Hello, everyone, this is Leo Steavart, HR Generalist from a startup company in Hyderabad. I am facing a few challenges in the recruitment process for closing the following positions:
1. Senior Director of Marketing
2. Senior Team Leaders
3. Senior Marketing Heads
4. Senior President
5. Senior Vice President
Challenges in Recruitment
The main challenge in this recruitment is that I need to recruit them through social media. I also require the above-mentioned candidates to work on a commission-based structure. There is no fixed salary, no PF, no ESI, no HRA, and no special allowances, only commission-based pay for the above-mentioned positions. This is a requirement in Hyderabad for a Real Estate company.
Kindly suggest some ways to help me close these positions or any other suggestions.

If you need people with good caliber, a driving attitude, etc., you should offer good salaries, incentives, and perquisites. Job security is another important point. If you only offer commission, you can manage the show by seeking the help of some agents, not by employing professionally qualified and experienced individuals. Therefore, change it to fixed remuneration or make it at least 60% fixed and 40% variable. Only then can you attract good candidates.

Hey Leo, I completely understand your issue; it's difficult to recruit marketing professionals. The best part is you have the option to hire on a commission basis.
Try using Telegram communities, LinkedIn groups, or social media; consistent efforts may result in the best outcome. For me, Telegram worked better.
Thanks,

I seriously doubt that the kind of people you are looking for (obviously senior and with experience) will bother to respond to you, especially when you are offering only commission and no salary. If they wanted to work on pure commission in real estate, they would be brokers and not bother to work with a company, follow its rules, or be dependent on the efficiency or business model of someone else.

Hi Leo, it appears you are looking at some sort of gig workers. Many seniors have given their suggestions that are most suited to your requirements. I also wish to suggest a package that includes a combination of fixed remuneration plus commission or incentives commensurate with their achievements against set goals/targets. This is a workable option instead of only a commission basis. This approach will not only empower the team but also make them commit to the tasks and work according to the time and targets. Otherwise, relying solely on commission may lead them to indulge in doing things for others on the side, which could jeopardize the very purpose of planned recruitments and be detrimental to your business interests.
