How
the Fee Structure works at the FCP Talent
Registry
Thinking of accepting a
job through the FCP Talent Registry?
Here's what you should know:
The FCP Talent
Registry does NOT
invoice the employer - ever.
As an operator, you charge whatever rate you wish.
$50-$80/hour is fairly common for a professional operator
in Australia as is £250-£400 per day in London. This
depends largely on your experience and skill level. We
leave that up to you.
When you
have completed a job, be sure to CC the invoice that you
send to your employer to
copy@fcptalent.com
The Talent Registry will then invoice you (the operator)
10% of the gross value of the job. There are no
"deductions" its just a flat 10% of whatever is on the
total of your invoice including taxes or expenses. This is
part of the follow-up process of the Talent Registry
Service. You don't need to deal with it until after the job
is complete...when we'll get in touch with you.
For full-time work, or
work that continues with the same employer after the
initial job, the fees are capped at 4 weeks from the first
day of employment. This still applies if the job is a
different project but no fees are ever charged after the
first 4 weeks.
If you are Matched-up to a job but then it is cancelled or
delayed, often the client will want to work with you in the
future. In this case, the Match-up fee will apply from the
first day that you start working with the client who you
have been acquainted with through a Talent Registry
Match-up.
If the employer continues to work with you without going
through us, that's fine - you've established a new
professional relationship, which we encourage.
If the same employer that you have worked for comes to us
and we happen to match you up again, that is considered to
be a new job and the Fee Structure begins again.
We consider this to be a very fair deal - especially
compared to a traditional agency:
•We don't charge you unless you actually work a job.
•We only charge 10% - less than a standard agency fee.
•Agencies traditional charge a larger percentage, plus they
charge the candidate and
the
employer.
•We don't charge an ongoing percentage forever as an agency
would.
•You get to charge what you like. We don't negotiate your
rate up with the employer, then tell you it's far less and
call the difference 'profit' - a standard industry
practise.
IMPORTANT:
Fees are due within 28 days of the completion of
your job. Its a good idea to pay the Talent Registry fee
promptly - overdue fees will render
your Talent Registry profile dormant and you will receive
no further job offers after
that.
You should only accept job offers through the Talent
Registry if you think thats a fair deal. We do!
