Terms for hiring companies
How hiring through RemoteReady BW works: what's free, what a placement costs, and what each side commits to.
1. What we do
We prepare Botswana tech graduates, personally screen them, and introduce them to companies hiring remotely. Every candidate who applies to your listing has been vetted by us: we review their CV and watch a recorded technical video, with a live one-to-one screening call where appropriate.
2. Posting a job: free
Listing a role costs nothing. We review each listing before it goes public.
3. Placement fees: 50% off your first placement
Your first successful hire through RemoteReady BW is charged at half the fee described in clause 6, whenever it closes. This applies once, to your first placement, not to a time window. Most placements take longer than a month to complete, so a fixed early window rarely ends up covering anyone in practice.
4. When a placement fee applies
A fee is due when you hire someone we introduced you to. “Introduced” means the candidate applied to your listing, or you requested their contact details or CV, or contacted them through RemoteReady BW.
5. The introduction window: 6 months
Any candidate we introduce is covered for six months from the date of introduction, regardless of where the conversation continues. If you hire them within that window (for the advertised role or any other), the fee applies.
6. The fee
20% of the candidate's gross first-month salary, subject to a minimum of $1,000 USD where the role is paid in a foreign currency, or P2,500 where it is paid in Botswana Pula. Where salary is in a foreign currency, we convert at the Bank of Botswana mid-rate on the start date. Your first placement through us is charged at half this fee. See clause 3.
7. Telling us: within 7 days
You agree to notify us within seven days of making an offer to anyone we introduced, and to confirm their start date and gross monthly salary.
8. Invoicing
We invoice on the candidate's start date. Payment is due within 14 days.
9. If it doesn't work out: 30 days
If the candidate leaves or is let go within 30 days of starting, the fee is credited in full against your next placement through us. The credit is valid for 12 months.
10. What we don't do
We are not an employer of record. We don't handle contracts, payroll, tax, or work permits. The employment relationship is between you and the candidate.
11. Candidate privacy
You may see a candidate's public profile, their Vetted badge, and their recorded video. You will never see our private screening notes or their assessment scores. You agree not to share their video, CV, or contact details outside your own hiring team, and not to pass them to another company or recruiter.
Questions about any of this? Ask us before you register, and we'd rather answer now than argue later.
