School lunch/recess aides are understaffed due to management failing to post job openings, causing unsafe supervision conditions for 50-60 children.

Existing job platforms are not being used effectively by management; vacancies are not posted or are taken down, leaving staff to manually plead for postings without transparency.

Workarounds Described

Manual requests for application postings via text/email to principal and board office
Checking school website and Facebook repeatedly to see if postings are live
Staff physically asking principal and board office for status updates

Implied Software Gaps

Automated job posting system that pushes vacancies to multiple platforms and notifies staff when postings are live or removed
Centralized dashboard for staff to see application status and hiring progress without manual follow-ups

App Concept

StaffSnap: School Staffing Hub

A school-specific staffing platform that automates job postings across multiple boards (Indeed, ZipRecruiter, school website, social media) with one click. Provides real-time transparency on posting status and applicant tracking, so staff and management can see exactly where openings are live and how many applicants have applied.

Key Features

One-click multi-channel job posting (Indeed, ZipRecruiter, school site, Facebook)
Real-time dashboard showing which platforms have active postings and application counts
Automated reminders to repost or renew postings after a set period
Transparent communication log between staff and management about hiring requests

Target Users: School administrators and support staff (e.g., lunch aides, paraprofessionals) in K-12 schools who manage or request hiring for non-teaching positions.

Revenue Model: $99/month per school subscription, includes up to 10 active postings; additional postings $10 each per month.
