Case Study: Carey International achieves 2x staffing productivity and fills 288 extra shifts with PopBookings Manage & Recruit

How Carey Leverages PopBookings “Manage” & “Recruit” for Maximum Value

Carey International, the world’s leading provider of chauffeured services and ground transportation logistics, faced inefficient, manual staffing and hiring processes for event contractors that didn’t scale—especially during episodic spikes like the Super Bowl. Seeking a technology partner to modernize booking, communication, and onboarding, Carey turned to PopBookings and adopted its Manage and Recruit products to centralize contractor scheduling and hiring.

Using PopBookings Manage for ongoing staffing and PopBookings Recruit for high-volume, on-demand hires, Carey filled 288 additional shifts for Super Bowl week, received 169 applicants in days, doubled staffing operations productivity, and achieved a 110% improvement in onboarding—all while reducing errors, automating payments, and avoiding costly third-party headhunting. PopBookings’ combined solution centralized hiring, cut costs, and delivered measurable operational impact.
