Swiggy launches recruitment support initiative for partner restaurants

Food and grocery delivery platform Swiggy on Thursday announced the launch of a new feature on its partner app to connect restaurants with staffing experts as part of a new recruitment support initiative.

Swiggy has teamed up with staff hiring experts like Apna, WorkIndia, Kaam, and Shiftz to help restaurants connect with qualified candidates across various roles.
