Check before buying: Randstad RiseSmart publishes tiered per-employee prices from $899 to $6,499 for its US small-business Express line, while larger enterprise programs need a direct quote. Because the service profiles candidates' skills and job search behavior in more than 80 countries, ask which Randstad entity processes that data and where it is hosted. For departing staff in California, the CCPA covers that employee data the same way as consumer data.
