Services & Pricing

What services do you offer?

Seven core services: Bulk Hiring, Short-Term Assignments, Permanent Staffing, Contract Staffing, Contract-to-Hire, Temporary Staffing and Project-Based Hiring — all enhanced with AI-powered recruitment technology.

It depends on the service: Permanent placements are charged as a percentage of first-year CTC. Contract/Temp staffing uses a monthly per-seat rate. Project-based uses T&M or fixed-price models. Contact us for a tailored quote.

Are there minimum volume requirements?

No. We support requirements ranging from a single executive search to 5,000+ bulk hires. Every mandate gets the same attention and service quality.

Do you offer replacement guarantees?

Yes — 90 days for permanent placements, 30 days for contract hires, 24 hours for temporary staff. Specifics depend on the service model.

For Job Seekers

Do I need to pay fees to register?

No — it's completely free for job seekers. We are paid by hiring companies. Anyone who asks you for money to "guarantee" a job is not authorised by Cynosure.

How do I submit my CV?

Email your CV to corp@cynosurejobs.com, or browse live openings at our jobs portal and apply directly.

Will my current employer find out I'm job-hunting?

No. Your profile is handled confidentially. We only share your CV with companies after your explicit approval for each specific opportunity.

How long until I hear about opportunities?

For profiles matching active mandates, typically 3–7 days. For niche profiles, it may take longer — we keep your profile on file and reach out as relevant roles open up.

For Employers

How quickly can you start a new engagement?

From signed agreement to active sourcing: typically 48–72 hours. For urgent requirements, we can spin up a team within 24 hours.

Do you sign NDAs?

Yes, absolutely. We regularly handle confidential executive searches, unannounced site launches and strategic initiatives under strict NDA.

Do you use AI in your process?

Yes — extensively. AI handles CV parsing, candidate ranking, skill matching and interview scheduling. Our human recruiters handle interviews, culture fit assessment and client relationships. Learn more on our AI Recruitment page.

AI & Technology

Is AI replacing human recruiters at Cynosure?

No — and we don't want it to. AI handles repetitive high-volume tasks. Our human recruiters handle the nuanced, relationship-driven work. Together they deliver better outcomes than either alone.

Is my data safe?

Yes. We follow enterprise-grade data security — encrypted storage, access controls, regular audits and full compliance with India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act.

How do you prevent AI bias?

Our AI models focus on job-relevant signals and mask demographic identifiers. We also run regular bias audits to verify fair outcomes across diverse talent pools.
