Hiring can be a challenging process that goes beyond interviewing candidates for a position. It involves the following: assessing and defining the position, developing recruiting strategies, screening applicants, interviewing, making a hiring decision with an offer and of course the legal implications that need to be considered.
Without considering these factors, managers often hire based on how well a job candidate presents him/herself or on gut instinct. As a result, they often live to regret their hiring decisions.
Hiring the wrong person for the job leads to a decrease in productivity, high turnover, low morale, and lots of frustration for all. That is why is it vital that managers learn a system for more effective hiring.
Firing consists of employment law, progressive discipline and documentation.
