management of suppliers
An important aspect of temp hiring is the quality of the relationship you have with your suppliers. Clear agreements and communication will help you get a strong grip on the selection process and maintain it in the long term.
Classifying your suppliers gives your organization clear insight into the specific areas of expertise of your suppliers. Whatever classification method you prefer, peoplexs supports it.
You can give suppliers access to a special vendor portal. In this way they can see what (temporary) jobs are open. They can propose the candidates a matching temp vacancy right there. You decide what agencies are allowed to propose.
posting temp jobs
To successfully fill temporary vacancies, you depend on a correctly executed process by the business and the allocation to the right agency. A good grip on this process ensures adequate supply of good quality from well-selected sources.
Via the management portal, applications for temporary workers can be directly recorded into the application. Based on the workflow that you specifically defined, the application is approved and prepared for posting.
Not all assignments are the same and not all suppliers are specialized in same kind of job types that you require. That’s why you want to be able to decide which supplier may contact you for which temporary vacancy. This you can also commission directly from the management portal.
Questions or comments about the outstanding temp vacancy can be directly addressed from the supplier portal with the client.
proposing candidates
Suppliers with access to your supplier portal can easily present candidates based on your outstanding positions. Depending on the information needs of your organization, you can decide which specific data the supplier should deliver to you.
Each candidate presented by you, follows the workflow set by you. When it is decided to proceed with a temp hire, then the supplier will be informed through the supplier portal. The related documents and passport copy etc. will be added to the candidate’s file.
Generating a contract is also supported by the system. If a candidate has multiple assignments, then for each job separate contract is created. The system signals in time when contracts expire. If necessary, approve for extension and generating new contracts can easily be done from Peoplexs.

As principal you benefit by a proper assessment of the performance of your suppliers. Using the custom reports module, you can easily retrieve this information yourself to make the right decisions, alter plans and refine your temp hiring strategy.
