Use First: a free-to-post restaurant job board
Hey Chef,
Did that new garde-mangerian just rage quit at 4:45 on Friday night right before service? Usefirst.com can have you hiring again with a flip of a switch, right from your phone. That’s right… you don’t even have to leave the pass and you’re already actively recruiting again before the first turn heats up. Focus on the food and leave finding qualified candidates to us.
Built by an actual chef, the app was designed with our industry’s unique needs in mind. It is, and will always be, free to use making it unique within the space. You can direct candidates to apply to your restaurant group’s existing jobs portal, or have them simply email you or someone on your team to set up a trail. We even offer a free-to-use, plug-and-play widget to display your current job openings on your restaurant’s website.
Stop paying to post jobs. Stop working with non-industry-specific recruiting outlets that are more interested in harvesting your data than helping you find cooks, porters, and runners. Make us your use-first option for hiring.
