisitions; HiredFirst's existing recruiter network sources and delivers the candidates. You manage the account relationship and collect a 40% payout on every permanent placement closed.
Both roles require you to bring your own client contracts — either relationships you already have in place or new clients you develop and sign. This is not a role where clients are handed to you; your book of business is the foundation of what you'll earn from.
This is a commission-only role. There is no cap on what you can earn, and there is no ceiling on how fast you can earn it.
Joining HiredFirst is the closest you'll get to launching your own recruiting firm — without taking on the risk, overhead, or startup costs of actually doing it. You bring the clients and the hustle; we bring the infrastructure: systems, back-office support, and a foundation built by seasoned recruiters with a proven track record of closing deals in healthcare staffing. You get the autonomy and upside of running your own book of business, backed by a platform that's already been built and tested.
Most agencies pay recruiters 20–40% of the placement fee. At HiredFirst:
360 Recruiters keep 80% of every placement fee they close, start to finish.
180 Account Managers keep 40% on every permanent placement closed through their client relationships, with HiredFirst's recruiter network handling candidate sourcing and delivery.
That means the vast majority of every deal goes directly into your pocket — not absorbed by layers of overhead. We built this structure because we believe the people generating revenue should be the ones capturing it.
Real example: A recruiter who joined HiredFirst worked a full 360 desk — brought the client, sourced the candidate, negotiated the offer, and closed the deal herself. Her very first permanent placement generated a fee large enough that, at our 80% payout, she personally earned $26,000 from that single placement.
That's the model. One good deal, worked the right way, can change your month — or your year.
If working as a 360 Recruiter:
Bring and develop your own client contracts — existing relationships or new business you sign
Source and screen qualified candidates for permanent, direct-hire roles — primarily in healthcare, with flexibility to work roles in other industries
Manage the full placement cycle — intake, submission, interview coordination, offer negotiation, and close
Use HiredFirst's systems and automation tools to move quickly and efficiently
If working as a 180 Account Manager:
Bring your existing client contracts and open permanent requisitions
Leverage HiredFirst's existing recruiter network to source and deliver candidates against those roles
Manage the client-facing side of the placement — relationship, communication, and expectations
Negotiate and close offers on submitted candidates
Prior experience in healthcare staffing or general permanent placement recruiting (other industries welcome)
A track record of closing direct-hire / permanent placements (360 experience) or an active book of clients with permanent openings (180 experience)
Strong negotiation and relationship-building skills
Self-starter mentality — this is a commission-only role, so you're in control of your own pipeline and your own income
Comfortable working independently and moving quickly in a fast-paced, VMS/MSP-influenced staffing environment
Honest, transparent, and mission-driven approach to the work
100% commission-based
80% payout for 360 Recruiters on all closed permanent placement fees
40% payout for 180 Account Managers on all closed permanent placement fees
No cap on earnings
Fast-moving deals mean fast-moving paychecks — there is no ceiling on how quickly a strong recruiter can close and get paid
Disclaimer: The 80% payout rate for 360 Recruiters applies to U.S.-based recruiters only. Recruiters based overseas are offered 50% of the standard payout rate.
