/Mainstay, Inc.A reliable workforce pipeline for hourly teams.
Mainstay automates sourcing, screening, and candidate coordination so your teams stay staffed and operational.
The problem
Hiring hourly workers is broken.
- reviewing hundreds of applicants per role
- coordinating interviews around shift schedules
- chasing candidates who go silent
- dealing with no-shows on day one
Mainstay automates the repetitive parts of hiring so teams can focus on operations.
How it works
Candidate applies
Send a branded screening link through email, SMS, or your ATS.
Candidate completes screening
Candidates answer async video or audio questions while the platform captures trust and verification signals.
Manager gets pre-screened candidates
Every candidate arrives pre-screened and thoroughly vetted — so you know who to interview before spending manager time.
How Mainstay helps
Pre-screen on their schedule
Candidates complete structured video or audio interviews on their own schedule. No live coordination required.
Every candidate, summarized

Automatic candidate verification

Screening in minutes, not hours
Reduce screening time from hours to minutes. Recruiters review summaries and recommendations instead of raw interviews.
