Permanent hires, contract staffing, and flexible monthly recruitment support.
Fractional Services Built for Real-World Hiring
Need help hiring, but can’t justify a headhunting fee or a full-time recruiter?
We get it. That’s exactly why we built Nectera Agents.
Whether you’re hiring one role or several, our Recruiter Agents give you expert support on a flexible monthly plan, no commissions, no long-term contracts, and no overhead costs. Just smart, senior-level hiring help you can pause anytime.
What Does Hiring a Fractional Recruiter Mean?
It means having a recruiter on your team, without the salary overhead costs or full time commitment.
You’re not outsourcing to a stranger or committing to a full-time employee. You’re activating a Nectera Agent: someone who works with you, inside your systems, acting like an in-house team member… without the full-time cost.
From sorting resumes and screening candidates to managing the full hiring process, we handle the heavy lifting, while you stay in control of the pipeline and pace.
Sound Familiar?
-You’re doing the hiring yourself… and it’s eating up your time
-You’re growing fast but don’t have the budget for a full-time recruiter
-You’ve worked with headhunters, and the price just doesn’t work for you now.
If that’s you, a Nectera Agent is the flexible fix you’ve been looking for.
Why Companies Love It:
✔️ Hire one or many roles, for the same flat monthly rate
✔️ Pause or scale anytime, no awkward exits
✔️ Stay in control, we integrate into your tools, not the other way around
✔️ Senior-level support, minus the high fees.
