Qwick has been an invaluable partner, providing excellent staffing coverage for our Independent Living Communities nationwide. Using Qwick is not only cost-effective compared to traditional temp agencies but also offers the flexibility to hire without a buyout fee, similar to a 'try before you buy' approach.

In our experience working with temporary labor companies (15+ yrs), Qwick has been by far the best overall. The quality of professionals is far superior.

I was even able to hire a few professionals to join our team full-time. Qwick solved a staffing crisis for me in one week, and now I no longer need to post for emergency shifts.

Powering decentralized staffing in the Bay Area.
When Adam Jed approached Qwick about helping his upscale new American eatery and market, Bluestem, the assumption was that the restaurant needed what most of Qwick’s restaurant partners need: staff in a pinch.
In reality, Adam was looking for a different kind of partnership. Like in many major urban centers, the pandemic ravaged San Francisco’s dining scene. Diners were hesitant to eat out which left many hospitality workers out of jobs. In the wake of the rebound, Adam saw an opportunity to offer an antidote via Bluestem. Instead of hiring full time workers, he decided to build a decentralized staffing model, which would rely on many part time workers, offering more individuals a chance to get back on their feet while allowing Bluestem to operate more nimbly to meet market demands.
Qwick is proud to play an instrumental role in making this staffing program flow by connecting Bluestem to 30+ freelancers each month.
