Selection Lab does not publish a fixed public price list. The pricing model is individualized: your final cost depends on the specific skill tests you activate, the number of candidates you assess, and the features or integrations your workflows require. As the pricing page states directly, "Every hiring process is different, and so is our pricing."
That approach makes sense given what the platform actually does. A logistics company screening 800 warehouse operators per quarter needs a different configuration than a professional services firm assessing 30 senior hires per year. A flat-rate table would either overcharge one or underserve the other.
This page explains exactly what drives the Selection Lab pricing model, how volume bands work, what components typically appear in a quote, and what to prepare before a pricing call so you can compare numbers accurately.
Three inputs determine the final price, according to the Selection Lab pricing form:
These three variables interact. A high-volume retail hire with a single standardized test looks very different from a lower-volume cohort requiring a multi-stage assessment bundle with ATS integration and structured interview guides.
The Selection Lab pricing form routes buyers into five candidate-volume bands:
| Band | Typical use case |
|---|---|
| 1–50 candidates | Pilot programs, small teams, targeted specialist hiring |
| 51–150 candidates | Growing mid-market teams, selective cohort hiring |
| 151–500 candidates | Scale-up recruitment, multi-role programs |
| 501–1,500 candidates | High-volume hiring, shared-service HR teams |
| 1,500+ candidates | Enterprise and staffing-agency scale |
Higher volumes increase the value of automating intake and screening through SmartChat flows. The ROI case shifts as volume grows: Selection Lab's data points to an ROI exceeding 800% across its client base, with documented reductions in mishires of up to 67%. At scale, those figures are directly tied to candidate throughput.
While specific euro amounts are quote-dependent, a typical Selection Lab engagement includes four cost components:
A simple way to estimate your total once you have unit figures from the quote call:
(Unit price per candidate assessed) x (forecast candidate volume) + (integration/setup fee if applicable) = estimated annual cost
That formula gives you a comparable number across vendors. Selection Lab will provide the unit inputs on the call.
These examples show how the formula works. Replace the placeholder values with the actual figures Selection Lab provides.
Scenario A: Retail volume hiring (e.g., 600 seasonal warehouse candidates)
Scenario B: Professional services cohort (e.g., 80 graduate hires)
Scenario C: Staffing agency (e.g., 1,200 candidates across multiple clients)
All three scenarios are illustrative until Selection Lab confirms final unit pricing on your quote call.
From Selection Lab's General Terms and Conditions (v.3.0):
The CBS CPI + 3% indexation rule is worth building into your multi-year budget model. On a modest base, the annual adjustment is predictable and formula-driven rather than arbitrary.
Does Selection Lab publish list prices? No. Pricing is tailored to each organization's test mix, candidate volume, and required integrations. You request a quote via the pricing form at selectionlab.com/pricing-form, and the team proposes an optimal plan on a short call.
What information do you need to provide for an accurate quote? Bring your forecast candidate volume, the roles you're hiring for, the assessment types you want to activate, your ATS system, and any integration or reporting requirements. The more specific you are, the faster the quote turnaround.
Is pricing per recruiter seat, per job posting, or per candidate? The pricing model is tied to the number of candidates assessed and the test mix activated, not to recruiter seats or job postings. Exact unit pricing is confirmed during the quote process.
How does VAT work? All quoted prices are in euros, excluding Dutch VAT and any other applicable levies. VAT is added on the invoice based on your applicable rate.
How does annual indexation work? Each 1 January, your contracted fees are adjusted using the most recently published CBS CPI (all households) figure, plus 3%. This applies from the start of each new contract year.
Schedule a short call with the Selection Lab team. They'll walk through your specific hiring context, recommend an assessment configuration, and provide a clear pricing proposal matched to your use case and volume band.
