Direct answer
If no qualified interview happens, you pay $0.
Pay on performance: the first qualified interview request from a new company is free. Each later new company that requests one costs $200 once. Later rounds at the same company are free.
What counts
| Employer response | Counts? | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Live first-round conversation requested by the employer or hiring team | Yes | It is a qualified interview invitation |
| Later round at a company already counted | No new charge | Each company counts once |
| Automated assessment or one-way video | No | It is not a live conversation |
| Generic talent community email | No | It is not an invitation for a specific role |
| Conversation from the customer's own network | No | Salvo did not source the outcome |
What does the value look like?
Five new companies ask to interview you: the first is free, then four at $200 each. Total Salvo cost: $800.
If one becomes your next job, there is no extra placement fee.
This is a simple salary and pricing example, not a promise. Matching role supply and employer decisions limit results. Salvo does not guarantee five interviews or a job.
How is this different from paying for application volume?
| Service | Published payment model | What triggers payment? |
|---|---|---|
| Salvo | First qualified new-company interview free, then $200 per later new company once | A person verifies a qualified interview request |
| LoopCV | Free tier, paid plans from €9.99 per month | Access to a higher-volume software plan |
| Scale.jobs | $199 to $1,099 one-time application bundles | Buying an application package |
