Q&A
Frequently asked questions about ProxyMatch
Short, direct answers about recruitment & selection with AI and how ProxyMatch works in Groningen and the Northern Netherlands.
- What is AI recruitment & selection?
- With AI recruitment & selection, software matches candidates and vacancies on skills, experience and motivation — not just CV keywords. It speeds up pre-selection; the final choice remains human work. The chosen candidate is hired directly by the employer.
- How exactly does ProxyMatch’s matching work?
- We build a profile of the candidate or vacancy, have AI make a pre-selection based on skills and fit, and deliver a well-founded shortlist within days that you review together with a recruiter.
- Who is ProxyMatch for?
- For employers in Groningen, Friesland and Drenthe who want to find suitable staff faster, and for job seekers in the Northern Netherlands who want to be matched on their skills — not just diplomas.
- When does ProxyMatch launch?
- In 2026, as an AI-driven recruitment & selection platform for the Groningen region. Those who sign up in advance will be the first to know when the platform goes live.
- How much does recruitment & selection cost?
- Costs vary per assignment and are usually calculated as a percentage of the gross annual salary or as a fixed fee per placement. You pay for the placement, not for a temporary assignment. ProxyMatch works with transparent rates with no surprises afterwards.
- What is the difference between a staffing agency and recruitment & selection?
- With a staffing agency, the candidate is employed temporarily by the staffing agency. With recruitment & selection like ProxyMatch, the candidate is hired directly by the employer: we find and select the best match on skills, and the employer hires them directly.
