The services of recruitment agencies are needed both by ordinary citizens who want to find a job, and by organizations that need qualified personnel. HR specialists carefully check potential employees and employers, so cooperation with them minimizes possible risks. Such services are quite in demand, and some entrepreneurs decide to take advantage of this by opening their own recruitment agency.
Current legislation obliges business owners, when registering with the tax service, to indicate in the application the OKVED encoding, consisting of at least 4 characters. You can select one code, or you can specify several. The number of specified encodings is not limited, but only one of them will be the main code.
In 2021, the OKVED code “Personnel Recruitment” should be taken from the current edition of the OKVED2 classifier (another name ˗ OK 029-2014 (NACE Rev. 2), approved by Order of Rosstandart dated January 31, 2014 No. 14-st).
These encodings are suitable for both organizations and individual entrepreneurs.

It would be nice to find out how many HR agencies there are in the city, in what direction they work, how many agencies have closed and for what reasons. The information obtained will help not only make adjustments to the business plan, but also not repeat the mistakes of predecessors.
After this, you will need to start working with potential clients and study the consumer. For this purpose, you will need to draw up a questionnaire and visit organizations and enterprises.
