The proof of the pudding is in the eating, and the proof of the new hospitality tech is often in the onboarding 🍮 TiPJAR® were the very first hospitality brand to go Candid, and their Head of Customer Success Stephanie Latham, has the perfect CV to judge the quality of our pudding… we mean platform. With a decade of hospitality recruitment experience on both sides of the fence - including Côte Restaurants, Harri & ETM Group London, we were as excited as we were nervous to hear her thoughts. So we're going to leave the rest of this post to Steph, and her feedback on actually using Candid Hospitality: "𝘐 𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘭𝘺 𝘶𝘴𝘦𝘥 𝘢 𝘯𝘦𝘸 𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘳𝘶𝘪𝘵𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘵𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘪𝘵'𝘴 𝘶𝘯𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘺𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘦𝘭𝘴𝘦 𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦.

Today we have the absolute pleasure of announcing that Bill's Restaurants have gone Candid. A fan-favourite nationwide, across all day parts and demographics (including dogs) you’ll be hard pushed to find someone who doesn't enjoy Bill’s all-day offering. This extends to their teams, who create a consistently friendly & accommodating atmosphere - which doesn’t happen by accident 🙌🐶 Bill’s have their own Three C’s; 'Curious, Courageous & Colourful' - core values that run through their business. Which is one of the many reasons that they’re a perfect match for our pilot scheme. Tom James, Managing Director, was kind enough to share what had attracted them to the platform: “𝘈𝘵 𝘉𝘪𝘭𝘭’𝘴 𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘴 𝘪𝘴 𝘌𝘝𝘌𝘙𝘠𝘖𝘕𝘌 𝘓𝘌𝘈𝘝𝘌𝘚 𝘏𝘈𝘗𝘗𝘠.
