Get your opening in front of the right candidates.
You've posted a job ad and received resumes from applicants who are interested. What's next? Hopefully, you've sorted these submissions into yes, no, and maybe piles, so now it's time to conduct interviews. In this course, we'll go over the interview process. We'll
include how to do a screening interview over the phone, how to determine who should do the interviewing, and how to pitch your company. We also cover what questions to ask to really get to know the candidates and their qualifications. And lastly, we'll discuss
checking references and extending an offer.
Getting your new hire set up for success is perhaps the most critical step in hiring someone into your small business. From getting proper paperwork completed, to making introductions, to training them on all of their job duties, there's a lot to accomplish. In this course, we'll walk you through everything you need to know to get someone successfully onboarded. We'll discuss what needs to be done before the first day, on the first day, as well as what should be completed within the first 30 days.
