NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

Services

This Agreement sets out the way in which each party is to interact with the other for the purpose of conducting business. Specific services are defined in addendums to this Agreement. Services not specified in an amendment will be agreed to in some form of writing.

Independent Contractor

Producer shall provide the Services as an Independent Contractor and Producer shall not act as an employee, agent or broker of the Client. As an Independent Contractor, Producer will be solely responsible for paying any and all taxes levied by applicable laws on its compensation. Producer understands that Client will not withhold any amounts for payment of any taxes from Producer's compensation.

Payment

If not otherwise specified on an invoice or written agreement, payment is due seven (7) days from the invoice date (also known as Net 7 Terms) with a late penalty being assessed at 1.5% per month past due. We currently accept ACH transfers via our invoice system.

The Client agrees to reimburse any pre-approved out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Producer, in connection with the Services, including, but not limited to, travel expenses, food, lodging, etc.

Termination

(a) Either party may terminate this Agreement for convenience by providing one (1) month’s written notice (“Termination Notice”) to the other party.

(b) If a party violates its obligations to be performed under this Agreement, the other party may terminate the Agreement by sending a one (1) month’s notice in writing. Upon receiving such notice, the defaulting party shall have one (1) month from the date of such notice to cure any such default. If the default is not cured within the required one (1) month period, the party providing notice shall have the right to terminate this Agreement.

Assignment

Client shall not assign any of their rights under this Agreement, or delegate the performance of any of the obligations or duties hereunder, without the prior written consent of the Producer and any attempt by Client to so assign, transfer, or subcontract any rights, duties, or obligations arising hereunder shall be void and of no effect without such consent.

Confidential Information

Each Party recognizes and acknowledges that both Parties have and will have access to Confidential and Proprietary Information of the other which will constitute valuable, special, and unique assets. The term "Proprietary Information" shall mean the following information:

  • The methods and processes with which each party does business, including, but not exclusively, forms, procedures (written or practiced), technologies used
  • The contacts and connections each party utilizes to conduct business
  • Anything that is not readily made public.

Each Party covenants and agrees that it shall have the affirmative obligation to:

  1. hold the Confidential Information in its strictest of confidence;
  2. not use the Confidential Information for any personal gain or detrimentally to the other;
  3. take all steps necessary to protect the Confidential Information from disclosure and to implement internal procedures to guard against such disclosure;
  4. not disclose the fact that the Confidential Information has been made available, that discussions or negotiations are taking place or have taken place or any of the terms, conditions, or other facts with respect to the transaction; and
  5. not disclose or make available all or any part of the Confidential Information to any person, firm, corporation, association, or any other entity for any reason or purpose whatsoever, directly or indirectly, unless and until such Confidential Information becomes publicly available other than because of the breach by the Receiving Party of his confidentiality obligations hereunder.
This Section shall survive and continue after any expiration or termination of this Agreement and shall bind Receiving Party, its agents, representatives, successors, heirs, and assigns.

Non-Solicitation

Both parties covenant and agree that, for a period of two years, neither shall, without the prior written consent of the other, directly or indirectly, whether for its own account or on behalf of any person, firm, corporation, partnership, association, or other entity or enterprise, solicit, recruit, hire or cause to be hired any employees of the other party or any of its affiliates, or any person who was an employee of the Company during the effect of this Agreement.

Governing Law

This Agreement is to be construed in accordance with and governed by the internal laws of the State of Georgia, USA in Bryan County (where county jurisdiction matters).

Dispute Resolution

All disputes under this Agreement shall be settled by arbitration in Bryan County before a single arbitrator pursuant to the commercial law rules of the American Arbitration Association. Arbitration may be commenced at any time by any party hereto giving written notice to the other party to a dispute that such dispute has been referred to arbitration. Any award rendered by the arbitrator shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto.

This provision for arbitration shall be specifically enforceable by the parties and the decision of the arbitrator in accordance herewith shall be final and binding without right of appeal.

Severability

If any provision of this Agreement shall be held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under present or future laws, such provisions shall be fully severable, this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part of this Agreement; and, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

We do not maintain or promise regular office hours, but are generally available and working 8 am-5 pm EST.

Client Responsibility

Client is ultimately responsible for their process and technical environments. Producer will use any granted access to assess available data and execute duties, but Client may need to provide other information as requested. Client is also responsible for timely approval of proposed changes and granting access to Client’s infrastructure if such access is desired by Client and Producer.

Credits

Provided Producer renders all services contracted hereunder, Producer has the right to list Client as a reference. Further, Producer maintains all the rights to its work, but Client has all rights to its customized process.

Scope of Work

This Master Service Agreement does not cover any specific type of work, but all general work where a Service Addendum (SA) is not agreed to prior to service being performed. It is customary that a SA(s) be added to this agreement specifying more precise details of services to be rendered and for what consideration. If no SA is agreed to, the standard hourly rate set by Producer is $250 per hour, billed in quarter-hour increments.

vScreening Addendum

If any terms conflict between the Master Service Agreement and this Addendum, then the Addendum will be considered the overriding agreement.

Services

Client hereby appoints Producer to provide vScreening Services to Client by authorizing Producer to market, screen, and recommend for hire for any positions requested of Producer for Client’s own business. Producer makes no claims as to the fitness of any candidate to work, except that, to the best of Producer's belief, the candidate is a fit for Client’s organization. When Producer recommends a candidate for hire, Client is to contact the candidate within two (2) business days of the recommendation, or Producer may offer the candidate to other interested parties.

Guarantees

Should a candidate hired on the recommendation of Producer not remain employed by Client for 90 days from the candidate's start date, Producer guarantees to refill the position. Under this guarantee, Client is responsible only for paying the marketing expense set forth in this agreement.

Payment

Payment for this service is in three parts.

1.) $3950 pre-paid, effort-based, and not contingent upon a hire. (this is the transaction you are making right now)
2.) $200/mo marketing expenses are to be paid by Client  each month that the position is open (you will be invoiced)
3.) $3950 placement fee once Client hires a candidate. (you will be invoiced)

Applicants who apply directly to Client or through any other source are to be referred to Producer for formal screening to maintain consistency and prevent unfair hiring practices. Producer has done valuable work before the position is filled, so if the position is filled outside of the scope of services provided by Producer, item 1 above is considered delivered in full.

Requests for positions for Producer to screen can be made via email to our address in Notices. In the case of Client hiring additional team members based on the procurement and recommendation of Producer, regardless of if a request was made in advance, items 1 and 3 (screening and placement) will be charged for each additional position. An example of this is hiring two of the recommended candidates when initially only one position was requested.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have signed this Addendum as of the date first set forth above and acknowledge in the page count in the footer that all pages have been reviewed and accounted for.
