挑战
Speed is crucial in high-volume recruiting, especially in the fast-food industry where competition is fierce. The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated staffing challenges, making it essential for restaurants to quickly and efficiently hire staff. Managers faced issues such as candidates not showing up for interviews and the time-consuming process of scheduling and coordinating with applicants. The need for a streamlined hiring process became more urgent as managers struggled to keep their restaurants fully staffed amidst the pandemic.
关于客户
Pertoria Inc., HAZA Foods, and Group W AKSAN are Wendy’s franchisees operating in different regions of the United States. Pertoria Inc. manages six Wendy’s locations in Northwest Ohio, HAZA Foods operates 250 Wendy’s locations across Texas, Louisiana, and Minnesota, and Group W AKSAN runs 26 Wendy’s restaurants in Washington and Oregon. These franchisees face the common challenge of high turnover and the need for a fast and efficient hiring process to keep their restaurants fully staffed. They have turned to an AI Assistant named Lou to help streamline their hiring processes and reduce the burden on their managers.
解决方案
The AI Assistant Lou has been implemented across various Wendy’s franchisees to streamline the hiring process. Lou allows managers to hire over text, automatically screen and schedule qualified candidates for interviews, and remind candidates of upcoming interviews. This automation reduces the time managers spend coordinating with candidates and ensures a faster response time, which is crucial in the competitive fast-food hiring landscape. Lou also helps reduce interview no-shows and cancellations by providing real-time communication and reminders to candidates. The implementation of Lou has significantly improved the efficiency of the hiring process, allowing managers to focus on other operational tasks.

HEINEKEN Uses the Cloud to Reach 10.5 Million Consumers
For 2012 campaign, the Bond promotion, it planned to launch the campaign at the same time everywhere on the planet. That created unprecedented challenges for HEINEKEN—nowhere more so than in its technology operation. The primary digital content for the campaign was a 100-megabyte movie that had to play flawlessly for millions of viewers worldwide. After all, Bond never fails. No one was going to tolerate a technology failure that might bruise his brand.Previously, HEINEKEN had supported digital media at its outsourced datacenter. But that datacenter lacked the computing resources HEINEKEN needed, and building them—especially to support peak traffic that would total millions of simultaneous hits—would have been both time-consuming and expensive. Nor would it have provided the geographic reach that HEINEKEN needed to minimize latency worldwide.
