Revolutionize the Way You Hire Employees

Introducing Hired by shiftNOW

For the hospitality industry, labor has long been a source of struggle. From staffing shortages to high turnover rates, finding consistent, quality workers is an issue that traditional hiring platforms haven’t successfully solved.

At shiftNOW, we’re revolutionizing the way the hospitality industry hires employees. Our new Hired subscription is a game-changing solution designed to help businesses connect with qualified candidates and build their workforce efficiently. 

Why Choose shiftNOW Over Job Boards?

With shiftNOW’s Hired subscription, you’re not just posting a job and waiting for applications to trickle in—you’re gaining instant access to a curated pool of hospitality professionals. Our platform is designed to meet your unique staffing needs, whether you’re looking for one-time, part-time, or full-time hires. Say goodbye to the uncertainty of traditional job boards and hello to a faster, more reliable way to build your team.

How does shiftNOW’s Hired subscription differ from job boards and traditional hiring platforms? We’re glad you asked!

Monthly Free Hires

Finding top-tier talent with the necessary skills your business requires is challenging and time consuming. Not to mention, traditional hiring methods often come with hefty subscription and hiring fees. Oftentimes, businesses are paying job boards to simply post or receive applications for a job.

With Hired, users receive two free hires per month which are included in the cost of the subscription. Two free hires for as little as $299/month — when it comes to hiring platforms, our pricing is an anomaly.

If your business has consistent hiring needs, you can continue to hire off the shiftNOW platform once you’ve leveraged your free hires. Any additional hires made within the month will incur a fee based on the number of shifts the individual(s) completed. The hiring fees are as follows:

• <5 shifts completed: $1,000/hire
• 5 to 9 shifts completed: $750/hire
• 10 to 14 shifts completed: $500/hire
• 15+ shifts completed: FREE

Rein in your hiring costs and get better results.

Faster Hiring, Better Results

For any business, time is money but this rings especially true for the hospitality industry. The industry’s average time to hire is 14 days. That’s two weeks of earnings taking a hit while you sponsor jobs on job boards, sift through an unvetted pool of applicants, review resumes, and schedule interviews all in hopes of finding one qualified candidate. Can your business afford to operate at less than 100% for two weeks every time you need to hire?

Don’t schedule interviews, schedule shifts.

With shiftNOW, hospitality businesses fill shifts in just over one hour on average. Our platform eliminates the tedious interview process by connecting you with a network of candidates vetted for quality and experience. At shiftNOW, we know that the best way to hire a line cook or a dishwasher isn’t through a sit-down interview; it’s through seeing them put their skills to the test in a kitchen. Our platform serves as a means to trial-run workers on-site before making a long-term commitment. Think of it as a working interview. 

shiftNOW streamlines your hiring process, so you can focus on running a successful business.

Affordable Pricing with No Hidden Costs

Traditional job boards can cost hundreds of dollars per listing in addition to the hundreds–even thousands–of dollars in subscription fees. To make matters worse, there’s no guarantee of finding a candidate that’s right for the job.

For as little as $299 per month, shiftNOW’s Hired subscription is a cost-effective solution that provides unlimited access to our vetted talent pool of hospitality workers. When you post a shift on our platform, you’ll receive applicants with relevant experience who are available to work as soon as the same day. As applications come in, you’ll be able to view a worker’s:

• Overall Rating: Reflects how other businesses have rated their performance across all past shifts and shift types.
• Shift Type Rating: Reflects how other businesses have rated their performance across a specific shift type.
• Reliability Score: Reflects how reliable other businesses have found this worker.
• On-Time Streak: Reflects the number of consecutive shifts the worker has shown up on-time for.
• Open to Full-Time Badge: Indicates whether a worker is open to full-time opportunities or opportunities that could become full-time. 
• Profile Video: Every worker uploads a brief, 20-second video to introduce themselves and their relevant work experience.
• Work History: Provides an overview of all shiftNOW businesses the individual has worked shifts with, the shift type worked, and the rating the worker received.
• Resume: Provides an overview of any relevant work experience the individual has beyond the shiftNOW platform.

Job boards and other hiring platforms nickel and dime users for key functionalities that support more informed hiring decisions. At shiftNOW, we’re empowering businesses and workers with the necessary tools to make connections and fulfill each other's needs.

The Best Way to Hire Employees Through shiftNOW

While shiftNOW offers several benefits that combat cumbersome and expensive hiring processes, that doesn’t mean you need to leave everything you know about hiring in the past. Getting to know who you're hiring is still important.

Before hiring someone full-time off of the shiftNOW platform, we strongly encourage you to work with the individual for at least 15 shifts. Hospitality businesses have successfully used this benchmark to make more informed hiring decisions and understand a worker’s professionalism, punctuality, and work ethic.

As you review applicants, be sure to leverage all of the resources available to you within the shiftNOW platform. Review Work History, Ratings, Resume, Profile Video, and more to hire with confidence.
