6. Financial Conditions
6.1 For the Company
The financial terms of registration on the Website, the posting of Job Offers by the Company and the collection of profiles of recommended Candidates are indicated in the "pricing" tab on the Hunteed Website. The applicable rate is the one in force at the time of the job offer. For ‘temporary’ jobs, the pricing conditions are detailed in the pricing tab on the platform.
The Company may choose to publish a Job Offer for free and only pay the Fee linked to the actual recruitment of candidates in accordance with the financial conditions indicated when the Job Offer is published and as defined below.
The Company may choose to take out a Subscription for a PRO account, and select the plan it wishes to use. The different Subscription plans are detailed on the "Pricing" page of the Site. To subscribe to a Subscription plan, the Company must contact the Hunteed team to establish a contract that the Company must sign. Any signature of the Subscription contract constitutes a definitive subscription on the terms agreed between Hunteed and the Company. The Subscription contract is concluded on the date of acceptance of the contract and will be effective according to the terms of the contract. At the end of the initial period as set out in the contract, the Subscription will be renewed tacitly, unless terminated by the Company or the Business by post or email to facturation@hunteed.com with a notice period of 1 month.
Regardless of the Subscription plan chosen, when the Company posts a Job Offer, the value of the Reward is automatically calculated by the platform on the basis of several criteria for recruitment on fixed-term and permanent contracts: average of the gross annual salary range indicated, duration of the replacement guarantee period chosen by the Company, function of the position to be filled, country in which the position is located. Based on these criteria, the percentage displayed is applied to the average of the annual salary range, and the amount obtained is rounded down or up to the nearest hundred, in order to determine the amount of the lump sum to be paid by the Company in the event of successful recruitment. For temporary hires, a multiplying factor depending on the geographical location is applied to the average gross annual or daily salary for the position to be filled, in order to determine the amount of the monthly lump sum to be paid by the Company in the event of successful recruitment of the temporary employee. The amount of the monthly Fee indicated when the temporary assignment is published is shown for information only, as it will vary depending on the actual number of days worked by the employee recruited on temporary assignment, and declared by the Company each month.
The Fee is payable on the date on which the Company and the Candidate mutually agree to enter into a fixed-term or open-ended Employment Contract, regardless of what happens to the Candidate within the Company. The Company then undertakes to inform the Company of the success of the assignment by any means at its disposal, and in particular on the Site, using the dashboard and the Candidate File by clicking on the RECRUIT THIS CANDIDATE button and indicating the date on which the Candidate will take up the position.
The Company will then issue an invoice to the Company for the total amount of the Reward as provided for when the Job Offer was published on the Site, plus VAT, payable on receipt. Nevertheless, if it turns out that the remuneration agreed between the Company and the Candidate recruited is more than 10% higher than the high range of the remuneration indicated on the Job Offer published, or more than 10% lower than the low range of the remuneration indicated on the Job Offer published, the Company reserves the right to adjust the Fee invoiced to the client according to the actual remuneration of the candidate recruited and, at the same time, the Fee due to the consultant. It is understood that the Company undertakes to provide the Company with a copy of the promise to hire or the signed employment contract, on first request.
In the case of the recruitment of a temporary employee, the fees due are payable at the end of each month worked by the temporary employee. Each month, the Company or the partner appointed by the Company to pay the salary of the employee recruited will issue an invoice to the Company for the total amount of the fees as forecast at the time the Job Offer was published and adjusted according to the employee's actual salary and related benefits, as well as the number of days actually worked and declared by the Company. The invoice is payable on receipt.
In the event of late payment and payment of sums due by the Client beyond the deadline set above, and after the payment date shown on the invoice sent to the Client, a penalty at the legal rate in force per month of delay will be automatically applicable, without any formality or prior notice and will result in the immediate payment of all sums due to Hunteed by the Client, without prejudice to any other action that Hunteed may be entitled to take against the Client in this respect. In addition, the Client shall be liable ipso jure to pay a minimum flat-rate compensation for recovery costs, in addition to late payment penalties, set at CHF 100, without prejudice to Hunteed's right to claim reimbursement of additional costs where the costs actually incurred exceed the amount of this flat-rate compensation, upon justification.
If the Company recruits or collaborates with a Candidate within twelve (12) months of the date of presentation to the Company on the platform, the Fee will be due in full to Hunteed.
If a consultant submits an application to the Company and the Company was already aware of this application through another means, the Company must inform the consultant within a maximum of 5 days and must provide proof if necessary or requested. The Reward will be due even if the Candidate was a previous contact of the Company who had applied to a Job Offer other than the one for which the Candidate was finally recruited.
In the event that a Candidate is recruited by the Company and that Candidate leaves the Company during the Guarantee Period, the Company undertakes to repost the initial Job Offer on the Site in order to launch a new recruitment. If a new Candidate is recruited, the Company will not have to pay a new Fee. The Company may only implement the Replacement Guarantee on condition that the Company has paid the invoice due to the Company.
It is understood that the Candidate Replacement Guarantee may only be applied once per recruitment, and for a maximum period of 12 months from the date on which the initial Job Offer is reposted on the Site. If, at the end of the 12 months, no new candidate has been recruited, the replacement guarantee is no longer applicable, and the Company cannot accept any liability towards the Company in the event that none of the new candidates presented are recruited during this second search.
- The Company undertakes to provide Hunteed electronically with the statement of days worked within the first 3 days following the end of the month concerned.
- The Company may interrupt temporary work assignments, subject to compliance with the employee's notice period, and in accordance with the conditions set out in the temporary employee's contract.
- If the Company decides to recruit an employee on a temporary contract within a period of 6 months following the start of the temporary assignment, the Company undertakes to pay a recruitment fee of 16% of the gross annual salary of the position to be filled.

The Consultant undertakes to recommend only Candidates whose profile and skills correspond to the Job Offer published by the Companies. The Consultant undertakes to present only qualified Candidates with whom it has conducted a prior physical or videoconference interview and from whom it has received their express agreement to apply. A single telephone interview cannot be considered as a sufficient means of recommendation.

All applications sent to the platform for a given assignment must be checked for the required skills of the applicant (language level, professional experience, validated diplomas, etc.).
The Consultant shall be entitled to invoice his assignment at the end of the candidate's guarantee period.

In the case of the recruitment of a temporary worker, the Consultant Fee is readjusted each month according to the number of days actually worked and declared by the Company.
