Fast-track recruitment tool

The Greek Labor Ministry is set to launch a new digital platform called 'Fast Recruitment' to address urgent staffing needs, especially during the summer tourist season. The tool allows for quick hiring via a mobile app, including on weekends and holidays. This initiative is part of broader efforts to digitize labor processes and reduce bureaucratic hurdles. Recent data indicates strong hiring activity, with record numbers of recruitment announcements and a significant net increase in jobs.

The Labor Ministry is preparing to activate a new digital platform, named “Fast Recruitment,” in the coming days, just as the labor market is recording historically high hiring performance and tourism businesses are looking for staff in anticipation of the peak of the summer season.

This is a new fast-track recruitment tool, which will allow covering emergency staff needs for up to two days a week, even on holidays and weekends, via a mobile app.

“Fast Recruitment” is one of the key interventions of the ministry for the further digitalization of labor processes and the reduction of bureaucracy.

The activation of the new app comes at a time when recruitment is already at particularly high levels. According to the data of the Ergani database, in April alone, 352,335 recruitment announcements were made, while the recruitment-resignation balance was positive by 145,209 jobs, a performance that is the highest ever recorded for the month of April since 2001.

In the first quarter of 2026, recruitments reached 993,189, creating a net balance of 200,113 new jobs, the best performance of the first quarter of the last 25 years.
