The onboarding process does not end when the employee signs the new hire paperwork. Onboarding includes everything before and after that point, from the interview to the training process and it should be taken just as seriously for the employer as for the employee. Studies have shown that for a 100-person company with an average salary of $60,000, the turnover replacement cost could range from $750,000 to $3 million. That is not an amount to be taken lightly. Check out our suggestions for an effective onboarding process that will make for a successful future! […]

‘Job Hopping’ is defined as an individual who has held multiple job titles at multiple different companies in a short period of time. In 2023, inflation has caused over 90% of employees to seek alternate employment, in search of a compensatory salary. A potential employer may be less inclined to offer you an interview, let alone a job if your resume indicates ‘job hopper’. To remedy this, recent job postings are demanding candidates have no more than 3 jobs in the last 10 years. Is a higher salary in the interim worth potentially damaging your long-term career growth?

Our staffing services can be just what your business needs when searching for qualified individuals to fill your open roles. Increasing employee demands that cannot always be accommodated by their employer creates a problem. Recent studies show ‘The Great Resignation’ is quickly becoming ‘The Great Regret’ as 80% of participants regret their decision to leave. In fact, many workers report returning to their previous employer, requesting their position back. How will employers mitigate their (likely) hasty resignation and consider rehiring versus incoming qualified candidates? The assistance of a recruiter can be of immense satisfaction in keeping the hiring process as [...]

Interviewing for a new role can be nerve-racking, to say the least. It’s like going on a first date – trying to find a balance between saying the right things while simultaneously being yourself. It’s important to feel as prepared as possible to alleviate your angst and (hopefully) conclude the interview with a potential job offer. A great way to put your best foot forward is to have a general idea of the interview questions that could be asked and mindfully prepare your answer ahead of time. […]

Even the best routine can become monotonous, and there are only so many times you can sit with your cup of coffee on the same couch, watching the same show, before it loses its flare. Arguably the most common protest of working remotely is the seclusion it institutes, and employees are questioning whether their petition for remote work was worth dodging the bumper-to-bumper commute. If you’re feeling your routine has become stale and the perks of working remotely are slowly diminishing, you may need to switch things up. We’ve compiled a list of ways to [...]

In many recruitment processes, employers narrow down the applicant pool before scheduling interviews by conducting phone screens. Not to be confused with a phone interview, phone screens occur after employers and hiring managers have reviewed resumes and cover letters. Typically, those who appear to be qualified for the position will be phone screened and potentially invited to schedule an interview thereafter. While it’s not an interview, it is a sign that you may be qualified for one or more available positions. […]
