How NextPath Is Building a Bullhorn Database Their Recruiters Can Rely On

NextPath is a people-first workforce solutions partner built on one simple idea: exceptional results come from exceptional people. We spoke with Dena Vaccaro, Marketing Manager, about how Clean by Broad & Madison is helping them get more from their database of over 350,000 records.

A Bullhorn database ready for its next chapter

When you're managing over 350,000 candidate, contact, and company records, keeping data clean and current is no small undertaking. For NextPath, duplicate records and incomplete profiles had made it harder for recruiters to quickly find and engage the right candidates,  with search results that didn't always reflect the quality of the Bullhorn database behind them.

The opportunity was clear: a cleaner, more reliable database that could match the standard of the people-first service NextPath is built on.

What Clean uncovered

Working with Broad & Madison, NextPath used Clean to surface and merge over 6,000 duplicate records across candidates, contacts, and companies. But the impact went beyond the numbers.

"Clean also gave us visibility into where most duplicates were originating, allowing us to address root causes and prevent the issue from continuing."

Finding reassurance in their systems and workflows

One of the more welcome discoveries came from the 'aha moment' the process surfaced.

"One pleasant surprise was discovering that the majority of our duplicate issues were tied to legacy data from several years ago, rather than our current processes. It was reassuring to see that the systems and workflows we have in place today are performing much better and helping maintain cleaner, more accurate data moving forward."

What comes next?

It's still early days, but Dena’s ambition is clear: "As the data continues to get cleaner, we anticipate a noticeable boost in productivity and overall user experience, with a database that increasingly reflects the quality of service the team delivers." 

Why NextPath recommends Clean

For other staffing agencies considering the same move, Dena's recommendation gets to the heart of what Clean is really about:

"I'd absolutely recommend working with Broad & Madison, especially if your goal is to drive better team adoption of your own database instead of relying on external tools to find quality candidates. When your data is clean and reliable, your recruiters are far more likely to stay within your ATS, work more efficiently, and get better results from their searches. It's not just about cleaning up data. It's about making your database a tool your team actually wants to use."
