How PAAM can help you
Festival Staff
PAAM can help with your festival staff by bringing many of the tasks involved with recruiting, administering and managing festival staff together into a single software application.
Due to the way PAAM works - a secure online software application based on Cloud Architecture - PAAM enables all involved with your festival staff to have access to the information they require from wherever they may be working, be this in the office, from home or onsite at the event itself.
When offsite you can setup new festivals in PAAM at any time; each of your festivals including groups and shifts for your festival staff to be assigned to. Your festivals, groups and shifts can be referenced quickly and easily letting you know how many festival staff have applied, how many festival staff have paid a deposit and how many festival staff have been offered positions.
New festival staff can be directed towards PAAM, festival staff can then quickly and easily setup an account and start applying for festivals straight away. As new festivals which you require staff for are added to PAAM; all current festival staff can quickly be contacted by email or text message letting your festival staff know they can login and apply for the staff positions at the new festivals.
Festival information can be uploaded to PAAM for your festival staff to view and download. Festival specific documents for your staff such as festival staff briefing packs, festival staff health and safety information, directions for festival staff, maps for festival staff, festival staff shift patterns, train timetables for festival staff and more can be uploaded to a festival allowing all of your festival staff who have been offered a position at that festival to view and download.
If your festival staff are required to pay a deposit for a festival staff position; the festival staff deposit payment can be processed via PAAM. The PAAM E-Commerce Payment Gateway is simple to setup - defaulting to PayPal although any merchant gateway or payment provider can be used. PAAM can also supply details for festival staff to pay a festival staff deposit via BACS or Cheque.
PAAM's messaging systems are incredibly versatile and designed for recruiting, administering and managing festival staff. Festival staff can be contacted by location, festival application status, festival payment status, festival staff group and shift status and much more. This allows for targeted messaging of your festival staff throughout your festival season.
You can find out more about PAAM in the PAAM Tour.
As you promote your festival staff vacancies each year to recruit your festival staff; PAAM can help show you which methods are best for getting the word out to your festival staff. Throughout PAAM easy to reference visual breakdowns of your festival staff recruitment statistics are displayed including the number of festival staff logging in, how many festival staff are following this up with a festival staff application and a festival staff deposit payment. PAAM follows this up with simple and easy to reference visual breakdowns of your festivals, festival staff group and festival staff shift statistics. The number of festival staff applications made, festival staff deposit payments received, festival staff accepted and more are all displayed so you can easily see where you are with your festival staff and what you need to do.
PAAM includes numerous festival exports designed specifically for administering festival staff. All of your festival staff who have been offered a position at a festival can be exported to an Excel file - this festival export including all festival staff personal details and showing which festival staff group or shift each of your festival staff has been allocated to. PAAM includes more specific exports for festival staff PNC and CRB checks, ordering uniforms for your festival staff and more.
When you need to find festival staff this can be done quickly using PAAM's simple to use festival staff search filters. Festival staff can be searched for by location, qualifications, festival staff experience and directly via personal details such as name, email address or PAAM ID number.
There will always be some festival staff you recruit who you would rather not see at another festival; PAAM's blacklist allows you to block festival applications from both current festival staff and potential festival applicants. Blocking a festival applicant stops the festival staff member being able to apply for new festivals and removes them from any festivals previously applied to.
When you get to the festival site PAAM Onsite can help you setup quickly and focus on managing your festival staff. All of the data you require to get up and running including your festival staff profiles, your festival staff groups and shifts are ready and waiting. PAAM Onsite allows you to get your festival staff checked in, assign and confirm your festival staff's shifts, record your festival staff's attendance, make notes about and rate your festival staff's performance. When you're ready PAAM Onsite can then be synchronised with PAAM Online.
A demo of PAAM can be experienced from an applicant/user perspective here.
