2.6 The client commits to respond quickly when a consultant presents a candidate. The client must invite the candidate to an interview within 5 working days after we have submitted a presentation of the candidate. If we lose the candidate due to the client does not respond quickly, the customer will be offered an additional candidate for an additional price, calculated in the hours it takes to invite, interview and process an extra candidate or more candidates.

3.2 When you order more of our service you will have to order on the website and secure the payment, we can also help you to make the order. This way we can hold down the prices and this is a vital part of the low price structure. We normally don’t see any problems with this as our clients also need to use internet payment when using Linkedin.
3.3 In some cases, we can offer a Client paying after receiving an invoice. However, the full amount must be paid/received no later than 7 days after ordering, the assignment will first be started when the full amount is received.

All payment is related to our Payment terms: http://4selection.com/payment-terms/
