Automated Snagajob Unfilled Shift Alerts

Every few minutes, WebRun checks your urgent Snagajob shift postings, emails you through Gmail the moment one has gone six hours with zero applicants, and logs every urgent posting to Airtable so your team can see which shifts still need coverage.

In short

How do I know if a Snagajob shift posting still has no applicants?

WebRun checks your urgent Snagajob shift postings every few minutes and emails you through Gmail the moment one has gone six hours with zero applicants. It logs every urgent posting to Airtable so coverage status stays visible, so an hourly employer catches an uncovered shift early enough to still fix it before it starts.

  • Uncovered shifts get flagged hours before they start
  • Every urgent posting stays visible in one Airtable log
  • Fewer shifts go unfilled at the last minute

Questions, answered

Does it raise pay or boost the posting automatically?

No. WebRun only alerts you. Raising pay, boosting a listing, or editing a shift posting is still done by you in Snagajob.

How is urgent defined?

Any posting marked urgent or shift-based with zero applicants six hours before it needs to be filled.

Will I get repeated alerts for the same shift?

The shift stays logged in Airtable until it gets an applicant or the shift time passes, so you always know its live status.
