Dedicated to Improving Employee Selection and Engagement
Hiring is the front door to your future success. Is hiring your competitive advantage? If not, is it your competitors?
FOCUS.…. OWNERSHIP.…. ACCOUNTABILITY……CONSTANTLY IMPROVING
Why is this Important?
- The rules have changed! We are now beginning a post-pandemic economy. If you are having problems hiring now, it will get much worse in the next two years as we reach a full employment economy. Time to plan is now.
- Companies will be hiring more remote employees where flexibility and trust become even more important than they are now. Are your managers ready?
- Employees stay on average only 1 1/2 years. Each turnover impacts your Hiring Brand – either positively or negatively
After 25 years, we still see habits that hurt employee retention and engagement. For example:
- HR does a good job developing a hiring system – new job descriptions, interview questions, multiple interviewers, etc. However, too many managers short circuit the process. (i.e., “I’m a good judge of character” hiring managers, the 1st impression managers, remote branch managers, etc.).
- After a new candidate fails to meet expectations, the manager says: “I would have hired better if HR had gotten us better candidates.”
The costs of a poor hire can be staggering.
- One CEO I know hired a new CFO for his 350-person manufacturing plant. The CFO was a member at his golf club. He felt he knew him well enough to by-pass the company’s the hiring process. That hiring decision cost the company $63,000 in severance and the CEO a golf partner.
- Another company hired a new manager who was quickly named the “screamer” by the employees. Those employees told the company what they thought of the new person by lowering the product’s quality and doubling the turnover rate in six months.
