Splitting AdvantagesSplitting fees in the recruiting business offers many advantages that lead to
efficient client service and increased financial stability for members.
Expanded reach and industry specializationSplit-fee placements give members access to hundreds of recruiters with expertise in diverse geographic and industry segments.
Stabilize revenue fluctuationsSplit-fee placements can generate incremental business that levels out seasonal or cyclical revenue fluctuations.
Manage more projectsMore completed projects result in more satisfied clients and increased profitability.
Minimize recruiter turnoverLow-production months for recruiters in commission-type compensation arrangements can lead to unnecessary turnover. Split-fee placements leading to incremental business minimize low production.

Testimonials
“Before joining NPAworldwide, we were seen as a small, local recruiting firm located outside of a major city. However, once we joined, we were able to leverage our membership and serve clients outside of our local area – including regional, national and international. Now, we have clients who just “know” we can recruit for them, regardless of location. Talk about “found money” and outstanding ROI!! I highly recommend membership in NPAworldwide.”

“The NPAworldwide Network provides me with the support and tools needed to improve my efficiency and effectiveness. Thanks to the help of affiliates I have been able to present better candidates, and these candidates have resulted in additional placement revenue for my business. The process of working with affiliates can be so much fun that I find myself working overtime to make a split placement!”
