The company's technology layer centers on a proprietary recruitment platform with an Applicant Tracking System that incorporates AI-assisted resume screening, keyword optimization, custom candidate registration forms, deferred video interviews, and mini video presentations. It integrates with 28 job-order platforms and aggregators for distribution. Candidate-facing digital channels include the MySynergie self-service portal, online digital signature for employment contracts, and recruiting day events; business clients are reached through a direct enterprise sales motion supported by 180+ physical branch offices across Italy.

Synergie Italia generates revenue across multiple streams: managed services from temporary labor supply and HR outsourcing (where the firm acts as employer of record), and professional services fees from recruitment, training, RPO, and outplacement. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is contracted per client. The customer base spans more than a dozen industry verticals (aeronautics, banking, healthcare, manufacturing, retail, hospitality, logistics, fashion, chemicals, food & beverage, public administration, professional services) with no named anchor accounts, implying a diversified, low-concentration revenue mix and 22,000 monthly placements across the network.
