Posted in Employers on Jul 29, 2015 by Richard Hayden

High-end hamburger chain Byron has adopted a ‘speed dating’ approach to recruitment.

Managers and directors were given eight minutes to chat with each potential job-seeker at the event in Bryon Hoxton, before swapping tables to meet more candidates.

Byron contacted suitable candidates on LinkedIn to gauge their interest. After the ‘dating’, the candidates were presented with a free burger to allow them to sample the company’s signature product, a Scottish beef burger served with a gherkin and a craft beer.
