Connects businesses with vetted hourly workers

About

Instawork connects businesses with over 5 million vetted short-term, seasonal, and temp-to-hire workers through its online platform. This platform addresses the challenges businesses face in finding hourly workers, which traditional staffing agencies often struggle with. Instawork's intelligent matching system efficiently pairs businesses with suitable workers from its extensive database, ensuring that only reliable candidates are presented. The company has a rigorous vetting process that contributes to a high demand for its workers, with 93% of businesses wanting to rehire them and a low 2% no-show rate. Businesses can view worker profiles and experience before they start a shift, and those looking for full-time employees can also search and hire from Instawork's database. The company generates revenue by charging businesses for its staffing services, and its importance grew during the pandemic, reinforcing its market position.
