3 simple things to remember every single time you hire: 1. Don’t discriminate - Hire the right person. 2. Go where they are - Find your ideal fit. 3. Be committed - Hire slow. Many people are so eager to fill a seat that they jump the gun. Quality over speed always wins. #hiring #hr

Employee retention is simple but not easy. It takes time. this is a start. ✅ Offer Competitive Pay- it's an investment, not an expense ✅ Give Pay Increases regardless of budget constraints (it's cheaper than hiring someone new) ✅ Offer Better Benefits (Health, Dental and 401k with match are the basics; get creative) ✅ Be flexible (people have options now) ✅ Consider changing the company culture to be more Inclusive for ALL people, not just certain groups. ✅ Opportunities for advancement/ learning and development (promote them or another company will) ✅ Hire better Leaders (a bad one will run off the good ones quicker than anything else) ✅ Ask employees what they need and work to provide or communicate why their needs cannot be met. If you cannot provide everything on this list, please stop expecting candidates to meet all of your hiring requirements. Be Fair. Did I miss anything? #employeeretention #hiring #saasrecruiting

How do you keep your best performers? It’s so important to keep your best staff happy, especially in such a fast-moving market. If you’re not keeping them happy, there’s lots of businesses out there that will! From speaking to people recently, here are a few things I’ve learned that can help with this: ✔ Putting clear and realistic development plans in place. The best employees will always want to develop and see where they can get to. ✔ Fair pay rises where possible. This is especially relevant given everything we’re seeing now. ✔ Putting employee well-being first. Are there any extra benefits or well-being initiatives you can introduce to really make staff feel valued? ✔ Hybrid working. If your staff don’t need to be in the office all the time, why not let them do days at home? When partnering with businesses at StormX Recruitment - Accountancy & Finance/HR/ Office Support Specialist Recruiters, we don’t just work with you on vacancies, we also consult with you on other topics like staff retention.
