i wonder if its just to say they had people applying, but the company is using that to lower thier taxes with thier countries tax schemes or not hire enough to justify a budget.
Could be that or it could even be that the service went to shit and they have no way of getting out of contract. I talked to one guy who worked C-suite at a small company and apparently the previous CEO before his boss sign a shit contract back in 2018 for hiring services from one of these companies, they want to terminate it but even circumnavigation of the contract risks severe penalties, their solution to getting new staff is to literally have people spin up a shell company buy and absorb it then onboard the socalled employees.
Frankly it seems these hiring companies are just parasites that popped up due to companies not knowing how to do online shit. Then fucking everyone over via shitty contracts.
i assume you mean recruiting companies? it doesnt seem like every company uses them. or its the software license that screens out/hires applicants? seems the latter is more common.
