Hiring and On-boarding Top Talent - Everything a Hiring Manager Needs to Know
What is the cost of a bad hire? You've spent weeks advertising, interviewing, assessing and negotiating to get this person on board. You put them through orientation, put a training plan in place and given them access to your customers… And then four months into the job – they quit. Expensive. Now consider the additional costs you'll incur: lost business, severence, legal fees, finding a new replacement. Recent surveys estimate that the cost of a bad hire at between 1.5 to 5 times the salary of the job in question, after all costs are factored in.
This workshop has been created by several of the world’s leading international hiring managers to guide those hiring to identify top talent quickly, assess if they will fit into the team and perform well, and ultimately whether they will stay with the organization.
