Fits: Leaders & strategy · Sales · HR

You see earlier which clients will request how many skilled workers in which months. You can align sourcing, the talent pool and dispatch in good time, instead of only starting to search when the request comes in.

Is this for you?

  • You are a staffing agency in temporary agency work or recruitment with recurring clients and recurring roles.
  • You have at least two years of requests, placements and cancellations in your system.
  • Dispatch and sales want to approach candidates proactively, not just on demand.
First step today

Export the monthly requests and placements of the last two years for one large client and one role, replace the client’s name with a code and use the template below to show seasonal patterns and a range for the next three months. Talk the range through with the sales person responsible.

How to go about it

  1. Set clients, roles and time intervals
  2. Gather requests and influencing factors
  3. Have a demand forecast created per client
  4. Compare with the actual requests
  5. Align the pool and sourcing accordingly
  6. Update every month
