Some if you don't bill more than a few times of your basic salary, no commission. This all varies with each recruiting house. You usually have a basic pay.
Is it difficult to hit sales target? How was your method? Care to share?

Will like to know more information on the recruitment agencies industry n head hunting industry.

Like for instance the market rate. How their commission is normally calculated and is it common to have a basic pay over there?

both route can enter recruitment/ HR planning.. an engineer of 2 years here who wish to stay the same pay and slowly transit into HR future... how should I decide?

HR so wide I understand... for me I hope to do recruitment/ understand basic administration, employment laws and act, taxes and one day enter into Business Partnering..

From the 2 jobs i stated, there is also room to do strategic planning like doing headcount and budgeting of headcount every month, problem is which role is better for future jumping of ship? to handle uniformed ppl and civilian is totally different...
Both chocies don't sound like HR at all. If you really interested in HR just apply for a normal HR Exec job, no point going some roundabout route when the pay is so low.

If it is a proper job after graduation, I strongly recommend erasing it and pretend it doesn't exist because quitting 3 months into your first job after graduation doesn't exactly jive well with majority of the people. If it is a holiday job, I guess it's still salvageable though honestly it wouldn't have that much of an impact either way unless it's directly relevant to the next job you're applying for.
