What is the name of your state? England, UK
We recently used 2 recruitment agencies to fill a very specific vacancy.
Agency A immediately recommended a candidate over the phone in particular and later faxed her CV along with others.
Agency B faxed several CV's, including the same candidate.
All CV's were compiled during the week and then reviewed. Suitable candidates were selected for interview. As Agency A had lower fees, we selected the candidate through Agency A and have subsequently offered her the job.
Agency B are now asking for payment as they faxed her CV although all interview arrangements and negotiations were with Agency A.
Surely we are not obliged to pay.
Any help / advice appreciated.
