Open a job in the morning, extra hands by the afternoon

Online orders are hard to predict, and when the company tries to find extra people itself, it rarely finds them in time because most people already have work lined up. Now the warehouse team opens a job in the app in the morning and has people helping by the afternoon.

Extra hands when orders surge

When warehouse orders surged beyond what the existing team could handle, the company needed extra people urgently. Daywork helps bring in extra staff in time for the shift.

A steady flow of extra staff

It solved our problem of not finding part-time staff in time, and people keep joining to support the team. We feel confident we'll always have enough staff.

Staff even at short notice

Thank you for always finding us good part-time staff. Even at urgent times, or when we need people with specific skills, you can send staff right away…

Staff pick shifts they can work from the start

The company's tea shop finds the system cuts last-minute absences to some extent, because staff confirm each shift through the system and choose hours they can really work from the start.

Help finding someone new after a last-minute cancellation

The company's restaurant values how quickly the Daywork team replies. When someone cancels at short notice in the morning, the team steps in to help find a replacement.

Sudden resignations, gaps filled in time

When staff quit suddenly, the company's usual recruitment process takes time. Daywork fills those positions in time, and the company says the people sent are good.

Good people, almost no rejections

The company's main problem was permanent staff cancelling at short notice, sometimes the day before they were due to start. Daywork finds replacements quickly, and the people are good enough that the company almost never has to turn anyone away.

New branches and events, handed over to Daywork

While expanding fast, with several new branches opening at once and events to run, the company hands recruiting over to Daywork. Its own team only reviews the people sent, which takes a big load off.

Big events, run like a partnership

Most of the company's work is big events that need many people who can really do the job. It says working with Daywork feels like a partnership rather than just hiring a contractor.

Staffing that flexes with demand

What we like most is how flexible the staffing is. At times we need a lot of people, at other times only a few, and the service adjusts and brings in extra staff to match…

Most staff live nearby and arrive on time

…Most of the staff who work with us live near the workplace, arrive on time and are committed to their work… It has taken a lot of work off our HR department.

Always staffed, with people who behave well

When we first started, we weren't sure we'd really find people. But since we had Daywork post our jobs, we've always had staff, and the people they recommend behave well. Choosing this service was the right call.

Committed staff who work well

The staff they recommend are committed and work well, which shows they've been screened carefully. We feel reassured and happy with the quality we get.

Mostly local staff who start on time

At first we weren't sure how the system worked, but once we started working together we really liked it. We always get good people, and most seem to be picked from near our workplace, so everyone arrives on time.

See résumés and availability before reaching out

The company runs drink and dessert shops across several branches. It likes posting a job for free first to see how much interest each branch gets, and checking résumés and applicants' available hours before deciding whom to contact.

Candidates ready for late-night shifts

Many of the group's restaurants close at midnight or stay open through the night, so late-night roles are hard to fill. The company's recruitment team uses Daywork to find candidates ready for late-night shifts, closing that gap.

Full-time hires from job posts

The company's dessert shop mainly uses Daywork job posts to hire full-time staff, and the people working there now came through Daywork. It says the system is easy to use and chatting with applicants is convenient.

Straight answers that make planning easy

In sudden emergencies, the Daywork team gives good support and is upfront about the status: whether they've found people, are still looking or can't find anyone. That makes it easy for the company to plan ahead.

A quick, helpful team and smooth coordination

The team is helpful and answers questions quickly, so coordination runs smoothly with no hiccups. It's been a really good experience.

Much less recruiting work for HR

Using this service has made our HR team's work much easier. It has taken a lot of part-time recruiting off our plate, and our overall efficiency has clearly improved.
