Recruitment agencies

What is the difference between an ATS and a recruitment CRM?

An applicant tracking system (ATS) moves candidates through the stages of one job. A recruitment CRM keeps the relationship with candidates across many jobs. In Naseej Consulting both live on the same candidate record: pipeline stage, application history, skills and recruiter notes, plus reusable bench pools of consented professionals.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. The free plan needs no card and does not expire. It includes one company administrator, one active requisition, applications and basic candidate management. It has no AI credits; paid Core plans add requisitions, seats and a monthly AI credit allowance.

How does a staffing agency get the Agency Workspace?

Agencies apply through the Naseej Consulting Agency Portal. The team reviews each application, may ask for documents, and then the agency signs its agency agreement. Approved agencies receive matched employer requisitions and can submit candidates, track placements, timesheets and invoices, and manage bench pools.

Does the AI decide which candidates are submitted or hired?

No. AI parses resumes, ranks professionals and explains each match. A recruiter or the employer makes every submission, interview and hiring decision.

Saudi end-of-service awards

How much gratuity after 2 years in Saudi Arabia?

Two years of service earns 2 × 0.5 = one month's last wage as the full award. If you resign at exactly 2 years, you receive one third of it. If the employer ends the contract, you receive all of it.

How can I calculate my end of service?

Enter your start date, end date, last monthly wage and the reason you are leaving above. The tool applies the rates and resignation shares shown on this page.

What is the formula to calculate ESB?

Full award = (0.5 × wage × years, up to 5) + (1 × wage × years beyond 5). On resignation, multiply by 0, ⅓, ⅔ or 1 depending on length of service.

How do I calculate my full and final settlement?

The end-of-service award is one part of it. A final settlement usually also includes unpaid salary and any unused annual leave owed to you. Check your contract and the official HRSD services for your case.

US employee cost

How do I calculate the cost of an employee?

Add the salary, employer payroll taxes (Social Security, Medicare, FUTA and state unemployment), benefits, PTO and overhead. A quick estimate is salary × 1.25–1.4. The calculator gives you the exact figure.

How much does a $15-an-hour employee cost?

At 2,080 hours, $15 an hour is $31,200 in wages. Required employer taxes add about $2,387 for Social Security and Medicare, plus unemployment taxes. With no benefits, that's roughly $16.20–$16.50 an hour. Benefits push it higher. Use the calculator for your state.

Is it cheaper to hire a contractor?

Contractors carry no employer payroll taxes or benefits, but usually charge more per hour. Misclassifying an employee as a contractor creates tax and legal risk. Classification depends on the working relationship, not the label; see the IRS and Department of Labor guidance.

How much does an employee cost in the UK?

Up to £10,500 a year off your employer NI bill, if you're eligible.
