{"faqs":[{"answer":"By confirming placement satisfaction at day-7 and day-30 milestones, these calls surface early concerns—like role misfit or cultural issues—allowing recruiters to intervene before the executive resigns, protecting your retained search fee in a model that represents 62.88% of the market.","question":"How do Customer Onboarding Check-In Calls help reduce placement refunds in retained search engagements?"},{"answer":"Yes, but we review list source and consent records first—only approved, permissioned, or reviewed lists are used.
