De Transparante Broker is a distinctive player in interim staffing and secondment. Early last year, the team increasingly reached the limits of manual sourcing, as interim requests often combine complex requirements with highly specific preferences. With NIXZ, they chose a solution that automates and accelerates this process by using AI to find suitable candidates directly from detailed role descriptions.
Time-consuming sourcing was replaced by a scalable approach centred on speed and quality of match.
Before working with NIXZ, sourcing depended heavily on manual search. Recruiters translated complex requirements into queries and manually checked whether candidates met every criterion. Each assignment required an average of two to three hours of work before substantive selection could begin.
Every request contains hard requirements, nuances and context that are difficult to capture with standard filters.
“On paper, a search looks manageable, but in practice several hours pass before you have identified genuinely suitable profiles—and even then, you cannot be certain you have covered everything.”
Michelle Kooijman, Senior Recruiter
The team needed to scale, maintain submission quality and keep recruiters focused on conversation and advice rather than search.
For more than five years, De Transparante Broker has connected freelancers and secondment professionals directly with assignments, providing full transparency from start to finish. No hidden interests or unnecessary complexity, but a clear and reliable process for everyone.
Assignments are accessible, their origin is clear and the margin per hour worked is always transparent.
The team already used NIXZ Interim to monitor assignments automatically and keep them synchronised with the ATS. That familiarity made adopting AI sourcing practical and straightforward.
The time needed to produce an initial useful selection fell from hours to minutes. From a detailed assignment description, NIXZ generates a search profile and evaluates hundreds of profiles before presenting a shortlist.
“Translating a complex request into search filters used to take a great deal of time. Now we immediately receive a relevant selection and can handle a higher volume.”
Bas van Oers, Director
NIXZ handled the heavy preparatory work, while recruiters applied their expertise to selection. The number of profiles needing review per assignment was more than halved.
What began with a few assignments soon became a standard part of the sourcing process.
Shortlists were produced sooner, match quality improved and turnaround time fell by 30–50%, depending on complexity and volume.
Recruiters experience more calm and clarity, while the same team can process more requests in parallel.
“I no longer have to search endlessly. The foundation is right, so I can focus my energy on comparison and conversation.”
Michelle Kooijman, Recruitment Consultant
Because everyone works from the same output, assessments have become more consistent. Sourcing has shifted from bottleneck to foundation.
De Transparante Broker demonstrates that technology and expertise can be combined effectively. With NIXZ, AI takes over the heavy search work while recruiters focus on quality and relationships.
Using AI sourcing structurally creates a reliable, consistent and scalable approach as volume and complexity increase.
