department on demand: recruiting
As a small business owner, every job opening is a new experience and every hire is a critical hire. A poor hiring decision has a greater impact in a small business. Recruiting and interviewing takes time and money. Training and orientation takes time from your managers and staff. A “bad hire” costs even more in time, money and customer satisfaction…and you need to start recruiting all over again.
This toolkit will help you identify the critical knowledge, experience and soft skills required for success in positions and your company culture before you spend time interviewing candidates without the critical skills your company needs. This toolkit will give you everything you need to set up and implement a consistent, effective and objective recruiting system.
