Frontline employees are the unsung heroes of any business because they deal with customers daily. In stores, they’re the friendly faces you see, the helpful person on the customer service line, and the hardworking healthcare workers who care for you with kindness.  Companies frequently recruit frontline employees in sizable numbers within short timeframes, facing numerous challenges in the recruitment process. These challenges arise from various factors, including a high turnover rate, seasonal demands, or sudden expansions. This rapid hiring pace often leads to issues such as a flood of applications, making it cumbersome for HR teams to screen candidates efficiently. To mitigate these problems, companies must streamline their hiring process. Implementing strategies like pre-screening assessments, automated application systems, and referral recruitment can significantly reduce the time to sift through applications.

This article explores how companies can use CloudApper alongside UKG pro talent to simplify their frontline recruitment process and build an enticing workplace environment that attracts top talent.

Challenges in Frontline Employee Recruitment 

Companies often struggle to recruit frontline employees due to various factors, including the complexity and lengthiness of the application process. Lengthy application forms and processes can discourage potential candidates from completing their applications, leading to dropouts. Cumbersome and time-consuming application procedures create a barrier for prospective employees, causing frustration and a sense of disengagement early in the hiring process. This contributes significantly to a higher dropout rate as candidates seek more streamlined and user-friendly experiences. The failure to provide a straightforward and efficient application process not only deters potential talent but also reflects a lack of consideration for candidates’ time and convenience, impacting the overall ability of companies to attract and retain frontline workers.
