Same here, this is a great idea. An ideal setup, would be an agent, that could find me 15-20 hours/wk consistently, at my current rate (125$/hr), so that I can split time between the company, and the contract. I'd give away 25$/hr of that hourly.

Nice. This is really interesting. I was thinking we could somewhat automate the agent process but perhaps we allow recruiters to sign up and represent you for a revenue share. Interesting.

I don't want a recruiter. I want an agent. Those might seem like they overlap, but there's enough differences that you have to watch it. Recruiters have to work in volume. Agents (at least MY agent would )work off quality. Think jerry maguire for geeks instead of athletes. And they absolutely cannot take money from the employer when I take a contract. I'd fire a hypothetical agent in a heartbeat if I ever found out about that.

I think it really only works with hourly. Salaried positions are how we ended up with recruiter dynamics in the first place.

Thanks. Yeah, I totally get it. Makes sense all the way.

What is your hourly rate, and what qualifies you for such a high rate? I'm asking honestly, as a person who's actually interested in being an agent. Basically, help me help you.

Cool. So you'd be interested in being an agent. Can you expand on your ideal user experience?
