How to hire on the Staffing Marketplace

A posting lists the roles you need filled, how many people you need for each, and what each pays. It goes up on the public Staffing page, where referees and volunteers apply, as soon as you save it, even before your event is published. You then review the applications in your planner.

Before you start

• You need to manage the event, or hold a role that lets you manage its staffing.
• To require a course, it must be published, and either public or shared by your organization.

Steps

1. In your event’s planner, click Referees in the sidebar. To hire staff or volunteers, click Staff instead, then Staffing / Marketplace in the next step: the rest works the same.

   

2. Click Staffing.

   

3. Click Create Posting.

   

4. Enter a Title and a Description: the event, what you expect, anything applicants should know. Currency starts as your event’s, and an Application Deadline, if you set one, shows on the posting.

   

5. Under Roles, enter the Role Name, such as Head Referee, and set Spots to how many people you need. For a referee role, you can also pick a Desired Level.

   

6. On an event of more than one day, turn on Set spots per day and enter how many people you need each day. Applicants then pick the days they can work.

   

7. Choose the Pay Structure and enter the rate:

   • Per Game: $/Game for each round robin game they work, and $/Playoff for each playoff game.
   • Flat Rate: one amount for the event.
   • Hourly or Per Time Block: a rate for each hour or block, and you enter how many they worked when you pay them.

   For an unpaid role, turn on Volunteer instead.

   

8. To take only people who have passed a course, pick it under Required Course (optional). Applicants without a valid credential for it see Complete accreditation to apply, which opens the course, instead of Apply.

   

9. Click Save.

   

10. The posting is listed as Open, with its number of roles and how many spots are filled. Close stops it taking applications, the pencil edits it, and the bin deletes it.

    

Where people find it

1. Open postings are listed on the public Event Staffing page, which anyone can open from Staffing positions in the app menu. Referee postings are under Referees, staff postings under Volunteers.

   

2. Your posting’s page shows each role with its pay and the spots left, day by day on a multi-day event. Referees and volunteers apply from here.

   

A posting stays listed until its event ends, you close it, or every spot is filled. To list it on your event’s own page too, add the Staff / Volunteers module (see how to build your event landing page).
