Why We Offer a 1-Year Retention Guarantee—And Why That Should Matter to You

In an industry full of empty promises, fine print, and finger-pointing, we decided to do something radical: stand behind our work.

At MyPerfectHire.com, every placement comes with a 12-month retention guarantee. Not 30 days. Not 90. A full year. Because when we say we're here to help you make the right hire—not just any hire—we mean it.

The Problem with Most Recruiting Guarantees

Let's be honest: most recruiting firms either don't offer a guarantee or offer guarantees that are designed to expire right before things go wrong. It's no coincidence that 60 to 90 days is the industry standard—just long enough to clear the honeymoon period, but not long enough to truly know if someone is going to stick.

After that? You're on your own. And if the hire doesn't work out, you're back at square one, only this time with more urgency, less budget, and less trust in the recruiting process.

We think you deserve better.

What Our 1-Year Guarantee Really Means

Our guarantee isn't a marketing gimmick. It's a reflection of how we work.

When we commit to helping you find your perfect hire, we mean someone who performs, stays, and adds long-term value to your business. And if that doesn't happen? We'll replace them at no additional cost.

No hidden fees. No excuses. No passing the blame.

We're willing to offer this guarantee because our process is built to reduce the risk of a bad hire from the start. That includes:

• Deep discovery and intake to align on performance expectations, team dynamics, and company culture

• Targeting high-performing passive candidates who aren't actively job-hopping but will move for the right opportunity

• Custom outreach and messaging that attracts top-tier professionals aligned to your mission

• Meticulous vetting and calibration, with no shortcuts and no "maybe" candidates

• A true partnership mindset, not a one-off transaction

Why Retention Is the Metric That Actually Matters

Recruiters love to talk about "time to fill," but that's only part of the story. A fast hire who quits in six months costs you more than no hire at all.

Here's what poor retention really costs:

• Reposting and rehiring fees

• Lost productivity and momentum

• Team disruption and morale issues

• Training costs and onboarding time wasted

• Damaged internal credibility with leadership and stakeholders

According to the U.S. Department of Labor, the cost of a bad hire can be as high as 30% of that employee's first-year earnings. That's not a rounding error. That's a serious hit to your bottom line.

Retention Isn't Just a Guarantee—It's a Strategy

Our entire process is engineered to increase retention, not just speed. We don't believe in flooding your inbox with unqualified resumes. We don't recommend the first person who can fog a mirror. And we never pressure you to "just pick someone" so we can move on to the next role.

Instead, we dig in. We challenge assumptions. We ask uncomfortable questions. And we don't stop until we find the right person—not just a warm body.

That's why we're confident enough to offer a 1-year guarantee. Because we rarely need to use it.

Flat-Rate Pricing. One-Year Guarantee. Zero Bullsh*t.

You shouldn't have to pay twice when a hire doesn't stick. You shouldn't be stuck with a recruiter who disappears the minute the offer is signed. And you definitely shouldn't settle for the industry's bare-minimum standard.

With MyPerfectHire.com, you don't just get a recruiter. You get a partner who's in it for the long term—and willing to back that up in writing.

Let's make your next hire the one that actually lasts.
