Business

So many employers have done it. Hired someone who, on the day of their interview, seemed absolutely perfect for the job, then two months, two weeks or even two days after the new employee started, found themselves asking the question âÂÂdid I really employ you<â Estimates on how much it costs to replace an employee vary from 75% of the personâÂÂs salary to an alarming 24 times the personâÂÂs salary. Yet few managers and team leaders know how to recruit effectively. This book is designed to create a template for recruiting people at the front end of the organisation. Did I Really Employ You is a practical, easy-to-use manual for employers and human resource personnel that will help to select the right person for the job. Topics include designing the ideal candidate, defining the position and the results youâÂÂre looking for, using application forms to save time, and conducting effective job interviews. Employment contracts are very easy to get into but time consuming, costly and difficult to get out of. If you are recruiting for a particular position, you want to be able to get it right first time. Did I Really Employ You is a comprehensive guide to getting it right every time.
