Onboarding Software for Staffing Agencies
With Tracker, every new hire makes it to day one.
The moment a placement is made, onboarding automatically starts running. The candidate moves through a mobile-first experience. Documents fill in with Tracker information, signatures capture, eligibility verifies, all in one flow, all writing back to the record. Every step visible on a live dashboard, so nobody falls through between getting the offer and getting to day one.
How it works
Onboarding doesn’t have to wait for a placement
Most agencies start onboarding after the offer. Tracker can start before the match, finish before day one, and leave a worker who wants to come back.
Ahead of the need
Before the placement
Compliance checks, eligibility verification and documentation can all run before a candidate is matched to a role. You hold a bench of workers already cleared to deploy.
Ready before the client calls
Nothing in the gap
Placement to day one
The workflow starts the moment a placement is confirmed. Forms, signatures, verification and reminders run automatically, with every candidate on a live dashboard. Placed and started stop being different things.
Thirty starters, no manual chases
Why they come back
The experience itself
Mobile-first, twenty minutes, and nothing entered twice. In a tight labour market the agency that’s easiest to start with is the one the worker chooses. And the one they return to.
Completed on a phone, in an evening
Because it all runs on the record, the compliance position and the payroll setup are already in place before the first shift starts.
Onboarding+ · Pre-placement checks · Talent pools
Build a bench that’s already cleared to work
Onboarding doesn’t have to be triggered by an offer. Run it early and the answer to “can they start Monday?” is already yes.
Compliance checks and eligibility verification run before a candidate is matched. Not after you’ve won the role.
Documentation collected while the desk has time, not while the clock runs. Held on the record, ready to reuse.
A pool of verified, documented, deployable workers. The bench you can promise a client.
Expiry clocks already running on everything you hold. The bench stays current, not just complete.
When the right role opens, deployment is a decision rather than a project. Speed you can actually charge for.

Onboarding dashboard · Reminders · Audit logs
Know who’s on track and who needs a nudge
Every candidate tracked from placement to start, so a stall is something you see rather than something you discover on Monday.
Every starter in progress on one live dashboard. Across the whole book, not one record at a time.
Reminders sent automatically before anyone has to ask. Thirty new starters, not one manual chase.
Escalation when something stalls close to a start date. Caught while there’s still time to fix it.
Internal tasks tracked alongside candidate steps. Equipment, inductions, system access.
Audit-ready logs of every action, assembled as it happens. Evidence for the client and the regulator.
Matters most to Onboarding teams
Candidate portal · Dynamic forms · Mobile
Twenty minutes, on their phone, nothing entered twice
Onboarding is the first real experience a candidate has of working with you. It’s also where they decide whether there’ll be a second assignment.
A mobile-first portal built for people who are already working. Completed in the evening, not in office hours.
Dynamic form fills auto-populate from what Tracker already holds. The forms remember what they told you.
Returning workers carry completed documents forward. Only what’s expired or changed gets asked for.
Automated alerts and confirmations at each step. The silence between offer and start, closed.
AI-assisted guidance through the tasks that remain. Fewer stalls, fewer support calls.
Matters most to Candidates & contractors
Client packs · Workflows · Hard stops
No two clients are the same. Their onboarding isn’t either.
Complex clients each want their own pack, their own order and their own evidence. Tracker flexes to that without a development project.
Custom packs per client, per role and per jurisdiction. Custom workflows for every client, without the custom build.
Pre-defined default activities fire automatically for each placement type. Built once, running on every placement after.
Progression blocked where something mandatory is missing. Nobody starts without what the site requires.
Bank, tax and pay details captured once, into the record. Ready for payroll and invoicing.
Configured by your own admins, changed the same afternoon. Not a release cycle away.

What changes
Some agencies hope the new starter is coming on Monday. Ones that run on Tracker already know.
Verification and documentation run ahead of the match, so when the right role opens you’re deploying a worker rather than starting a process.
Thirty new starters in a month. Document requests fire by location and placement type, background check results feed back into the record, and the recruiter’s job becomes reviewing and approving, not requesting and chasing.
Onboarding runs from the placement record, not a disconnected portal. The starter who hasn’t submitted by Wednesday gets a reminder before Thursday, and Monday’s client call is to confirm they arrived.
The contract issues the moment the placement is confirmed and gets signed on any device before Friday. The worker starts Monday, and so does the billing.
A worker placed four times in eighteen months doesn’t resend the same documents. Completed documents carry forward, and the agency requests only what has changed or expired.
Workers register with two or three agencies and take whichever moves fastest. One link, eSignature built in and checks triggered automatically: registered Thursday evening, ready to start Friday morning.
This is onboarding into work, not into a company
Tracker onboards the people you place: contractors and candidates starting an assignment. It isn’t an HR system for your own staff, and it doesn’t try to be.
Ongoing obligations after day one live in compliance.
Timesheets, pay and invoicing carry on in back office.
Reminders and escalation run on recruitment automation, so the rules stay yours.
You decide what a complete pack looks like for each client and role.
In their words
Ready before the first day
There’s always a risk of candidates getting through without the right inductions completed. Tracker stops that. Our recruiters can’t place anyone with a client until specific requirements are met. That removes a significant liability for the business.
That’s how I go to bed at night, knowing that I’m compliant.

FAQ
Onboarding questions, answered
Candidate onboarding software for staffing agencies runs the steps that turn a placement into a start: document collection, contracts and eSignature, eligibility verification, payroll details and internal tasks. In Tracker it runs as a workflow on the record, and it can start before a candidate is matched to a role.
Yes, and that’s the main advantage. Compliance checks, eligibility verification and documentation can all run ahead of a match, so you hold a bench of workers who are already verified and deployable the moment the right role opens.
Yes. I-9 and E-Verify are built in for US placements and Right to Work verification for UK placements, alongside built-in eSignature, with no extra seats or third-party tools. Background checks run through integrations with leading providers, triggered from the placement record.
Yes. The candidate portal is mobile-first, so onboarding gets done in the evening rather than during office hours, which matters most for contractors already working elsewhere.
No. Dynamic form fills auto-populate from what Tracker already holds, and returning workers carry completed documents forward, so only genuinely new or expired information is requested.
The system does. Reminders go out automatically before anyone has to ask, a live dashboard shows every starter in progress, and automation escalates when something stalls close to a start date.
Yes. Client, role and site-specific requirements layer on top of the statutory ones, configured by your own administrators rather than built as a development project, and progression can be blocked where something mandatory is missing.
Credentials collected during onboarding feed straight into compliance tracking with expiry dates set as documents are filed, and bank, tax and rate details flow into Tracker’s back office software so the first timesheet and invoice are right first time.
