Is your business hiring right now?

As the market continues to challenge companies to hire the best people, there are a couple things you can do to stand out.

- look at your company culture. Why are people leaving? Do you have a manager who isn’t doing a great job? Do you show employees you appreciate them? Do you have clear expectations? Turnover will always happen but look inside first to ensure your company is a place people will want to be at.

- be clear about the job you’re hiring for. So often with small businesses employees wear many hats. They could be responsible for customer service, making/ doing the product or service, ordering supplies and marketing. To hire someone new, be clear on what exactly the person will be doing and what you need is.

- create a good job posting. Job postings should excite people. Candidates want to know about your company, your mission and what they will be doing. Keep the posting short and upbeat. Leave the full job description for later in the hiring process.

- maximize your network. Post your job opening on social media and in your store. Ask employees for referrals or create a referral incentive. Ask people around you if they know anyone who could be a good fit. Those who know of your company already will be the best hires.
