WyckWyre to Showcase Customer Success Department at 2012 NRA Show

New York (PRWEB) May 02, 2012

It’s customer service like the restaurant and hospitality industry has never seen before. A team who will advertise all of the restaurant or hotel’s positions across multiple platforms. A team who will check the business’ job postings daily to make sure people are finding the open opportunities. A team who makes sure the company is getting quality applicants. All on a system that ensures the hiring manager is focusing on the best applicants according to the company’s standards.

It’s WyckWyre’s Customer Success Department.

“After using WyckWyre for just a week, our managers are raving about the candidate pool,” Chris James, Director of Business Development for Latrelles, franchisees of Wendy’s, Subway, Buffalo Wild Wings and Peet’s Coffee & Tea, said.

The department is responsible for managing the recruiting success of WyckWyre’s customers. Both independent restaurants and franchisees of companies such as Wendy’s, Applebee’s and Hilton Homewood Suites benefit from the department.

“We launched the Customer Success Department late last year, and we’re excited to show how our hands-on approach works at the 2012 National Restaurant Association show,” Lisa DiVirgilio, marketing manager at WyckWyre, said.

The department was developed out of the need for restaurateurs to have more time on the floors of their restaurants, and less time in the back worrying about a complicated recruiting system.

“We help managers set up the job description and the pre-screening criteria. Once they post their position, they can rest assured we are advertising it to as many people as we can so they receive quality workers when they log back in. They don’t have to worry about hanging that ‘now hiring’ sign anymore, or finding job boards online to post to. We take care of that for them,” Jessica Miller said.

Miller, WyckWyre’s Customer Success Specialist, helped develop the department in October 2011 along with WyckWyre’s Vice President, Justin Poet. Both Miller and Poet will be on-hand to answer questions customers may have about the Customer Success Department at WyckWyre’s location at the 2012 National Restaurant Association show, booth #6177, located in the technology pavilion.

###

WyckWyre is the easy way to recruit the best employees for open restaurant and hospitality positions – whether the positions are for entry-level or top-level management. From one business location, to 500 locations, WyckWyre helps independent and franchise restaurants, hotels, golf clubs and more to create powerful job descriptions and virtual interviews questions that combine as many yes/no or long-form answers as they’d prefer. Then, WyckWyre advertises all of the positions for the companies and monitors the success of each opening to ensure quality traffic and applicants. Companies can see the results of the virtual interviews and focus on the best candidates by simply logging in from anywhere with an internet connection.

Simply put, WyckWyre makes hiring the best applicant for the job easy.

Used Engines from UsedEngines.co Now Include a 30-Point Inspection By Certified Mechanics


Detroit, MI (PRWEB) April 27, 2012

Used engines bought online are an example of one of the ways that an automobile owner can save money when an engine problem renders a car motionless. Taking a broken down vehicle to a mechanic or dealership can come with a much larger expense for an automobile owner that does not have an active warranty. Buying a used engine from a catalog or other publication is a process that has been popular for decades. One online dealer, http://www.UsedEngines.co, announces that every customer will receive additional protection for their purchase due to a new 30-point inspection system. Certified mechanics now handle the acquisitions and dynamometer testing for used engines before each engine is sold to the public.

This new 30-point inspection is designed to locate any problem that could be present deep inside of an engine before it is sold to a consumer. There are warning signs that we can detect and immediately take appropriate action when problems are discovered, said Mike Jones, Lead Engine Mechanic at UsedEngines.co. This 30-point inspection is available to every customer and business owner that purchases used engines for sale online. Creating authority is one of the challenges that online engine dealers face when selling engines from a website. “There are many photos published on websites that appear to be fantastic engines,” added Jones. “The reality is that some dealers are not very honest with descriptions and photographs and sometimes deliver engines that are less quality than described,” Jones said.

The age of an engine is one factor that someone buying an engine can have concerns about. Car, SUV and truck engines that are between 5 and 10 years old can have high mileage on them and this can affect the overall performance. Professional engine testing includes the use of a dynamometer that is able to test each engine for compression problems, fluid leaks and can determine the actual mileage count on each engine. The investment into this technology is an expense that not every engine dealer can afford. The competitive nature of the used engines business can sometimes breed unfair competition and there are consumers that end up on the losing side of what they thought was a fair deal. Some problems might occur during the shipping process from a warehouse to a customers location. “We have a professional team of associates that ship out engines daily to every corner of the world,” said Joe Tau, Logistics Coordinator at UsedEngines.co. “Every freight company that we work with gives us excellent service in the handling of our engines,” added Tau.

The buying and shipping of Ford, Chevy, Dodge and Japanese Domestic Motors is one of the hidden arts that the average consumer never gets the opportunity to witness. Engines arrive each day in cargo containers at every sea port in the U.S. and these engines are routed through distributors and sent directly to sellers like UsedEngines.co. Apart from the 30-point inspection and testing process, UsedEngines.co now includes a 3-year warranty with every used engine purchase to provide a level of assurance to mechanics, body shops and consumers. Any problems with these used engines for sale are fixed promptly should an issue happen at anytime during 36-months after purchase.

About UsedEngines.co

Since launching its used engines website in 2010, UsedEngines.co has built a network of satisfied customers in the U.S., Canada and in some foreign countries. Customer service is not a lost art from this retailer. Management has made appropriate investments and trained hired employees to be total engine experts. A 3-year warranty combined with customer service and inspected engines has helped UsedEngines.co raise its first quarter 2012 sales over 30 percent compared to sales during the first quarter of 2010.

