Gustav
Denver, Colorado, United States
What it is
Gustav is a staffing sub-vendor marketplace and vendor management platform for prime vendors, sub-vendors, master vendors, and MSP offerings. Prime vendors can share open jobs with all or selected trusted vendors. Gustav Circles groups vendors and supports releasing jobs in tiers. Teams can source vetted candidates, create scorecards, review documents, and sync submissions to an ATS.
Custom hiring pipelines track candidate stages and can trigger vendor notifications. Users can also send interview times to candidates and vendors from a pipeline. The Bullhorn integration shares jobs, receives candidate submissions, imports files, and syncs custom data. Gustav’s Chrome extension for JobDiva syncs jobs and candidate submissions and can trigger notifications when status changes; an XML feed exports marketplace jobs to an ATS. The free vendor sign-up lets sub-vendors join and follow prime vendors, while primes can invite current partners. Gustav is available on the web and as an extension. Most data is stored in an encrypted AWS database, with restricted server access. Fuse Cooperative operates Gustav as its technology platform.
