The intake flow explained
From request to start date — what happens behind the scenes, and how long does each step take?
The complete process in 7 steps
- Request received — via form, WhatsApp, phone or portal
- Briefing call (within 4 hours) — the recruiter calls to go into detail
- Matching (4–24 hours) — the recruiter scans the pool and screens candidates
- Profiles delivered (24–48 hours) — anonymous cards in the portal or by email
- Approval & interview — you select, we arrange the introduction
- Contract & onboarding — we handle all the paperwork
- Start & aftercare — first working day, check-in after 1 week
What exactly does the recruiter do?
The recruiter is your single point of contact throughout the assignment. Specifically, they:
- Understand your request and ask the right follow-up questions
- Search our pool of 250+ active skilled workers
- Call potential candidates to check availability and motivation
- Prepare anonymous profiles (avoiding name/photo bias)
- Arrange introductory interviews at your site or via video call
- Arrange housing, transport and all contractual matters
- Carry out the week-1 and month-1 aftercare call
Onboarding — what do we do before day 1?
As soon as you approve a candidate, we arrange:
- staffing contract (your hirer's remuneration under the CAO)
- ID check & BSN verification
- VCA / mandatory certificates (check & renew)
- Housing (SNF location if required)
- Transport (carpool or public transport)
- Workwear/PPE (S3 safety shoes, helmet, hearing protection)
- Safety briefing (in their own language)
Aftercare and feedback loop
After week 1, your recruiter calls both the candidate and you for a short check. Is everything going well? Does anything need adjusting? And again after 1 month. This prevents 80% of the minor irritations that would otherwise escalate.
