Pub groups
How do pub groups hire well at scale?
When applying takes minutes on a phone, every application is seen the day it arrives, and each pub knows which channels bring the people who stay.
Where pub group hiring goes wrong
Most hiring is lost before a general manager sees a single application.
A bartender or kitchen porter finds your role on their phone, meets a long form, and leaves. Across dozens or hundreds of pubs, that drop-off adds up fast.
The applications that do arrive land across many sites at once. General managers are running a shift, not a recruitment desk, so good candidates wait and take the job down the road.
And each general manager has no clear view of their own hiring. They cannot see which job boards bring applicants to their pub, or which of those applicants turn into hires.

How inploi approaches it
For candidates: Candidate Experience
Careers sites show every role your group is hiring for, with an accessibility widget built in. Conversational apply lets people apply in minutes on their phone, without a long form.
The Candidate Agent handles candidate admin so applicants are not left waiting. Job distribution puts your roles on the channels your candidates use.
See how conversational apply worksFor your teams: Recruiter Experience
The Hiring Agent works through every application as it arrives and ranks it for the general manager. It ranks and never rejects: the decision stays with a person.
Analytics and attribution show which channels bring applications and hires, so spend goes where it works.
ATS sync keeps everything on the ATS you already have. Your teams keep the system they know.

The options you might be weighing
When hiring volume outgrows the team, most groups weigh the same choices: do nothing, hire more recruiters, or hand it to an RPO. inploi is another option: agents handle the admin, and your general managers keep the hiring decisions.
