In next week's No Fear Hiring session, our guest Katherine Englander of HRP4B will speak about the technical elements of being ready to hire - the necessary paperwork, forms, payroll, and various government departments you must navigate. You must learn #allthethings when you find yourself prepared for your first employee. It can be overwhelming, and we want you to feel prepared well before you need to post that figurative "Help Wanted" sign.
Let's touch on a few best practices to consider when hiring.  
  1. Don't hire someone who simply looks good on paper. You want to ensure applicants are a good fit for your team, so get to know them before making a hiring decision.
  2. Don't make a hasty decision. Take time interviewing a few candidates to find the right person for the job.
  3. Remember to consider the importance of a job description and job duties. Make sure you clearly understand what you expect from the role so you can make sure the candidate is a good fit.
  4. Pay attention to the importance of a background check. Ensure you know any potential red flags that indicate the candidate isn't a good fit for the job.
  5. Remember to communicate with the candidate. Make sure to clearly outline your expectations, job duties, and company culture to ensure the candidate is well-informed before accepting the job.
