When hiring a new employee, you are always taking a risk. Will the candidate turn out to be as good as he or she appeared in the job interview? Sometimes you have a gut feel that tells you that this person is perfect for the job, but after spending much time and money on the person, things start to go wrong, and you wonder how you made such an obviously bad choice. To hire correctly, you need more than a gut feel to help you. Here are some tips to help you along.
Recruiting .
Finding your new employee involves some creativity and a bit of good fortune. Don't expect it to happen overnight. Most quality candidates take from a month to a year or more to find. Knowing where to go in your search for the "perfect employee" is important. The first thing that comes to mind is usually the newspaper. This is a good place to start. Classified advertisements are most noticed on Sundays. Be careful when placing an advertisement in your local paper as this can prove to be a waste of time and money. You need to word your advert carefully and target it to the particular type of person you need. It is not enough to simply state the computer literacy, basic duties and salary range, as this will draw a huge response of unsuitable candidates. Think about the personality traits and special abilities needed for the job, and include phrases like "highly organized" and "can work under pressure" to attract competitive people and put off less assertive candidates (depending on the position). Be careful, however, not to discriminate against candidates by specifying age, sex, race, marital status, etc., as this goes against current Labor Law. .
In addition to newspapers, consider utilizing other publications: the community newsletter, the church bulletin, etc. Most importantly, rely on your networks. Most likely the colleagues who sit on the same committees as you, who belong to the Chamber of Commerce with you, or who do business with you are reliable references.
