From Holiday Fill-Ins to Full-Timers: How To Fill Your Hiring Funnel

You needed someone to cover a shift for the holidays. What you got was a future hire. 

That’s the beauty of Stunio. It’s not just a platform to book reliable fill-ins—it’s your built-in talent funnel. The students who show up for a few shifts today could be your part-time anchors, interns, or even full-time team members tomorrow. If you’re tired of wasting time on job boards, endless interviews, and flaky temp agencies, it’s time to try something faster, fairer, and more flexible.

Here’s how to turn your next shift into your next great hire.

Watch How They Work—Not Just What’s on Paper

With Stunio, you skip the résumés and see real behavior in action. You get to watch students on the job, handling pressure, communicating with your team, problem-solving in real time, and proving reliability where it counts.

Forget interviews that tell you who someone might be. Every shift becomes a live audition. That’s your shortlist—built on performance, not paperwork.

Re-Book Top Performers (Before Someone Else Does)

When someone shows up early, takes initiative, and earns trust fast—don’t let them slip away. Re-book them for your next shift. Build consistency. Students notice when a business values their work, and they return the favor with loyalty and effort.

Repeat shifts = relationship building = ready-made pipeline.

Build a Pipeline with Pro Tools

Your Core plan keeps your short-term needs covered. But if you’re ready to think bigger, Pro and Enterprise plans unlock features built for long-term hiring. Recurring schedules. Internship management. Contract-to-hire pipelines.

Our AI Talent Assistant tracks skills, schedules, and performance to recommend the best fits for ongoing roles—so your seasonal help can evolve into steady contributors. You’re not starting over every season. You’re building upward.

Track Performance Automatically

Every shift booked through Stunio builds a verified record of work history, attendance, and employer feedback. You can see who’s showing up, who’s thriving, and who’s ready for more. No guessing. No memory gaps. Just data you can trust when it’s time to make your next hire.

Make It Official

If someone’s consistently performing, your team keeps asking for them by name, and they already feel like part of the crew—make it official. Stunio gives you the confidence to convert great shift workers into part-time or full-time hires you already know and trust. With no extra fees. It’s the lowest-risk hire you’ll ever make.

The Bottom Line: Every Shift Is a Trial Run for Talent

With Stunio, you’re not hiring blind. You’re hiring smart.

You get real-world proof before you commit—and the tools to keep top performers in your orbit. Fill the shift. Spot the talent. Grow your team.
