What is the Frontline 5-Year Placement Warranty?
The 5-Year Placement Warranty is Frontline Source Group's exclusive direct hire protection. If a placement leaves within the first five years of employment, Frontline credits a pro-rated portion of the fee based on active service calendar days. The professional staffing industry standard guarantee is 90 days, so Frontline coverage is 20 times longer. Certain restrictions apply.
How do Chicago employers benefit from using Frontline as a staffing agency?
Chicago employers gain access to Frontline's national candidate pipeline, a 98.94% executive placement retention rate against an industry average of approximately 70%, and the 5-Year Placement Warranty on every direct hire. Employers also avoid the time and overhead of running searches in-house, with Frontline handling sourcing, license and credential verification, structured screening, reference checks, and offer management.
How does Frontline's Chicago pricing work?
Frontline runs three pricing models in Chicago. Direct hire placements are a contingent fee based on the placed candidate's first-year base compensation, invoiced after the start date, and backed by the 5-Year Placement Warranty. Contract and contract-to-hire engagements use a single transparent hourly bill rate that covers candidate wage, payroll taxes, benefits, insurance, and Frontline's service fee. Engagement details are published openly on the Frontline pricing page.
Does a Chicago candidate pay any fee to Frontline?
No. Candidates never pay Frontline for placement, screening, or any service. All Frontline fees are paid by the hiring employer. Chicago candidates submit a resume through the how to apply page, work with a Frontline recruiter on the search, and accept offers directly from the hiring company without any candidate-side cost.
Does Frontline offer remote and hybrid placements for Chicago roles?
Yes. Frontline places fully remote, hybrid, and on-site candidates for Chicago employers depending on the role profile. Many Chicago professional roles in IT, accounting, finance, marketing, and customer service can be staffed remotely or hybrid, while clinical dental, pharmacy, and on-site administrative roles typically require local presence.
How does Frontline source and present candidates for Chicago employers?
Every Chicago search runs through a structured workflow: a kickoff call to define role profile and compensation, candidate sourcing from Frontline's active national pipeline, credential verification, structured screening interviews, reference checks, and candidate slate delivery. A dedicated senior recruiter manages every step, handles candidate communications, and supports the hiring team through start date and beyond, with every direct hire backed by the 5-Year Placement Warranty.
Are confidential job searches available for Chicago professionals?
Yes. Confidential candidate engagement is a default at Frontline. Currently employed Chicago professionals can submit a resume privately, restrict outreach to specific markets or company types, and have their identity withheld from any employer until they personally approve the introduction.

Chicago employers can submit a hiring request through the Frontline employer request form or call (312) 283-0823 to speak with the Chicago team. Chicago candidates submit a resume through the how to apply page. All interviews are by scheduled appointment.
