Case study: Chartwells (Compass)

“Upshift is my primary staffing partner because I have more control on the platform”

Jason Ritter, Director of Catering,
Chartwells (Compass Group)

Challenges faced by Jason, a Director of Catering at Chartwells (Compass Group), included managing a predominantly international student staff with limited and varying schedules.

Traditional staffing agencies posed additional hurdles with their outdated operations, making it difficult for Jason to track and communicate effectively, especially outside regular business hours.

To address these challenges, Upshift introduced a team of flexible and returning "temps" that have become an integral part of Jason's staff. Jason emphasized the importance of having engaged and trained Upshifters who feel like their own staff. The functionality to favorite the best workers ensures easy engagement and retention, allowing Jason to build a reliable pool of workers who keep returning. 

What sets Upshift apart, according to Jason, is the high-caliber workers provided through our rigorous screening process and in-person meetings before hiring. The workers' ability to choose their own shifts, get rated, and feel accountable to perform ensures that Jason's shifts are filled with individuals who genuinely want to be there. The quick support from Upshift's account managers has further facilitated Jason's experience, offering instant responses and guidance when needed.

Jason's exceptional approach to retaining contract labor has resulted in an impressive 85% return rate, indicating exceptional engagement and satisfaction among workers.

Michigan Staffing
Agency FAQs

Still unsure? Find answers here
Regular recruitment from staffing agencies doesn't ensure responsibility because recruiters don't want to fire anyone and miss out on future money.

As a leading staffing agency alternative, our goal is to hire great qualified candidates and keep them that way by setting high standards for them.

How Does It Work?
With our 3-strike rule and review system, our job seekers know they have to perform well.

These job seekers get a strike for canceling shifts, being late, or other small issues.

A serious issue like not showing up at all leads to 3 strikes.

Getting 3 strikes means job seekers can't use Upshift anymore.

Upshifters feel responsible - they take our rules seriously, as they don't want to lose their access to the platform permanently.
Upshift stands out from temp staffing agencies because we carefully select our qualified candidates.

We have a rigorous process to ensure we hire only the best job seekers.

As a leading staffing agency alternative, each applicant undergoes a two-part vetting process, including an online personality assessment and a face-to-face interview.

Just 12% of candidates are qualified.

With our top-notch qualified candidates, you can count on less downtime, increased productivity, and more accurate staffing planning for the future, all resulting in lower labor costs.
We have over 150,000 qualified candidates available to choose from. This makes finding and recruiting professionals much easier than when using traditional staffing agencies.
