It’s no secret that many bars and restaurants are struggling to hire and retain great staff.
And while I’d always heard of ‘recruitment experts’ in the corporate world, I never considered how they could help the hospitality industry.
Until the pandemic.
Staff in bars and restaurants used to just come and go with ease.
But like many things, the pandemic accelerated practices that needed to change anyway.
- A single Craigslist ad isn’t enough to get great staff.
- Minimum wage + tips isn’t enough to keep great staff.
So I went out and found Matt Alder — an expert in HR and recruitment marketing.
