“How to Hire Great Staff and Save Money 8 Simple Steps”

“Get better hiring results using our DIY Recruiting Handbook – OR we will happily refund your money – Guaranteed”

Secrets of how to DIY recruit that Recruitment Agencies and Consultants would rather you did not know!

“Recruiting the right people is vital to grow small business”

  • What you’re about to discover will ensure you never hire the wrong person again.
  • You can save huge money by doing your own hiring
  • How to avoid making eight deadly mistakes hiring new employees

If you’d like to know the secrets of recruiting great people, read on…..

Peter owns a business employing around 40 people, and he needs good employees to grow the business. He also knows first-hand the terrible costs and difficulties that the wrong choice of employee can cause!

Whilst the staff Peter uses for hiring are enthusiastic, they are not fully trained or really expert in the best practices and techniques available to ensure a new employee really is the best person for the job. In fact, the last time was a bit of a debacle, and one really good applicant did not accept the job when offered as she felt that the business was unprofessional and not well organised.

Peter commented “The other thing is that it takes quite a lot of time and effort for our staff to deal with recruiting, on top of all their other duties and responsibilities. This is compounded as we don’t really have a good proven system. And because recruiting is often a “part-time” component of their normal job, it is disruptive and is seen by some as a bit of a nuisance.

So to solve that problem we have often used recruiting agencies or consultants to help us out. However, we usually find that their charges seem out of proportion to the amount of work they have to do, and many of them repeatedly sent us applicants that were clearly not suited to our needs. I feel that we could do as good a job ourselves most of the time, and save a lot of money!

But the main thing is that we just have to get the right sort of person – someone who has the ability to do the tasks, and also the personality to get along well with other staff and customers.

It is absolutely disastrous if we appoint the wrong person, as we did recently. We wasted a lot of time training him, and two good staff left because of him before we realised what was happening. And the effect on overall productivity and morale was a major concern for management, staff and customers!

We need to be certain that anybody we appoint is best for the job, and for the growth and future of our business.

Then luckily we found that there was an answer for all our problems. We are so pleased that we found out about the DIY Recruiting Handbook and all the vital information it contains. We now confidently recruit all our own employees, and we do it better than any agency we have ever used.

And naturally it is a lot cheaper – in fact, we estimate that we save over $8000 for each hire that we do ourselves. And the solution only cost $20, what a bargain!

Our staff is grateful to now have an easily understandable process to follow that really works, and saves them a lot of time. It also means that we have greatly shortened the time between having a vacancy and filling a position, so we obtain productivity gains here too. Also, we no longer lose good applicants because we were too slow to deal with them.

Recruiting is quite an enjoyable experience now that we know what we are doing, and we are certain that we are putting on employees that will succeed.”

Global recruiting giant Adecco estimated in 2003 that “bad hires” cost SME’s between $10,000 to $250,000 in replacement costs, depending upon the job.
