Monica Vinader often saw periods of high sales volume throughout the year, where their staff levels needed to rapidly increase. For the upcoming Black Friday, Monica Vinader needed support to source, assess, and hire suitable flexible workers at their West London warehouse.
Finding such high volumes of reliable warehouse operatives at short notice puts strain on their internal teams. Additionally, they wanted to run assessment centres to interview the final candidates, before booking in their warehouse shifts.
Their main challenges were:

Assessing a high-volume of candidates’ suitability and onboarding them quickly.
