Award Staffing Delivers Real-Time Recruiting Via TempBuddy Workforce Management Platform and App

TempBuddy brings speed and accuracy to job order distribution, worker application and timecards for first US client, Award Staffing

Award Staffing, light industrial, clerical, hospitality, technical and scientific staffing specialists based in Minneapolis, USA, has selected TempBuddy’s multi-award winning workforce management platform and worker app to drive efficiency in their business, becoming the first US based business to offer recruitment services empowered by  the software.

Award Staffing were looking for a solution to streamline the time-consuming manual tasks of managing a high volume of job assignments across the hospitality and professional side of their business, including the distribution of job orders, candidate applications and paper timecards.

Using the management platform, Award Staffing will be able to instantly share job details with their workers through the TempBuddy app at the click of a button, and workers can notify Award Staffing of their interest and availability, enabling Award Staffing to quickly progress hires, improving their speed-to-fill. The mobile check-in and check-out functionality of the worker app eradicates the need for employers and employees to complete, scan and send paper timecards.

Award Staffing had been reviewing software solutions for some time and made the decision to partner with TempBuddy after Vice President of Strategic Solutions Jerome Gerber, attended the Staffing Industry Analysts (SIA) Executive Forum North America event.

Meeting TempBuddy and seeing their workforce management platform and worker app in action, Gerber was excited to find the technology exceeded their vision, enabling them to deploy their best rated workers, manage shift patterns and eradicate paper timecards.

Nicole Berg, Marketing & Technology Manager, Award Staffing, said: “Before we implemented TempBuddy we had to call every single one of our employees to find out if they were interested in a new job opening, and, throughout assignments we were dealing with lots of paper timecards.  Now, with TempBuddy, extensive manual work is replaced with the click of a button, freeing consultants for business development and candidate engagement activities.  Our clients are impressed because they receive information faster and can see everything in real-time; our employees like it because they can easily apply for job openings; and we like it because it’s clearly improving processes and efficiency.  We love being ahead of the curve on technology and it’s great to offer an enhanced candidate and client experience thanks to TempBuddy’s innovation.”

Roderick Smyth, CEO, TempBuddy, added: “Award Staffing has a fantastic reputation due to the reliable staffing services they have been delivering across the Twin Cities for over three decades, not to mention how they take the lead when it comes to adopting and embracing technology. So we’re delighted they’re our first client to go live in the United States.  We look forward to supporting their continued growth.”

As the first TempBuddy client to go live in the USA, Award Staffing are uniquely positioned to offer their clients and workers staffing services underpinned by technology that is already revolutionizing the recruitment industry across Ireland, UK and other countries throughout Europe.

Following their early adoption of TempBuddy for hospitality and professional staffing, Award Staffing soon plan to implement the technology across their commercial and industrial sectors.

Founded in 1988, Award Staffing is one of the largest locally-owned staffing companies in Minneapolis and Saint Paul, USA.  Delivering services through two specialized companies, Award Commercial Services (ACS) and Award Professional Services (APS), they operate from six office locations across the Twin Cities metro area.  Proud members of the American Staffing Association (ASA), Minnesota Recruiting & Staffing Association (MNRSA) and TempNet, Award Staffing helps their clients hire qualified employees, improve recruitment processes and increase efficiency through their unparalleled employee database and service levels built upon nearly thirty years of experience.
