Today we welcome ibis Styles Madrid Airport, in Valdebebas, to the QIU family.
A hotel next to the airport never rests. Early-morning arrivals, late-night departures, shifts that can never go uncovered. For a team like this, a three-week hiring process is simply not an option. That is why we were especially excited that they chose a way of hiring that goes straight to what matters: the conversation.

ibis Styles Madrid Airport has not waited for the industry to change. It has chosen to lead that change, committing to a more human way of hiring, where every candidate is truly listened to and known. A hotel that innovates to care for its team from the very first contact, and uses technology to do it faster and better.
On Thursday, the hotel opened three interview rooms on QIU. By Monday it had 16 bookings and 12 interviews completed. On Tuesday, five finalists moved on to meet the management team. By Wednesday, one person was already working at the hotel.
And it doesn't stop there. The hotel is still interviewing on QIU for several positions and is about to close another hire.
No job ad flooding the inbox with CVs. No blind screening. Only candidates who fit the role and spoke directly with the hotel's leaders.
“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
“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
For years, hospitality has measured recruitment by the number of applications. But a hotel doesn't need a hundred CVs. It needs the right people, and it needs them this week.
“Seeing a hotel like this go from opening a room to having someone new at work in four days is exactly why we created QIU. This isn't about technology, it's about two people talking.”
Alberto Alonso, Co-founder of QIU
“The hotel team was involved from the very first moment and connected directly with candidates. When the company and the candidate arrive at the interview knowing it makes sense to talk, everything moves faster.”
David Bares, Co-founder of QIU
