Employee Interview and Selection Guide

Only $24.95

What you need to know to make the right choices for the right reasons.

  • Hire qualified, motivated, right fit employees the first time

  • Understand the fundamentals of top employee performance

  • Increase sales and customer service through more effective employee selection

  • Know the law and avoid litigation

  • If you have ever made a bad hire, you know how costly and frustrating it can be. Research shows that the cost of a bad hire can be three times their annual salary, or more!

    It's also expensive to hire and train a person with lots of talent and experience, and then place them in a job that really does not fit them. Their performance is likely to be poor, or at best, mediocre. Why settle for that? There is a better way...for them and for you.

    This 45 page Guide provides you with templates and examples for job descriptions, how to write a newspaper or Internet ad for your job. Interview and background reference questions to ask and many check lists as well as an Employer’s Guide to Surviving Employment Commission Appeals. If you have employees this is critical information you need to have!
