If you're looking at InfoJobs alternatives for hiring in hospitality or retail, start by working out what is actually letting you down. It may be that you aren't getting candidates from the sector, or that you're getting plenty and don't have time to read their applications, ring them and book them in. Those are two different problems, and each one is fixed with a different tool.
If you're short of candidates from the sector, Turijobs and Hosteleo are job boards for hospitality and tourism. If you want to reach more people, there's Indeed. If you'd rather talk to candidates by chat from your phone, there's Job Today. And if you don't want to sift applications or ring round to arrange interviews, on QIU the candidates who fit your vacancy book an interview themselves in your free slots.
What we say about each platform is taken from its website for employers, which we checked in November 2026.
Most comparisons rank job sites by how many candidates they have. When you've had a shift uncovered for days, it's more useful to know how much work is left for you after you post and how long it takes you to speak to someone.
On a job board, several days go by between posting and interviewing. On QIU you start with the interview, and when you open a room the slots usually fill up in about 10 minutes.
QIU is the first interview portal. You enter the role, the shift, the area and the times when you can interview, which takes a couple of minutes. QIU compares the vacancy with candidates' profiles, and only those who fit can book one of your slots.
That saves you almost everything you currently do before you sit down to talk to someone:
A company that signs up today can be interviewing tomorrow. ibis Styles Madrid Airport opened three rooms on a Thursday. By Monday it had 16 bookings and 12 interviews done, and by Wednesday there was already a new person working at the hotel. Hard Rock Hotel Madrid opened one room, spoke to eight candidates and had hired two days later.
"What surprised me most was the speed. We opened the rooms and very quickly our calendar was full of people who genuinely matched what we were looking for."
Nayra Fraile Ruiz, Executive Assistant, ibis Styles Madrid Airport Valdebebas
"In reception and operations we need people who know how to look after guests, and that doesn't show up on a CV. With QIU we talk to candidates from day one and make decisions with much more confidence."
Filipe Veiga Alves, General Manager, ibis Styles Madrid Airport Valdebebas
QIU is built for hotels, hotel chains, restaurant groups, catering companies and shops that fill customer-facing roles and can't spend a week on each vacancy. Right now most of the open rooms are in Madrid and Barcelona, and we're adding cities as we go. If you hire for another sector you can open a room too, although most of the candidates come from hospitality and retail.
It depends on what's letting you down today. If what you need is for more people to see your ad, Turijobs, Hosteleo or Indeed will bring you more applications. If what eats your time is sifting them, ringing people and arranging interviews, QIU is the quickest option, because you start directly with the interview.
It doesn't work the same way. On InfoJobs you post an ad and manage the applications that come in. On QIU you open an interview room with your free slots, and the candidates who fit the role book one.
You can start with a free account, which has limits, and move to the paid version when you're hiring more often. When you open your first room we'll help you choose the plan that suits you.
No, you don't. And if you already use one, we'll send you whichever candidate details you ask for.
Waiting staff for the floor and the bar, kitchen staff, receptionists, room attendants, shop assistants and other customer service roles.
