Field workers

A hazardous materials abatement and demolition company needed a plan to grow their team properly. Given the nature of their work and the size of their operations the traditional hiring process was not working. The time required to review resumes, conduct interviews and onboard new employees into a probationary period was becoming counterproductive. Why? Because the type of worker they were attracting was not interested in a long-term commitment. The company needed a new way to hire that didn't waste their time and helped them find the right people. Using OndeWork, they posted several 1-5 day jobs over the course of a few months and tried out several workers. They ended up trying two workers that had the right attitude and were a good fit for the culture. Over a two-year period of time they were able to upskill the workers and move them into site supervisor positions quickly with one of the workers advancing into a junior project manager position.

Running behind

A commercial roofing company was struggling to meet deadlines due to a shortage of labor, which was causing them to fall behind on multiple projects. Their team was stretched thin, and the cost of hiring through temp agencies was high and using traditional job posting websites was proving inefficient. With OndeWork, they quickly filled labor gaps by trying out workers for 1-5 day jobs which helped them complete their projects and provided them with capacity to take on new projects. OndeWork's "try now hire later" model allowed them to complete backlogged work while evaluating people that could give them the confidence to take on additional work. Within months they had created pool of reliable workers, many of which were added to payroll, that they could call on for future projects, ultimately increasing their capacity and allowing them to take on more work than before.

Impossible
becomes
what's possible?

A small excavation company wanted to expand but couldn't see how to do so with limited access to skilled workers. They had tried traditional hiring methods but found that the process was slow and costly, with high turnover rates. After using OndeWork, they realized they could try out several workers over short-term 1-5 day jobs, allowing them to identify those with the skills and attitude that fit their business and who could be trained and upskilled. Over time, they found a few key hires that they invested in which gave them the confidence to scale operations, leading to a significant increase in revenue and new contracts. Finding skilled workers had been a challenge that OndeWork was able to help them solve by helping then evaluating workers who had the right attitude and aptitude and who could be trained. Instead of wasting time and money on the wrong hires, they were able to find the right people that enable them to grow their business.
