From CV to compliant file — without a single recruiter chasing a payslip.

Candidate Intake Chaos — Files Lost Between Applicant and Placement

WFDM's own About text concedes that the friction at intake is the thing that originally validated the temping model — applicants and employers being 'lost in the process for submitting files, recruiting legally and furthermore finding the right person.' For a Malta + Cyprus temping agency that scaled from 1 to 150 employees in under five years, intake is the unglamorous bottleneck behind every placement: ID scans, work permits, Jobsplus declarations, contract signatures, language preferences. Every minute a recruiter spends chasing a missing payslip or translating a Lithuanian CV for a Maltese hospitality client is a minute not spent placing the next candidate. With a 25–100 headcount supporting an outsourced workforce that has historically reached ~150, the ratio of admin-per-placement is the silent ceiling on growth.
