Creating a Standout Employer Profile on StaffedUp

Why Your Employer Profile Matters

In the hospitality industry, where competition for top talent is fierce, your employer profile can make or break your ability to attract quality candidates. Job seekers today aren’t just looking for a paycheck—they want a workplace that aligns with their values, career goals, and lifestyle.

An optimized employer profile on StaffedUp helps you stand out, showcase your company culture, and draw in applicants who are the right fit. Here’s how to build a profile that works for you.

1. Showcase Your Company’s Personality

Your employer profile is often a candidate’s first impression of your business. Make it count by highlighting your company culture, values, and what makes your workplace unique.

  • Use high-quality images or videos of your team in action.
  • Share your mission and what sets your business apart from others in the industry.
  • Write a compelling company description that feels authentic and engaging.

According to Harvard Business Review, businesses with strong employer branding receive 50% more qualified applicants.

2. Optimize Your Job Listings

Your employer profile and job postings should work together to create a seamless hiring experience. Here’s how to make your listings more appealing:

  • Be specific about roles, responsibilities, and expectations.
  • Highlight benefits like flexible scheduling, employee discounts, or growth opportunities.
  • Use keywords that job seekers search for, such as “hospitality careers,” “restaurant jobs,” and “front-of-house positions.”

A report from SHRM (Society for Human Resource Management) found that clear, detailed job descriptions reduce turnover by setting accurate expectations.

3. Keep Your Profile Updated

An outdated employer profile can make your business seem inactive or unorganized. Regularly update your profile with:

  • New job postings
  • Employee testimonials
  • Recent company achievements
  • Upcoming events or hiring fairs

By keeping your profile fresh, you show candidates that your business is active, engaged, and a great place to work.

4. Engage with Applicants

The hiring process shouldn’t feel one-sided. Hospitality job seekers appreciate responsiveness and communication. Set yourself apart by:

  • Responding to applications in a timely manner.
  • Using StaffedUp’s messaging tools to engage candidates.
  • Following up with top applicants even if they don’t get the job—this builds a talent pipeline for future openings.

  • What is the WOTC (Work Opportunity Tax Credit)?

    WOTC (Work Opportunity Tax Credit) is a federal tax credit available to business employers, both large and small. The credits are designed to offset Federal income tax liabilities. When the WOTC program is executed the right way, employers can capture enough tax credits to significantly reduce, or even eliminate, their Federal income tax liabilities. (And if your business was formed using a flow-through-entity, like a S-corp or LLC, then the credits could flow-through to the owner’s K-1).

  • How can WOTC impact my business?

    Executing the WOTC program is simple and easy with the right provider. We’ll screen your applicants to determine if they satisfy one of nine qualifying criteria. If so, our team of tax credit experts work with specific government agencies, behind the scenes, to capture the tax credits for you. Once captured, tax credits can be used to eliminate Federal income tax liabilities and thus improve cash flow for stakeholders and the business.
