Hire the Right People for the Right Jobs
By: Lawrence Berry, CPM, Magic, Message and Motivation


Hiring the right people is probably the most important decision we can make.  Advertising for new team members, interviewing, and making sound hiring decisions is an area seldom taught, however, an area if overlooked can cause chaos.  It takes skill to hold and evaluate candidates in an interview process.  Ask the right question, to get the right answer.  Fail to ask the right question, and you may end up with surprises that can have dramatic effects on the bottom line of a community as well as the litigious side of the issue.  What practices and processes can we use to maximize the potential for sound hiring decisions?
