Our guarantee
100% fee refund over 100 days. - We will always strive to introduce the most suitable candidates to you. However, should you appoint someone on a permanent basis who was introduced by Onyx and either they choose to leave within 100 days or you ask them to leave within 100 days, we will refund 100% of the fee you have paid to us.

Competency and Cultural Awareness
We match character to culture as well as identifying relevant technical skills. We cannot identify the best candidate for you if we do not understand your culture and the key competencies required for particular roles. Our service is most effective when both parties invest time at the start of the process to meet face to face at client premises.
