ShyftOS: Shyft6’s own recruiting system
We replaced our own recruiting CRM with ShyftOS, a system we own — the same playbook we run for clients.
We ran our own recruiting desk on an off-the-shelf recruiting CRM until customizing it became the bottleneck: every workflow change meant fighting a platform built for someone else’s process. So the Shyft6 product team built ShyftOS — recruiter tools, timesheets, and attendance in one system we own — and deployed it to our own team.

The situation
What we were facing
- Every change to our recruiting workflow meant fighting a platform built for someone else’s process
- Customizations were slow to make and painful to maintain
- Recruiting, timesheets, and attendance lived in separate places
- Our candidate and client history sat in a vendor’s data model instead of our own
The work
What we delivered
- Moved the candidate and client data that matters out of the old platform and into a database Shyft6 owns
- Built recruiter tools around how our desk actually works
- Put timesheets and attendance in the same system as recruiting
- Deployed ShyftOS to our own team — a system we change when the process changes, instead of waiting on a vendor’s roadmap
