Today we’d like to introduce you to Jeremy Phillips.
Hi Jeremy, so excited to have you with us today. What can you tell us about your story?
My co-founder, Billy Giordano, and I have known each other for 25 years and started working together in the hospitality industry 20+ years ago. We managed multiple locations respectively, until opening Room 38 Restaurant & Lounge in 2008. We’ve both gone on to open and manage multiple businesses since, but StaffedUp was created out of a need for a better way to hire in our industry in 2016. The company was founded to make hiring processes easier for restaurant owners and managers while focussing on ease of use for the applicant and employer. Our goal has always been to provide a service that our customers appreciate and enjoy using that’s affordable and helps people like ourselves run better operations. We still use StaffedUp to run our businesses to this day and will continue to improve our systems to make hiring the easiest part of running your business. We’re sincere when we say we appreciate the opportunity to help every one of our customers. We’re tirelessly dedicated to their success just as much as we are ours.
Would it have been a smooth road, and if not, what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
Haha, it has been anything but a smooth road for us, but Billy and I have stayed consistently dedicated to the project and our vision and have been able to navigate some challenging times and come out on the other side. One major challenge we faced was Covid. Like almost everyone, things for us, as well as our customers, changed seemingly overnight. Restaurants were trying to figure out how to stay alive rather than hire people. We had to put everything on pause completely and help however we could. We wanted to ensure we were relieving stress instead of adding to it.
Great, so let’s talk business. Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
One thing to know is that this is software built by industry people for industry people. We don’t have a technical background; we have a hospitality background, and they built this for us. Billy truly uses the software in our restaurant today! StaffedUp is an applicant tracking system that allows you to stay proactive in hiring instead of reactive. It’s a tool that keeps everything you do in hiring organized and helps you hire better people more efficiently and effectively. Instead of flipping through resumes or your email inbox, ATS software streamlines your hiring processes. Long story short, it makes your life and business better.
One thing that I am most proud of is the continued desire to get better and improve for our customers. We have not gotten complacent, and we have not given up. We strive to offer the best product we can at a very fair price. The people we work with mean something to us, and so does their success. We do all we can to offer them a first-class experience. The software manages the entire hiring lifecycle, including automatically posting to job boards (Google Jobs, Indeed, etc.), screening applicants, scheduling interviews, and onboarding new hires. Imagine all your job posts managed in one place, with drastically increased application flow and a massive reduction in hiring time. You can manage everything within our ATS software from any device and handle recruiting anytime, anywhere.
Let’s end by discussing what matters most to you and why.
We are delivering for our customers and continuing to keep our software intelligently simplistic. If implemented and used correctly, I know the software’s capabilities and how much time, money, and stress it can save. So, continuing to evolve the software while keeping it user-friendly is always on my mind.
