Hey there, Restauranteurs and Hospitality Peeps,
Ever tried hiring staff for your restaurant during the holiday rush? It’s like trying to find a needle in a haystack while wearing sunglasses at night. Confusing, right? But 2023 isn’t your average year, and I’ve got the inside scoop to make you the hiring MVP! 🏆
1. The Rise of the Virtual Interview:
Let’s be real. The COVID-19 era turned our world upside down, like that time I tried to make a smoothie without the blender lid on. (Don’t ask!) But amidst all that chaos, virtual interviews emerged as the superhero we didn’t know we needed. Not only do they save time and reduce the awkward pre-interview small talk, but they also let you interview in your favorite pajamas. Win-win!
Why they’re still hot in 2023:
- Time Savings: Say goodbye to logistical nightmares and hello to a streamlined process.
- Faster Hiring: Speed is the name of the game. No more waiting for candidates to commute or find your hidden office behind the potted plant.
- Safety First: We’re all hopeful about the future, but safety remains a priority. And hey, virtual interviews mean zero chances of someone spilling coffee on your desk.
2. It’s Not You; It’s Me… Actually, It’s All About the Candidates:
2023 is all about flipping the script! Candidates are re-evaluating what they want, and if you’re not showing off your restaurant’s charm, you’re missing out. Make your restaurant the cool kid everyone wants to hang out with!
Tips to lure the best:
- Flexibility: Maybe it’s a choice of hours or just understanding life happens. Flexibility is the new 401k.
- Compelling Job Descriptions: Be the storyteller. Create a narrative that makes candidates think, “I HAVE to work here!”
- Brand Personality: Your restaurant isn’t just another brick in the wall. Share the fun, quirks, and what makes you unique. Got a chef who sings opera while cooking? That’s pure gold!
3. The Digital Boom – No, It’s Not a New Dance Move:
Digital recruitment is like that catchy song you can’t get out of your head. It’s everywhere! And if you’re not on this train, you’re waiting at the wrong station.
Digital tricks up the 2023 sleeve:
- Your Website is Your Stage: Jazz it up, make it pop, and let it sing your brand’s story.
- Job Boards & Search Engines: Think of them as your digital matchmakers. Swipe right to the best candidates.
- Social Media: Be where the party’s at! Instagram, Twitter, TikTok – if it’s buzzing, you should be there.
So, what’s the big wrap-up (besides that leftover burrito from lunch)?
