Definition and classification
Duplicate detection is the automatic detection of candidates submitted more than once through several Staffing provider . The system compares profiles across all providers and flags multiple submissions immediately.
It is therefore an important building block of fair and transparent applicant management.
Why does duplicate detection matter in a multi-vendor setup?
Where a company uses several providers in parallel, they often submit the same candidate more than once. Without automatic detection there are disputes over commission, candidates approached twice and a distorted picture of the applicant situation. Duplicate detection keeps the process clean and the data reliable.
