Is your team a cohesive unit? Enthusiastic, efficient, and trained to deliver the best outcomes for your business and your customers?
The cost of getting recruitment wrong may not be immediately apparent. It’s more likely to show as a slow burn for the business:
- High turnover burns up resources for advertising and the time taken for recruitment, onboarding and training.
- Dealing with unreliable employees is challenging and can impact the morale of the whole team. If not handled well it can be a real liability for the business.
The cost of getting it wrong is high. The return on investment of getting it right is basic to your success.
- Read the room: Take a careful look at each CV. Ask the right questions. Have they changed jobs frequently? This doesn’t mean you should disregard potential candidates who may have wide experience in a variety of roles across different businesses, maybe even different sectors. But ask why someone may have moved around a bit. Their answer may persuade you they’re the candidate you’re looking for. Or not.
- Room to grow? Look for someone willing to grow at this stage in their career. Don’t write off candidates with extensive experience who are ready and eager to challenge themselves in a new setting.
- The right fit: Don’t under-estimate the importance of a good fit with you and the rest of the team. Your candidate may be a star performer but if they’re not a good fit in your team, it can throw everyone’s game off.
Finding the right people can help propel your business to new heights.
