Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions.

Do you place temp or contract staff?
No. Creativ Recruits places permanent candidates only. We do not offer TES, temp, payroll or any short-term staffing services. All placements are permanent hires.
What is your replacement guarantee?
We provide a 90-day replacement guarantee on all permanent placements. Days 1–30: free replacement at no additional cost. Days 31–60: replacement at 50% of the original fee. Days 61–90: replacement at 75% of the original fee. The guarantee does not apply to retrenchment, redundancy or significant changes to the original job description. All guarantees are forfeited if invoice remains unpaid beyond 30 days.
When are invoices due?
Invoices are issued on the candidate's start date and are strictly payable within 30 days. Payments exceeding 30 days incur interest at 2% per month. Late payment results in the immediate forfeiture of the placement guarantee.
What areas do you recruit for?
We recruit across South Africa with a primary focus on Cape Town and the Western Cape BPO sector. We also source candidates for UK and international campaigns run from South African contact centres.
How does candidate ownership work?
Any candidate introduced by Creativ Recruits remains under our representation for 12 months from the date of introduction. Should you hire a candidate we introduced — directly or indirectly — within this period without our involvement, the full placement fee plus a 5% penalty becomes immediately payable.
How is POPIA compliance managed?
Creativ Recruits is registered with the Information Regulator of South Africa (Info Officer Ref: 2025-013986). All candidate and client data is handled in compliance with POPIA. International data transfers to our processors (Google, HubSpot, Notion) are covered by Standard Contractual Clauses and Data Processing Agreements. Our full policies are available at www.creativrecruits.co.za/policies.
