Candidate Submittal is an alternative recruitment process offered by companies whereby the candidate submittal agency provides 'coaching' for the job seeker with respect to his/her job application. With candidate submittal, the job seeker usually sources their own prospective job opportunity ( e.g. on Job Boards, Company Websites, Newspapers etc... ). The job seeker then applies for the job through the candidate submittal agency, which is usually run by ex-recruitment professionals or other industry veterans.
The candidate submittal service will often vett, edit or enhance the job seekers application before passing it on to the employer. The service will then act on behalf of the job seeker in the negotiations and would also may help prepare the job seeker for an interview process or other pre-interview engagement. They would also provide any relevant feedback to the job seeker with regards to his/her application.
Once the job seeker is accepted by the employer, the candidate submittal agency then may then refund a portion of the sign-on fee back to the job seeker . Usually in recognition of the fact that the candidate has completed some of the recruitment process themselves by sourcing their own jobs.
