How can it be that Indeed’s postings are up by 13% over the month before the pandemic? Or the Wall Street Journal predicts unemployment will dip to 3.2% by year end? As the number of candidates drops, it’s easy to become less picky…and being less picky leads to higher early turnover. The solution is to implement new ideas both before and after hire, to increase the number of candidates who CAN do the job and will STAY. Embracing fresh thinking requires doubling employee referrals, screening short-termers out with realistic job previews and commitment-enhancing job offers, implementing stay interviews, and then driving retention accountability with recruiters, trainers, and supervisors. Solutions are here for you!
