Your Client Hired Your Candidate.
That’s a €15,000 Fee You’ll Never See.
LinkedIn profile edited. Job posting deleted. Introduction email “never received.” Without proof, it’s your word against theirs. ProofSnap archives everything in one click — tamper-proof, timestamped, court-ready.

This happens every week. Is your agency protected?
Three real scenarios. Red = what happens without proof. Green = what happens with ProofSnap.
1. Client hires your candidate “directly”
Without proof:
- • Client claims they “already knew the candidate”
- • Candidate’s LinkedIn “Open to Work” badge? Gone
- • Your introduction email? “We never received it”
- • You lose €15,000–50,000 in fees
With ProofSnap:
- • LinkedIn profile archived at sourcing (with “Open to Work”)
- • Client’s job posting archived with timestamp
- • Your intro email captured and timestamped
- • Full fee recovered. Case closed.
2. Candidate edits LinkedIn after placement
Without proof:
- • You placed a “Senior Engineer, 5 years”
- • Client finds out it was actually 2 years
- • LinkedIn now says something different
- • Fee refunded. Client trust gone.
With ProofSnap:
- • Profile archived at sourcing, submission, and placement
- • All 3 versions match the CV you sent
- • Candidate edited after — your archive proves it
- • Fee protected. Due diligence proven.
3. Candidate claims different salary was posted
Without proof:
- • You posted €70–85K. Candidate claims €80–95K.
- • Original posting deleted from LinkedIn
- • Your ATS log? “You could have changed it.”
- • Your word against theirs.
With ProofSnap:
- • Archived posting clearly shows €70–85K
- • Tamper-proof timestamp proves when it was captured
- • Send the evidence file to the lawyer
- • Claim dismissed. Case over.

These agencies couldn’t prove what they posted.
“Junges dynamisches Team” = age discrimination. Per claimant.
The Bundesarbeitsgericht ruled that phrases like “junges dynamisches Team,” “Berufsanfänger,” or age ranges (“25–35”) in job ads violate AGG §§ 1, 7, 11. Burden of proof shifts to the employer. AGG-Hoppers — serial claimants — systematically target these ads. One non-compliant posting on 5 platforms = 5+ potential claims.
Your risk: You wrote the ad. You published it. You’re independently liable under AGG § 15(2).

Adecco coded candidates by ethnicity. “BBR” = bleu-blanc-rouge.
Adecco France’s subsidiary was investigated for discriminatory filing practices — coding candidates by ethnicity using “BBR” (bleu-blanc-rouge, meaning ethnically French). Criminal proceedings followed. The reputational damage was catastrophic — national media coverage for months.
French law: Up to €225,000 fine + 3 years imprisonment for discriminatory recruitment (Art. 225-2 Code pénal).

Advertised $62/hr. Actual pay: $20/hr. FTC took notice.
Handy Technologies ran ads claiming workers could earn “up to $62/hour.” Real pay: ~$20/hr. Settlement: ~$3M in refunds plus federal monitoring. The EU Pay Transparency Directive mandates salary range disclosure across all 27 member states from June 2026, creating new accountability for posted compensation.
Coming to Europe: The directive makes salary range disclosure mandatory. If the offer doesn’t match the posting, you must prove what you published.

EU Pay Transparency Directive: the clock is ticking
Directive 2023/970 requires salary ranges in every job posting. You post for clients across multiple countries. Every posting without a salary range is a violation — and you’re the one who published it.
Time until mandatory salary disclosure
Member states must transpose by June 7, 2026
Only 7% of EU employers have a pay transparency strategy in place (Mercer 2024). Your clients aren’t ready. Are you?
€152/month for your entire team. Less than one AGG claim.
A single AGG-Hopper claim costs €1,500–3,500 in compensation alone — before legal fees. ProofSnap for an 8-person team: €152/month. The math is obvious.
