When you work for yourself, you can often be used to managing yourself and just getting on with the work. But at some point, you may find that you really need to hire someone. You’ll get to the point where work is just too much to handle on your own. But when it’s time to bring someone on board, don’t freak out or worry that it’s too big of a task. The infographic below has some handy hacks for the entire process. But let’s consider three steps now.
Know Who and What You Need
First of all, you need to think about what kind of role you want to hire for. But not only that, it’s handy to know what kind of person you need to be able to feel supported too.
Interview
As you start to think about the people that are applying, you’ll want to shortlist and interview them. This part is so important, as you can often tell a lot about a person when you meet them. So really make use of this step.
Do A Killer Induction
And then finally, one of the last things that you will need to do, is to make sure that they have a great induction period with you. The last thing you want, is to find and hire the best possible person for the job, to then lose them because they’re not happy in the job. This is why an induction process can be largely beneficial for you both.
For all seven of the steps, take a look at the infographic below.
