For technical staffing agencies

Protect the placement. An eight-minute candidate check your clients will thank you for.

Candidates spend eight minutes talking through their own work history, on their own time. Provicio compares what they say to what the resume claims and hands your team a clear, defensible report. Submit with confidence, or catch the problem while it's still cheap.

Built to protect submittals, not to reject candidates. Your recruiters keep recruiting.

What a blown placement costs

  • The guarantee. A free replacement, or a refund, on a placement you already paid commission on.
  • The margin. Weeks of recruiter time sourcing the replacement, at zero additional fee.
  • The client. One “the candidate you sent us wasn't who they said they were” conversation can end a multi-year account.
  • The liability. When a fraudulent contractor touches client systems, the questions come to you first.

The week-three call

The resume cleared. The reference checked out. Then the client called.

Every agency owner has a version of this story. The candidate interviewed well, started Monday, and by the third week the client's lead engineer was asking how someone with “eight years of .NET” couldn't set up a local build. Sometimes it was a coached candidate. Sometimes the person on the video call wasn't the person who did the interview. Either way, the guarantee clock started and the account went cold.

Recruiters can't catch this in a 20-minute phone screen while working a dozen reqs, and it isn't fair to ask them to. Provicio gives them a step that takes thirty seconds to trigger and comes back the same day with evidence they can put in the submittal packet.

In your process

One link, sent whenever your team decides.

Provicio runs asynchronously and doesn't add a meeting to anyone's day, so it fits the workflow your recruiters already run. Some agencies use it on every candidate they intend to present. Some use it only for senior or high-fee roles, or when a client has been burned before. Some run it when a client asks for extra assurance. It's a tool, not a gate.

Recruiters stay fast

Upload the resume. The candidate gets an email in your agency's name. No new tabs to babysit; the result shows up in the dashboard when they're done.

A report you can attach

Each resume claim is marked supported, unsupported, or unverified, with the reasoning. A clean report in the submittal packet is a differentiator when your competitor is sending a PDF and a prayer.

Your judgment, better informed

A low-confidence result doesn't kill a submittal. It tells the recruiter which two claims to ask about on a five-minute follow-up call. Fixable problems get fixed; real problems get caught before your name is on them.

Questions agency owners ask

The honest answers.

Will this slow down submittals?

It shouldn't. The candidate completes the check on their own time; it's eight minutes and no coding, so most people finish it quickly once they receive the link. Triggering it takes a recruiter about thirty seconds. If a client is demanding a name in the next hour, skip it for that one.

Will candidates refuse?

Some will, and that's information. But this is not an assessment or a take-home; it's a short, conversational set of questions about their own work, with a clear explanation of why you're asking and what happens to the data. Candidates who did the work generally find it easy. Positioned as “our clients ask us to verify everyone we send,” it also signals that you run a serious shop.

My recruiters are paid on submittals. Won't they route around this?

Only if it costs them placements, and it's designed not to. The report helps a recruiter defend a strong candidate to a skeptical client as often as it flags a weak one. The people who feel the pain of a blown placement are you and your client, so the tool is built for your process and shows recruiters the fastest path to a clean submittal.

Who is responsible for candidate notices and compliance, us or the client?

Under the rules now in force in NYC, Illinois, and California, liability sits with the employer and its agents, which usually includes the agency. Provicio is built as decision support that never auto-rejects, and we supply the consent screen, a candidate-notice template, a one-page data-handling summary for your clients' legal teams, and a four-year decision-log export. We have not commissioned a third-party bias audit yet and say so. Details on the trust page.

Can we white-label the report for clients?

Candidate emails already go out in your agency's name. Client-facing report branding is on the list for founding customers who want it. Tell us on the call.

What does it cost?

Flat monthly pricing by volume, set with founding customers over the next couple of months; agencies with real volume will get a conversation rather than a price list. The first five accounts get 60 days and 50 checks free. Measure it against one guarantee you didn't have to honor.

Run it on your next fifty submittals. Free.

Founding agencies get 60 days and 50 checks at no cost, plus a report your clients haven't seen from anyone else. Fifteen minutes of feedback a week is the price.
