A status page for recruitment businesses
Candidates apply, and temps submit timesheets, through your systems. When one fails on pay day, a public notice stops the calls before they start.
Where recruitment firms feel a fault
Timing is everything. Late applications and missed timesheets cause problems quickly.
- The job board or application form fails, and candidates cannot apply.
- The timesheet portal is down on the day approvals are due.
- Clients cannot reach the client portal to review candidates.
- Consultants spend the morning answering the same questions.
How a status page helps a recruitment firm
Different groups use different systems. Components let each group find what concerns them.
Components for each audience
List Job board, Applications, Timesheets and Client portal as separate items. See how components work.
Incident updates
Tell people what is affected, and how to submit timesheets in the meantime. See how incidents work.
Scheduled maintenance
Plan upgrades for quiet times and tell people in advance. See how maintenance works.
Email subscribers
Temps and clients can subscribe to hear when things break and when they are fixed. See how subscribers work.
Team access
Share the job between consultants and operations staff.
Worked example: a timesheet portal failure
A fictional agency, Larkfield Staffing, finds its timesheet portal failing on a Monday morning.
Operations logs the fault
Timesheets is set to Major outage with a note on how to send hours by email instead.
Temps are told
Subscribers get an email, and consultants share the link when anyone calls.
The portal returns
Operations posts Monitoring, then Resolved after a test submission.
Deadlines are eased
The final update confirms that late hours will still be paid in the usual run.
This is an illustration of how the features fit together, not a real customer story.
