“Scissors is so easy to use for our team as well as our clients and contractors. It has transformed our business -- ensuring we are on the cutting edge in our market and stand out from the crowd. The service and support provided by the Scissors team was exceptional. They took the time to really understand our business and shape the app to work for us. They are easy to communicate with and have the desired skill of being able to translate IT language into layman's terms. I would recommend Scissors to everyone!”

“I just wanted to say a massive thank you. This week has been the first week I have used the app for bookings. You have literally brought me into the 21st century. Yesterday was so busy there was no way I could have kept up without the App. It is so nice to be able to see who I have where for the day.”

"Our bookings process has been cut by half. Timesheet processing and Payroll approval is 70% faster. Rostering, adding shifts and filling them is now such a simple process. We believe in a Simple Simon approach. What we do does not need to be complicated as it takes time away from filling the next shift and getting the next client satisfied. Scissors cuts through the “drag and monotonies” of recruitment to get to the REAL work done -- getting staff and clients connected."
Client Self-Service!
Scissors helps recruiters reduce placement time by giving clients controlled self-service options while your agency keeps oversight of jobs, applicants, communication, and timesheets.
Design how your candidates and clients interact with your agency. Scissors can be configured around the modules, terminology, branding, and workflows that fit your business.
Shorten the request process by giving clients the ability to create job requests. Your recruiters can still keep oversight of job details, status, communication, and fulfilment.
Give clients useful candidate information where appropriate. Availability, compliance status, favourites, profiles, feedback, and ratings can help clients make faster decisions without removing agency oversight.
Reduce manual back-and-forth by letting selected job offers flow through the app. Recruiters retain visibility while clients and workers get a cleaner job-filling experience.
Allow clients to approve applicants in supported workflows. Your team can track job status, chosen workers, and the next operational steps from inside Scissors.
Support client, candidate, and recruiter communication with app-based chats. Your team can stay in the loop and jump in when the workflow requires agency support.
Digital Timesheets and Export-Ready Data!
Scissors reduces paper processing with digital timesheets, reminders, approvals, audit trails, expense claims, and payroll-ready export data for your finance systems.
Mobile push notifications remind workers to clock in or out and submit timesheets after shifts. Each notification takes them directly to the app so they can act quickly.
With digital timesheets, workers no longer need to hunt down managers to sign off on paper. Start and end times can be pre-filled to reduce errors, while candidates can edit times for accuracy and submit quickly.
Managers can receive an email notification once a timesheet is submitted and approve it quickly according to your workflow.
Edits to timesheets are timestamped and linked to an account, giving your team a digital audit trail.
Workers can clock in and out from the mobile app, with optional GPS recording or barcode scanning when available onsite. These workflows help clients and agencies understand attendance at the start and end of shifts.
Temps can submit expense claims alongside timesheets and monitor approval status, reducing manual follow-up with finance teams.
Select outstanding timesheets and send reminders to clients in bulk. Reminder wording can be customised to include useful process or deadline information.
Branded Candidate Experience!
Scissors helps staffing agencies deliver a candidate experience that feels modern, mobile, and connected to your agency brand.
Candidates can block off days, longer periods, or partial days when they are unavailable. That helps your team invite workers when they are more likely to be able to accept.
Candidates can set distance preferences so they are offered jobs within their preferred area. Map integrations help them understand where the job is and how long travel may take.
When clients post future jobs, workers can see opportunities ahead and plan their schedule with more confidence.
Workers can turn off notifications when they do not want to be disturbed, then log in later to see available updates.
Workers may prefer not to return to certain workplaces. Scissors can help your team respect those preferences so candidates are not invited to jobs that do not fit.
Temps can submit expense claims through the app and monitor approval status, reducing manual forms and follow-up.
Candidates can receive and give feedback through the app. Ratings, favourites, and feedback can help inform future staffing decisions.
Scissors makes important worker actions simple. Applying for a job or submitting a pre-filled timesheet can each be done quickly from the app.
Compliance Document Database!
Scissors centralises document storage and configurable compliance reminders for candidate and worker records, helping teams avoid missed opportunities due to expired or missing information.
Store and organise candidate documents in one place for easy access and validation. A candidate profile can show document status, version, and expiry information.
Store information in geographically appropriate locations where configured, supporting customer data management and regional operating needs.
Reduce manual expiry tracking. Scissors can monitor document expiry dates and surface the records that need attention.
Scissors can alert your team and candidates when documents are approaching expiry. Notice periods can be configured per document type.
Give clients reassurance by making relevant qualification and compliance information available in supported workflows once a job is booked.
Candidate Availability and Fit!
Scissors helps recruiters invite suitable workers faster by bringing together availability, preferences, compliance status, ratings, favourites, and agency rules.
Use practical candidate data to narrow the list of workers for a job. Availability, distance preferences, compliance status, favourites, ratings, and agency rules help your team focus on candidates who are more likely to be suitable and interested.
Create jobs with an interface designed for repeat staffing workflows. Preset options and structured fields reduce manual input and help keep job details consistent.
Offer jobs to selected or broader candidate groups depending on your workflow. Workers receive notifications, can apply quickly, and recruiters or clients can approve the right applicant.
Instant messaging lets recruiters connect with candidates throughout the job process to answer questions, send updates, and keep communication in one place.
Applicant Screening Workflow!
Manage your candidate intake and onboarding process from first application to approval with configurable application workflows.
Create application workflows with multiple stages, each with its own forms and requirements. Applicants can progress through stages sequentially, while recruiters control access based on completion criteria and track stage status.
Track applications through statuses such as Active, Paused, Declined, Discontinued, and Approved. Capture structured decline reasons where needed and keep recruiters in control of approvals and rejections.
Each application can include a dedicated chatroom where recruiters clarify answers and communicate with applicants, with notifications by push and email.
Include PDF-based forms in your workflow for documents such as employment agreements and compliance checks. Applicants can view and complete PDFs in the system, while recruiters can download completed submissions for records.
