Recruiting for commercial cleaning contractors

Staff every night shift before the building opens.

Crewhire texts every cleaner applicant within minutes, in English or Spanish, screens them for your shifts, sites and transportation, and books interviews straight onto your supervisors' calendars. Or our recruiting team does all of it for you, and you only pay for people who show up.

How it works

From application to interview without anyone in your office touching it.

  1. 01

    Capture every applicant

    Indeed, Facebook, Craigslist, your website and a QR code at each site all feed one pipeline.

    Reach them in minutes

    A text goes out day or night, in English or Spanish, with follow-ups until they answer.

  3. 03

    Screen for your crews

    Shift availability, which sites they can reach, how they get there, the language the role needs, right-to-work and background-check consent.

  4. 04

    Book the interview

    Qualified people pick a slot on the right supervisor's calendar. Reminders cut no-shows, and open slots refill automatically.
