Retail Recruitment
Retail hiring is distributed by nature. Store managers screen their own applicants, quality drifts between locations, and head office finds out at the end. Hiup gives every store the same pipeline and gives you one view of all of them.
A 20-minute walkthrough using one of your own live roles.
Retail does not have one hiring problem, it has one per store. Each manager is recruiting locally, under their own trading pressure, with their own idea of a good candidate — so the standard varies, and nobody above them can see where. Then peak trading arrives and the whole network needs to hire at once, fast, for roles where the thing that matters most is how someone handles a customer. Which is precisely the thing a CV cannot show you.
Roles you can hire for
What makes it hard
And what in Hiup is pointed at each of them.
Fifteen managers screening their own applicants means fifteen standards, and no way to see which stores are hiring well.
The same AI screening and scoring runs behind every store, so the bar is identical and the reasoning is visible.
Christmas and back-to-school need a lot of people hired in a short window, on top of normal trading.
Automatic ranking turns volume hiring into reviewing a sorted shortlist instead of reading hundreds of CVs.
Most retail applicants have thin CVs. The difference between them is temperament, and that is invisible on paper.
Role-specific assessments and structured interviews surface how candidates actually respond, before you hire.
Head office sees vacancy numbers, not pipelines, so a store that is about to be short-staffed looks fine until it is not.
A live dashboard shows every store's funnel, conversion, and time-to-hire in one place.
How it works
The same connected workflow the rest of Hiup runs on, framed for how retail actually hires.
Create the role in plain language, publish it to the locations that need it, and keep a separate pipeline per store.
Applicants are scored and grouped by readiness automatically, so a strong candidate in a quiet store is not overlooked.
Assessments and structured interviews show how candidates handle customers and pressure, with scored results your managers can compare.
Offers and onboarding run per store, while the analytics dashboard gives area and head-office leads one funnel across all of them.

Questions
Yes, and that is the intended setup. Managers work their own store pipeline while screening, scoring, and reporting stay consistent and visible above them.
Yes. Roles are posted with the hours you actually need, and matching treats part-time, weekend, and seasonal roles the same as full-time ones.
Two ways. Ranking handles the volume so your managers review a shortlist, and the candidates you assessed last peak stay in your talent pool for the next one.
Hiup covers attraction through to offer and onboarding — posting, screening, assessment, interviews, and pipeline analytics. A demo is the fastest way to map it against what you already run.
Twenty minutes. We post a role you are actually trying to fill, and you watch the screening, the shortlist, and the pipeline happen with your own requirements rather than a demo dataset.
No commitment, and nothing to install before the call.
