The Before, During, And After Process of Hiring

Last week we had an incredible conversation about attracting, building and maintaining a strong team. We would like to continue the conversation and dive deeper into the process of hiring.

Nowadays, we have access to global markets to create and build a team virtually. There are endless opportunities for businesses to expand and broaden their employee diversity. A company can now hire employees from each state and across the globe.

Building the right team starts with being intentional and designing the right hiring strategy. The hiring process has a ‘before, during, and after’.

Before hiring a person, you must understand the job role in detail. What is expected of the person who will fill the position?

Before you hire, before you build the team, you need to have a sense of what that team needs to be, and what roles you really need to fill. JEFF SASS

During this process, you have to keep in mind your company’s culture. There could be a great candidate in general, but if they don’t align with your culture or even your purpose it will not be a good fit long-term.

After hiring an employee, it is important to have a defined and personalized onboarding and training process. They are joining a new company, new culture, new team, new task… You have to train them and be as clear as possible about their role.

• Define their responsibilities.

• Set a few first measurable goals.

• Be clear on your expectations.

• Be available and approachable for questions.
