Zenjob is an employment and staffing agency for side jobs that connects companies with student temps. We offer companies an online booking platform where they can request temporary staff for individual days with just a few clicks to expand their core workforce with additional staff when needed. For students, we offer a mobile app where they can see the relevant one-day jobs they are suitable for from our companies. With just a few clicks, our Zenjobbers can apply for the jobs that best fit into their daily routine to earn money alongside their studies in the way that suits them best.
Companies request staff via our online booking platform. Suitable Zenjobbers see the corresponding one-day jobs in our mobile app and proactively apply for the ones that best fit their daily schedule. Our AI-powered software selects the most suitable person and sends them a digital employment contract for the booked job, which they sign directly on their cell phone.
Our student temps work for our companies on a short-term basis. They are placed at the respective company for their booked shifts, where they carry out their actual work. Zenjob takes care of the entire personnel administration for our Zenjobbers.
