Do you need to hire someone but don’t know where to start? How do you avoid making common hiring mistakes? Is hiring someone even possible without stress, tears, and sleepless nights? Throw your worries aside, because I have a simple step-by-step guide to make the whole hiring process painless!
I’ve made a lot of hiring mistakes. Hiring people who were too much like me. Hiring someone who wasn’t qualified or experienced in the areas that I needed support in. Hiring the first person I spoke to out of desperation! I’ve made the mistakes and learned from them, so you don’t have to make the same mistakes I did.
So here are the steps to hiring a new team member or assistant:
1. Make a wishlist of what you want that person to do.
2. Get over the mindset that you won’t find someone.
3. Write a job description.
4. Share the ad.
5. Interview multiple candidates.
6. Set your chosen candidates a trial task, or employ them on a trial basis.
7. Give them feedback.
P.S. If it’s not a good fit, let them go! And sooner, rather than later!
I have lots of tips, techniques, and advice about how to take the stress, worry, and pain out of the hiring process, so be sure to tune in to this episode of It Girl Radio.
Easy enough? Put these steps to the test! If you’re thinking about hiring a new assistant or team member, do use this guide in your hiring process. As always, I’d love to hear how this guide works out for you to hire someone to support you in your business!
