Tao Group Hospitality Partners with LANDED

In an exciting move that is set to reshape hiring processes in the hospitality sector, Tao Group Hospitality has teamed up with LANDED, a frontrunner in generative AI for high-volume recruitment. The strategic collaboration aims to streamline hiring workflows, enhance applicant quality, and reduce overall hiring costs – an essential trifecta in today's fast-paced service industry.

The backbone of this partnership is LANDED's advanced generative AI technology, which automates various hiring functions including candidate sourcing, screening, and interview scheduling. This automation allows operators and general managers to concentrate on delivering an unmatched guest experience, instead of getting bogged down by time-consuming HR tasks.

The rollout of this innovative platform is already in progress across all U.S. locations operated by Tao Group. Renowned establishments such as LAVO, Hakkasan, Crane Club, and OMNIA are among the first to integrate LANDED’s technology into their hiring processes. Early results indicate a remarkable transformation in efficiency, yielding an astonishing interview wait time of under 24 hours, saving over 6,530 hours for operators and matching more than 17,000 qualified candidates with suitable roles.

Jacobo Duran, the Director of Restaurant Operations in Las Vegas, expressed enthusiasm about the initiative, stating, "LANDED has been great in helping us fill positions with high turnover. They've been instrumental in getting candidates scheduled and helping us reach hiring decisions quickly."

The partnership comes at a time when the demand for high-quality talent continues to climb amidst market volatility. In fact, a recent report from Gartner highlights that talent leaders are prioritizing AI solutions for talent acquisition, with many ranking these technologies among their top three emerging technology priorities. As part of their commitment to innovation and excellence in hiring, LANDED has gained notable recognition in Gartner's 2024 Hype Cycle for Talent Acquisition Report.

In collaboration with Tao Group, the LANDED team tailored applicant engagement models specifically designed to meet their unique needs. This customization not only ensures access to top-tier talent but also allows Tao Group to cultivate a compelling employer brand that resonates with potential candidates.

Taylor Tamburo, Director of Talent Acquisition at Tao Group Hospitality, emphasized the value of their workforce, stating, "At Tao Group Hospitality, our biggest asset is our team. We are committed to supporting our operators and managers, and LANDED has been instrumental in giving them back hours of time to focus on what they love most about their jobs. We are thrilled that LANDED is helping us provide not only a best-in-class experience for our guests, but also for our team members and candidates."

The influence of LANDED's AI-driven hiring solution is not limited to Tao Group; several other prominent restaurant brands such as Erewhon, Union Square Hospitality, KFC, Five Guys, and McDonald's are also embracing this technology to streamline their recruitment processes.

As an industry leader consistently recognized for excellence, Tao Group Hospitality is dedicated to delivering culinary brilliance and exceptional entertainment experiences. As they continue to expand their footprint across the United States, this partnership with LANDED signifies a forward-thinking approach that guarantees not only operational excellence but also a richer experience for both customers and employees. The hospitality industry is indeed witnessing a paradigm shift, and Tao Group is at the forefront of this change as they redefine what it means to hire in today's competitive market.
