How is Swing different from traditional staffing agencies?
Swing combines a technology-driven marketplace with dedicated human support to deliver faster coverage, higher-quality substitutes, and lower total cost than traditional staffing agencies—while giving districts full visibility and control.
How fast can Swing fill a substitute request?
Swing can often fill substitute requests within minutes, including last-minute and same-day absences.
For urgent requests posted within 12 hours, Swing prioritizes high-performing and nearby substitutes first, increasing the likelihood of fast fills. Fill speed depends on role type, timing, and location, but the platform is optimized for both advance and urgent coverage.
How does Swing fill last-minute absences so quickly?
Swing uses a technology-driven matching system that:
- Prioritizes top-performing substitutes first
- Notifies nearby and qualified candidates instantly
- Expands visibility in real time if a request is not filled
This approach enables faster response times compared to manual staffing models.