FDAImports.com Gets Company off Import Alert #36-04, Honey and Syrup With Fluoroquinolones

Columbia, MD (PRWEB) April 12, 2012

FDAImports.com recently achieved another Import Alert success for one of its clients, this time for FDA Import Alert #36-04, “Detention Without Physical Examination of Honey and Blended Syrup Due to Presence of Fluoroquinolones.” FDA implemented this Import Alert many years ago upon discovery of certain antibiotics, specifically, ciprofloxacin and enrofloxacin in honey products and blended syrups. The antibiotics, while permitted for use in cattle, are not permitted for honeybees as the residues can transfer into the honey and its products.

In this case, the U.S. importer contacted FDAImports.com to help remove their foreign supplier from the Import Alert by preparing a well-documented petition that addressed FDAs specific concerns for this Import Alert. The petition from FDAImports.com was successful and FDA removed this suppler from the Import Alert, thereby alleviating the U.S. importers supply-chain strains.

The damage done by an FDA hold or Import Alert can be devastating for a company bringing in product to the United States. Some of these impediments include:


Private lab testing costs
Delays in importing, most likely a month or more
Unpredictable timelines due to FDA workload and responsiveness
Possible warehousing costs during the hold

However, these Import Alerts damage much more than a companys P&L sheet, they destroy its most valuable asset: the company brand. Many companies do not even want to do business with a firm that is on FDA Import Alert. FDAImports.com helps foreign companies get off Import Alert, saving them and/or their U.S. importer thousands of dollars and countless hours in delays, damages and deadlines and helping them restore brand equity.

About FDAImports.com

FDAImports.com is an FDA consulting firm helping U.S. and foreign companies navigate through and meet complex FDA regulations for marketing and importing foods, dietary supplements, drugs, cosmetics and medical devices. Benjamin L. England, Founder and CEO, is a former 17-year veteran of the FDA and served as the Regulatory Counsel to the Associate Commissioner for Regulatory Affairs.

Greater Hudson Valley Health System signs Schumacher Group as exclusive ER services provider: SG Providers will staff Orange Regional and Catskill Regional

Middleton, NY (PRWEB) April 07, 2012

Louisiana-based Schumacher Group (SG) has been chosen as the exclusive Emergency Medicine Management firm for Orange Regional Medical Center (ORMC) in Middletown, the first new hospital in New York state in nearly 25 years, and its sister hospital, Catskill Regional Medical Center (CRMC) in Harris. Both hospitals are members of the Greater Hudson Valley Health System, the active parent company of the institutions, which provides healthcare to nearly 450,000 residents in Orange, Sullivan and Ulster Counties.

The Greater Hudson Valley Health System chose Schumacher Group over 12 competing management firms to staff their busy emergency departments at ORMC and CRMC.

ORMC alone will see approximately 65,000 annual visits to their ER. In order to provide clinical leadership and operational oversight in the Greater Hudson Valley Health System, Schumacher Group hired Dr. Bruce Whitman and Dr. Carlos Holden as Medical Directors for Orange Regional Medical Center and Catskill Regional Medical Center, respectively. SG also brought Dr. Anuj Vohra onto the staff at ORMC as the Associate Medical Director.

Dr. Whitman has been involved with emergency department leadership nearly 25 years. His clinical experience, medical education, & business education has positioned him well to lead the staff and the department at ORMC to accomplish the operational excellence and quality patient care that is expected, said Donald Lyles, Division COO for Schumacher Group. Dr. Whitman will also be of tremendous value as the hospital expands its trauma and pediatric services, as well as community outreach programs.

Dr. Holden was Medical Director and Chief of the Department of Emergency Medicine at CRMC when Schumacher Group was awarded the contract in January, 2012. His guidance has been instrumental to the successful transition to a partnership with the Schumacher Group, the hiring of new staff, and in managing the operational changes required to move into a completely, newly-renovated Emergency Department at CRMC , explained Lyles.

Dr. Vohra was also serving in a leadership role in the ED at ORMC when Schumacher was awarded the contract. His leadership and clinical expertise have provided a strong foundation as we begin to implement operational changes, hire new providers, and monitor quality metrics in the ED at ORMC, added Lyles.

Once the Medical Directors were secured, the SG recruiting team embraced the task of hiring providers in a new region.

This is a brand new market for our company, so the recruitment effort was tremendous, said SG Emergency Medicine Director of Provider Recruiting and Retention, Jason Duncan. With no previous contracts in this area of the country, the Greater Hudson Valley Health System put great trust in our team. We worked hard, retaining 50% of the existing physicians from the previous staffing group and signing 4 new physicians to join in.

The complete turnaround for the start-up took place in just 90 days.

Our expansion with the Greater Hudson Valley contract marks a new territory for our organization, said Schumacher Group President and COO, Jim Guidry. We are confident that our medical directors, along with our incredible team of providers, nurses and physicians assistants, will all work together to put patients first and deliver quality care at ORMC and CRMC.

The momentum from the Greater Hudson Valley Health System contract has since brought Schumacher Group into other parts of the Northeast as well. As of March 1, St. Michaels Hospital in Newark, NJ welcomed them as the exclusive provider of their emergency department services.
