WedgeHR fits how you
already hire.
WedgeHR replaces the phone screen — not your entire process. Candidates record a short video on their own time. You review when you're ready.
"Those who fill out a Wedge tend to be more serious about actually responding and working for us. When we see a Wedge, we prioritize that candidate."

A YMCA Success Story
The YMCA of Greater Grand Rapids found a better way to hire. With a lean HR team supporting 85+ hiring managers across the association, they needed a solution that worked without adding headcount. Hear Megan’s story below.
"We didn't have the resources to bring on additional HR bodies, so we were looking for a technology supplement that could help us. WedgeHR was kind of a no-brainer."

WedgeHR is a candidate-driven hiring platform that replaces traditional phone screens with short, on-demand video interviews. YMCA hiring teams send candidates a simple invite — candidates record on their own time, on any device — and your team reviews when they're ready. No scheduling, no back-and-forth.
Yes — and completion rates improve quickly with simple setup adjustments. YMCA of Greater Grand Rapids sees a 63% completion rate. Candidates find the process easy, mobile-friendly, and respectful of their time. Those who complete it tend to be your most serious applicants.
WedgeHR integrates with the tools YMCA teams already use — including UKG, ADP, and Paylocity. It works alongside your existing system, not instead of it. No ripping and replacing anything you already have in place.
Most YMCA associations are up and running within a week. Every successful rollout started with a single department — childcare, aquatics, or camps — before expanding across branches. Your dedicated Customer Success partner handles setup, ATS integration, and training from day one.
Yes. WedgeHR was built for exactly this — high-volume, seasonal roles across multiple locations. Whether you're hiring lifeguards in May or camp counselors in March, Wedge helps your team screen faster and move the right candidates forward before programs launch.
Yes — and that's one of the most popular features for YMCA teams. Branch directors and program managers can review candidates on their own time, share feedback, and align on decisions without extra meetings or email chains. No additional logins or training required.
WedgeHR is built to be candidate-friendly — mobile-first, no downloads, no logins, and re-recordable so candidates feel comfortable. For member-facing organizations like YMCAs, a respectful, modern hiring experience reflects directly on your brand. Candidates consistently rate the process as fast and fair.
The biggest reason tools don't stick is adoption. WedgeHR is designed to be low-lift for hiring managers — no training required to review a video. Your Customer Success partner stays with you through rollout, monitors completion rates, and helps you optimize before expanding. Every active YMCA association started with one department and grew from there.
“Those who fill out a Wedge tend to be more serious about actually responding and working for us! When we see a Wedge we prioritize that candidate."
“This process saved us 15.5 hours between scheduling, actual call time, and scoring versus our previous experience scheduling and scoring phone screens for a high-level position in our organization.”
