Hospitality Success Story
The Great Dane Pub & Brewing Co.
Transforming multi-location hiring with a single, modern engine.
Wisconsin’s first brewery and pub grew to multiple locations but hiring stayed fragmented. Seen unified sourcing, screening, scheduling, and reporting so ownership had clarity and managers got their time back.

THE CHALLENGE
Each location ran its own process—ownership had little visibility and managers lost hours each week.
Outdated systems: some sites relied on job boards, others on paper applications—no consistency, no shared playbook.
Limited visibility: leadership couldn’t see which roles were stuck, which channels worked, or who was moving candidates forward.
Manual work: managers screened unqualified applicants and juggled interviews by hand while service still had to run.
High spend: multiple paid job boards averaged more than $2,000 a month per location with little to show.
THE SOLUTION
A single, mobile-friendly hiring engine that every location could rely on.
Unified sourcing across career pages, QR codes, social, and boards so every role flowed into one pipeline.
AI-driven screening with deal-breaker questions surfaced qualified applicants instantly and cut the noise.
Automated interview scheduling and SMS/email comms kept candidates engaged and reduced no-shows.
Real-time reporting gave ownership clarity on funnel health, team activity, and channel performance.
THE IMPACT
A consistent hiring rhythm across locations with measurable savings and stability.
Time-to-hire reduced by 10x—roles filled in four days instead of the 30–45 day norm.
Over $2,000 per month per location saved by eliminating paid job boards and wasted ad spend.
85% increase in retention from better-fit hires and tighter screening.
Managers reclaimed roughly 10 hours each week to focus on operations, training, and guests.
