RECRUITMENT
Instances When you may Need Us to Streamline Your Hiring Process Include:
- Seasonality: When talent needs vary seasonally and companies need robust leadership year-round.
- Implementing New Processes: When companies are going through a new opening, technology roll-out, or exploring new product lines.
- Skill Gap: When companies have a short-term issue or project that requires specialized knowledge.
- Maternity/ Paternity Leave: When permanent leadership takes a leave of absence (medical, parental, or otherwise) but projects still need to move forward.
- Expansion or Growth: When a company is experiencing significant growth, requiring extra guidance to strategically move forward.
- Turn around an under-performing venture: High labor costs, frequent staff turnover and rising Cost of goods sold squeeze margins as shifting consumer trends make staying relevant a constant challenge.

Here’s the secret to profitable restaurant operations:
Always remember that for your clients choosing a restaurant is like choosing a vacation spot. The restaurant and lounge is a place to get away from everyday life, to relax with family and friends, to enjoy your surroundings, to be active, or to grab a delicious meal. It’s more important than ever to help current and prospective customers see your restaurant as their happy place, and that it is profitable.
