Why agencies join Slate

Permanent placement work, without the cold outreach

Access to a network of schools
Slate works with schools that are actively hiring permanent staff. You don't have to chase the relationship — the roles come to you.
Steady pipeline of placements
Open roles from across the network are surfaced in one place, so your team can spend the day placing candidates instead of prospecting schools.
Compete on quality, not volume
When you ship great candidates, schools come back. Slate makes that reputation visible across the network — good work compounds.
How Slate works for agencies

Submit candidates to schools that are ready to hire

Apply to join Slate. Submit candidates to live permanent roles across the network. Pay 6% of the school's placement fee only when a placement is made — never before.

01

Apply to the panel

Tell Slate about your agency, your focus area, and the regions you cover. Once approved, you get visibility into permanent roles across the network.

02

Submit candidates to live roles

When schools post a permanent role, you see it instantly. Submit candidates with résumé, salary expectation, and fit details — all through Slate.

03

Pay 6% of the placement fee

If a school hires your candidate, you pay 6% of the school's placement fee — not 6% of the salary. No monthly fees, no upfront costs, no charges if a candidate isn't selected.

Fee structure for agencies

Only pay on successful placements

Slate's agency-side fee is 6% of the placement fee the school pays — not 6% of the candidate's salary. Billed only when a placement is actually made through Slate. No monthly fees. No upfront costs. You only pay when a placement is made.

Success-only billing
Agencies pay
6%
of the placement fee
Calculated on the school's 12% placement fee — not on the candidate's salary.
Example math
On a $52,000 annual teacher salary, the school's placement fee is $6,240 (12%). Your agency fee is ≈ $374 — 6% of that $6,240, billed only on placements that go through.
The deal in one line
No monthly fees. No upfront costs. You only pay when a placement is made.
