Problem

A fast-growing meal prep and food production company operates with a high-volume, high-churn workforce need. Like many companies in food processing, the challenge isn't just finding available workers. It's knowing quickly whether someone is the right fit before investing in long-term onboarding.

Traditional approaches forced them to commit resources to workers before they had enough real-world signal to make that call. The result: time lost, production disrupted, and no reliable way to continuously evaluate new candidates at scale.

They needed a faster way to test workers in a live production environment and a platform that could keep pace with the constant cycle of evaluating, retaining, and releasing.

Solution

The company partnered with Spotwork to build a continuous talent evaluation cycle directly through the marketplace. Rather than using Spotwork as a traditional worker pool, they built a deliberate process.

Post jobs consistently to access new Spotters from the marketplace each week. Use Reliable Spotter Metrics to review marketplace activity signals before confirming bookings. Evaluate Spotters over 2 to 3 jobs to determine long-term fit. Release workers who aren't the right match and seamlessly book new ones. Convert high-performers into a longer-term, temp-to-perm relationship.

Spotwork's SpotSource outreach gave them access to a continuous pipeline of available Spotters across the Las Vegas market without the overhead of agency relationships or long-term commitments. Spot365 platform support meant that when jobs were live, there was always someone available to help.

Results

  • 95.3%+ fill rate across active jobs on the platform
