Our insights
We identified 3 top challenges for staffing agencies
Lost knowledge
When experienced recruiters leave the organization, their knowledge and best practices are not automatically transferred to the remaining team. This means that the creation of job postings is often left in the hands of newcomers who may have relatively little departmental knowledge to write the best job postings.
Lack of quality
Text quality is influenced by any number of seemingly small things. Together, these flaws can add up to a low-quality job posting. Special attention must be paid to spelling and grammatical errors, optimization for SEO/Google for Jobs, accessible language, and accurate and complete content. For example, a job posting should include required job skills and mention the right employee motivators.
Limited Target Group
If you want to attract many suitable candidates, you should try to reach a target group that is as large and diverse as possible. At the same time, you want all your text to be in line with your organization’s branding, so you always convey the right message.
What Textmetrics Solves

The 4 pillars of the Textmetrics solution
Augmented Writing
The Textmetrics augmented writing environment generates improvements and assists your staff in writing high-quality content. It reads and assesses while the content is being written and gives suggestions on how to improve the text. This according to preset criteria which meet your company’s standards. Existing content can also be monitored and quality can be controlled.
Algorithms
The artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms start by analyzing and measuring your company’s lexicon.
Textmetrics contains a vast set of algorithms that are able to interpret wording and suggest changes while writing content. The AI based algorithms are able to recognize aspects such as how formal/informal the text is, how sophisticated/easy to read, how friendly, amicable, neutral, feminine, masculine, and so on. Centrally, you can select your company’s preferences and, automatically, any person who writes content will be supported to apply the selected settings.
