ShiftPixy, a Miami-based disruptive worker engagement and management platform, has announced the launch of its game-changing “Instant Interview” feature, resolving a major roadblock to getting workers hired, according to an official statement.
This innovative technology allows gig workers to record a short video interview on their phone by answering a few quick questions. The shift manager then sees the gig worker’s profile and video and says “yes” to the worker, who then moves through an AI-driven, very personal experience to start their shift.
ShiftPixy’s Instant Interview feature optimizes the hiring process, allowing employers to find and hire the right candidates for their needs quickly. The technology has proven effective for swiftly moving quality workers to fill open shifts, providing a better, faster, and safer solution for part-time hourly shift work.
Speaking about the initiative, Co-founder & CEO of ShiftPixy, Scott Absher, said:
Instant Interview is a feature that we are really excited to bring to market. We have been working to automate the traditional friction points that slow a worker’s move from interest in the job to showing up for work. Getting an interested candidate in front of the hiring manager quickly eliminates process drift and gives the candidate an immediate indication of interest.
Absher added:
We have been trying to help our clients who rely on hourly workers to think of this process of getting people on the job like speed dating. This innovative method for screening and clearing a candidate to start a new gig is a game-changer for entry-level positions in the staffing industry.
With the company’s Instant Interview feature, employers can meet their needs where they are. This innovative technology is a key example of how ShiftPixy is leading the way in the on-demand staffing industry, providing effective, efficient solutions that meet the needs of today’s workforce.
ShiftPixy combines the modern perks of the gig economy with traditional employment benefits. The app is an all-in-one workforce management platform for operators (business owners) relying on contingent employees. But it’s also a dynamic employment resource for shifters (part-time workers) who want the freedom to make their schedules. Shift Workers can receive valuable health insurance and workers’ compensation benefits. Meanwhile, operators can rest easy knowing they remain compliant with labour laws and free of time-consuming administrative tasks.
