Hiring is probably one of the most challenging parts of growing a business. Every day you will receive applications from people who might be the next person to join your team. Applicats can come from job boards, referrals, acquaintances and everywhere else but hiring can easily become a full-time job in itself. When you’re just starting out it’s even harder to know what good applicants are and what aren’t. That’s why I’ve put together a list of things to look for in applicants that can save you some time.
There are so many things to take in consideration when recruiting a team. You must make sure they will fit perfectly for the role, that have the skills required to get the job done, that they like your company. Let’s look info few of them in this article.
Be Respectful
One of the most important things is to treat people with respect from the moment I receive their application.
It sounds too easy to be true but if you want an engaged team you need to hire the right people and treat them with respect. This applies to every member of your team, from the owner to the newest intern. It doesn’t just take one bad apple to ruin a business, it takes multiple employees who consistently fail to do their job for the company.
Due your due diligence
It’s hard enough finding the right person, especially one you can trust and rely on to create good quality work. If you don’t take your time and do your due diligence while hiring – you risk wasting your time and money.
Hiring people is a stressful process, outsourced or not. There are so many things to consider, from an applicant’s resume to their qualifications, interviews to reference checks. One of the most important things you can do as a founder is to vet potential hires through in-depth due diligence.
Define the Job Properly
Just like hiring a contractor to fix a broken roof on your home, you need to define the job before you begin hiring an employee. Defining the job will help ensure that when you hire someone, they are capable of accomplishing the task. Hiring can be expensive and should always be done carefully. Always weigh all factors when considering to hire someone and make sure it is the right fit for your business
Check Their Background
It is your responsibility as an employer to check backgrounds and references of potential employees. Failure to do so can result in all kinds of problems ranging from people calling out of work a lot to stealing from you. A lot of these issues could be avoided by properly vetting your employees.
Ask the Right Interview Questions
Asking the right questions during a job interview is key to hiring the best candidate. Job candidates will answer your questions in a way that will make them sound like the perfect choice. It’s up to you as the interviewer to push the candidate outside of their comfort zone. This is where you’ll find their true character while learning if they’re someone who you can work with – for years to come.
