“ We are generally very satisfied with InStaff. We always get very good staff, even at the last minute. However, there are two things we have to criticise: after a certain period of time, a job advertisement falls out of the system and no one can apply for it anymore. As a company, we have to constantly keep an eye on whether the advert is still active. Another point of criticism is the many emails we receive from InStaff every day. ”

“ I was really happy with my experience with Instaff. I found the platform easy to use, to understand, and most of all, efficient. One area of improvement that I would like to see in the future, is a better communication on the payment process, and how it works. Because I thought that actually, giving my credit card number was enough to unlock the payment, but afterwards I realized that I had to pay the invoice by bank transfer. I would for sure recommend InStaff, or ask again for help in the future. ”

If you only need service staff for single assignments, events or seasonal peaks, hiring is usually the more economical solution. You only pay for the hours actually worked, without fixed costs, continued pay or the administrative effort of a permanent employment.
Registration and use of the online platform are free. Costs only arise when you book staff. InStaff offers a transparent pricing model: you pay a clearly defined surcharge of 43% on the gross wage of the service staff, no further costs apply. The hourly rate for waiters is currently e.g. 22.17 EUR per hour (basis: InStaff minimum wage of 15.50 EUR plus 43%). For detailed calculations use our price calculator.
With InStaff it works the other way round than with a classic gastro agency: you do not search for staff yourself, the service staff apply directly to your job posting. This way you can hire service staff in Berlin without long correspondence, hidden placement fees or individual price negotiations – at a transparent price from the start.
Depending on the assignment, service staff in Berlin help with drinks service, serving food, clearing tables, guest care and buffet support. Besides experienced waiters you can also book bartenders, kitchen helpers and general catering staff for gastronomy, catering and hotels.
All service staff go through an application process including an interview, profile creation and verification of previous experience. Many bring experience from gastronomy, catering or events; for catering and food-related assignments InStaff additionally checks the IfSG health certificate. You can see experience and reviews in the profiles beforehand.
In case of absence, InStaff usually provides equivalent replacement staff within 24 hours – without additional service fees. This way your assignment in Berlin continues without interruption.
