hospitality taskforce staff for hire

With summer quickly approaching, vacation season is already gearing up. Many guests are planning to go bigger than ever this year, so your property may require some extra assistance. If you want to ensure that your team is prepared to handle the increase in demand, it may be helpful to hire temporary hospitality staff. When your goal is to save time and avoid the frustration of hiring someone only to find out that they’re not the right fit, consider working with an experienced Taskforce company. We’re here to streamline the process of finding the ideal candidates, but we need some information from you before we begin sourcing. Interested in working with us? Here’s an overview of what we need to know so we can give you the best experience possible: 

Helping You Find the Perfect Fit 

As a top-tier Taskforce company, our goal is to connect you with elite contractors who have an abundance of experience in the position you’re looking to fill. Although we have established relationships with many excellent candidates, the following information will help us find the best options for you to review. 

  • How soon do you need the contractor to start? 
  • Do you have an idea of how long you’ll need the temporary worker? 
  • Are you seeking coverage for an employee’s medical leave, maternity leave, etc. or are you just needing assistance while you find a permanent solution? 
  • What specific skill set does a contractor need in order to be successful in this position? 
  • If the candidate needs to supervise a team, how many people will be reporting to him/her? 
  • Does the ideal candidate need to have knowledge and experience in a specific type of technology or system? 
  • What do you expect to be the most challenging aspects of this job? 
  • What personality type do you believe will excel in this position? 
  • If hiring for a catering/sales position, how much meeting and/or function space does the property have? 
  • If hiring for a catering/sales position, what events and/or functions do you have booked for the next three months? 
  • Will the candidate need to fill a customer-facing position, or is the role more behind-the-scenes oriented? 

Hiring on a short-term basis is challenging, and especially so if you don’t have access to a pool of highly qualified candidates. If you’re hoping to take the stress out of hiring independent contractors for the busiest season of the year, our team is here to help. Since 2003, we’ve assisted property managers in finding only the best temporary hospitality staff. Our contractors have a minimum of 10 years of experience in their field and are experts at navigating the fast-paced nature of temporary positions. Many of our clients have grown to love the experience of working with short-term managers, and we’re looking forward to helping your property benefit from the expertise and peace of mind that temporary staff bring. When you’re ready to begin the process, please contact our team or submit a request for proposal online.
