How MOOYAH beats their competitors when finding talent

MOOYAH, a popular burger, fries, and shakes chain, faced hiring challenges due to time-consuming processes and an over-reliance on physical documents. With over 100 locations globally, they needed a more efficient hiring solution. By implementing Workstream, MOOYAH achieved a 20% hiring rate, reduced applicant screening time, and streamlined their hiring process, allowing them to focus on proactive recruitment and fully staffed stores across America.

The problem

Manual processes and physical paperwork slows down hiring

About MOOYAH

MOOYAH, founded in 2007 in Texas, quickly gained fame for its customizable burgers and hand-cut fries. The brand's commitment to quality ingredients and a personalized dining experience led to nationwide expansion. MOOYAH's legacy is rooted in its innovative approach to the classic burger joint, fostering a loyal customer base.

While MOOYAH might be known for its innovative menu items, its hiring strategy was stuck in the past. Each step of their process was manual and tedious, including its reliance on physical paperwork for all documentation. Hiring managers were manually sifting through resumes, scheduling interviews, and even sending out and collecting onboarding documents. Instead of focusing on revenue-generating activities and taking their business to the next level, managers were bogged down in operational hiring tasks. Even worse, a slower higher process meant MOOYAH was losing potential employees to the competition.

Due to their manual hiring processes, a lot of time and effort was spent on hiring efforts. Hiring managers had to oversee the scheduling of interviews, the actual interviews, and eventually onboarding. This deterred them from focusing on revenue-generating activities and taking their business to the next level. Furthermore, considering the sheer number of staff required for operations, there was a need to sieve through many candidates, which took up a greater amount of time.

The Solution

Faster hiring means getting first dibs on talent

MOOYAH knew it had to modernize its hiring processes to give hiring managers back their time and get applicants to their first day faster. The MOOYAH team turned to Workstream's HR, Payroll, and Hiring platform to help it digitize hiring and reach its goal of 100% fully staffed stores across the country. The features they rely on are:

MOOYAH hiring managers no longer have to manually sift through applications. Workstream's smart screening technology filters out unqualified applicants automatically so hiring managers only see candidates who are a good fit for their open positions.

Automated self-scheduling enables applicants to schedule their own interviews via text based on MOOYAH's hiring managers' availability, saving both parties time in tedious back and forth.

Text-to-Apply

Working in conjunction with automatic scheduling is the text-to-apply feature, which allows candidates to apply for a job by scanning a QR code. By making it convenient for candidates to apply, MOOYAH is able to secure a greater number of applicants.
