Wendy’s Franchisee Automates To Gain Competitive Hiring Advantage

Benzinga:

A new survey of the Business Roundtable , an association of CEOs of corporations representing a combined workforce of more than 13 million employees, projects an increase in hiring is ahead. 52 percent of CEOs said they will add to payrolls, up from 45 percent in the fourth quarter and the largest share on record. This is good news for unemployed workers, but for hiring managers, like Scott McGarvey, SPHR, the HR Director of Wendy’s franchisee Sinkula Investments, it means more competition for applicants and more hiring tasks.

Or it did. That was before Bloomfield Hills, Michigan-based JobApp Network, Inc. rolled out its automated hiring solution to all of the company’s restaurants. The system takes applicants from the first step of applying for a job to paperless onboarding for the employer. It also includes psychometric assessments, background checks and government compliance management. Staffing is a lot easier with the JobApp solution, McGarvey said. “This business is about people. You need good people and a constant pipeline of qualified, pre-screened applicants.”
