What a recruitment agency in Doha usually costs, and what we do instead
Agencies in Doha follow the same model as agencies everywhere: a percentage of salary on placement. Scowter is a recruiting agency run by AI agents and human recruiters at one flat fee, so the price is known before the search starts.
| Typical Doha agency | Scowter | |
|---|---|---|
| Fee | 15 to 25 percent of first-year salary, more for executive search | One flat fee per role, agreed before we start |
| When you pay | On placement, sometimes a retainer up front | Flat monthly fee while the role is open, no retainer |
| Who does the work | One recruiter working several clients | AI agents search daily, a human recruiter interviews and verifies |
| Where candidates come from | Job ads and the recruiter's own contacts | Our own talent pool first, then 150+ job boards |
| What you receive | CVs to screen yourself | A ready-to-hire shortlist with interview notes, salary and start date |
| After the shortlist | You chase scheduling | We handle scheduling, follow-ups and offer coordination |
