They don't get a cut for the interview, but they do if you are hired and it's a lot. Something like 5-10% of your salary. If they fill a $100k position, they get something like $10k. Or, their employer does. Which is why you see so many recruiters self-employed.

I figured it should be for hires, not just finding candidates and getting interviews. Guy must be a bit of a rookie if he thinks I'd seriously convert into a hire but I guess it's a tight market in that specific sector.
