Dishoom's Recipe for Achieving Over 90% Day One Starter Rate

Summary

Dishoom is an award winning restaurant group, serving Bombay inspired food across the UK. We spoke with Jess Campbell, Dishoom’s Head of Talent, about how Talent Funnel enhances Dishoom’s hiring experience, increasing the conversion rate from offer to day one starter to over 90%.

Dishoom's Challenge

Dishoom operates a centralised recruitment model whereby the hiring team manages company-wide recruitment.  As a fast growing restaurant group, the hiring team needed greater interview scheduling flexibility, consistent EVP experience and automated communication throughout the hiring process. 

Dishoom's Goals

  • Increase offer to day one starter conversion rate
  • Ensure Dishoom’s brand is consistent and clear at every touchpoint
  • Implement an ATS that is straightforward to use and integrated with their other HR tech.

The Solution

We launched a Careers Site to attract and showcase Dishoom’s brand, while our ATS supports Dishoom’s centralised hiring model and EVP objectives, ensuring an exceptional candidate experience and reduced hiring, training and administrative costs.

The Results

Increased hiring efficiency and reduced costs

“Achieving a 90%+ offer to day one starter rate means we reduce time to hire and operate more efficiently, saving on hiring and training costs.” – Jess Campbell, Head of Talent
