Staffing Self-Service Customer Service: Are You Doing It?

It’s virtually impossible to be available to your clients and candidates 24/7. But your self-service portal can be. By providing your customers with a simple-to-use online service center, they can post or search for jobs, track time or simplify document tracking – all without picking up the phone.

Staffing self-service adds value for your customers and increases retention and customer satisfaction. Business owners and job seekers often need help outside of traditional business hours. When they can quickly help themselves, it frees you to focus on revenue driving activities.

Here are some of the benefits self-service can offer all of your customers:
