Billing model

How it works

You set a budgetA hard cap on spend
You set a targetCost per application, or a fixed cost per click
You pay per clickClicks priced toward your target
ApplicationsThey come in; adjust budget and target anytime

What you pay for

  • Clicks on your jobs, priced to hit your target cost per click (CPC) or cost per application (CPA)

What you never pay

  • Subscription or seat fees
  • Per-job posting fees
  • Duplicate or invalid clicks
  • Candidate fees: job seekers never pay

Your budget is a hard cap and your target is a goal the platform optimizes toward, not a promised price. Set a target too low and your jobs may win few or no clicks: you'll see it in volume, never in surprise charges, and you can adjust anytime.

Your cost

What affects your advertising costs

Everything starts from one number: what an application should cost for your roles. Four things move that number. There is no rate card:

RoleA CDL application ≠ a cashier application
LocationThe same role prices differently by market
CompetitionWho else wants these candidates right now
Your goalVolume, speed, or qualification tightness

You manage the target, not the clicks: set a target cost per application and the platform works out the click price, or run a fixed cost per click you control directly.

Why Talroo

More than clicks. Better-informed applicants.

Talroo reaches candidates across its own job advertising network, including Jobs2Careers, an audience built around hourly and frontline work. SmartQualify shows job seekers the pay, schedule and requirements, and asks your must-have questions before they apply, so more of your applicants match what you actually need.

Questions buyers ask

Pricing FAQ

How much does Talroo cost?

You set a budget, starting at $2,000 per month, and you pay per click. Rates depend on your roles and markets; talk to us and we'll size a budget for your hiring goals.

Is there a minimum budget?

Yes. Campaigns start at $2,000 per month. The platform is built for continuous, multi-role hiring. If your budget is under $2,000 a month or you're hiring a single role, use ReadySetHire instead.

Does Talroo charge per application?

Campaigns bill per click, with the click price worked back from your target cost per application. You manage the target, and the platform manages the clicks. A per-application billing arrangement exists for select campaigns; ask your rep if it fits your setup. Either way, there is no subscription.

Is Talroo a subscription?

No. There are no plan, seat or platform fees. You only pay for clicks.

Is there a contract?

No annual contract. Campaigns run month to month, and you can pause or adjust any time.

Can I set a weekly budget?

Yes. Budgets can be monthly, one-time, or set over a custom date range, including a week.

What happens when my budget runs out?

Your job ads stop running, and they start again when the budget resets or you add more. Unspent budget is never billed: monthly budgets reset each month, and date-range budgets run until their end date.

What counts as a billable click?

A real job seeker clicking through to your job. Duplicates and invalid traffic are filtered before billing.

Do job seekers ever pay?

Never. Candidates don't pay to search, view or apply.

How am I billed?

Campaigns run month to month. You're billed for the previous month's activity, with 30-day payment terms.

What happens if my target cost per application is set too low?

Your target converts into bids, and a very low target means low bids that win few or no clicks. You'll see it as low volume, never as charges beyond your budget. Raise the target, or work with your rep to find the level your market clears at.

What roles and industries does Talroo specialize in?

Talroo specializes in frontline and hourly hiring at volume: warehouse and manufacturing, trucking and CDL, healthcare (CNA, RN, LPN, home care), restaurants, retail, call centers, and staffing agencies. Executive, tech and office roles are usually better served through other channels.

What if I'm only hiring one role?

Use ReadySetHire, Talroo's self-serve job posting product. No contracts, no minimums.
