Are you a small company? Do you lack in-house HR with hiring expertise? You need to revamp your hiring model. Either you’re hiring on the cheap and getting mostly B-players, or you’re paying too much for a headhunter who cares more about his own commission than placing the right candidate in the position.
We’ve been successful helping companies hire A-Players quickly – not by taking shortcuts, but by doing the steps they don’t do well. It is at a low fixed price and the company remains in control.

*Some may feel that onboarding doesn’t belong here, but you don’t have a good hire until he is integrated into the team.
The interviewers need to get some training before they interview, but they should do the interviewing. The hiring manager should do the reference checks, because she needs to know the good and the bad before the offer and needs insight into managing the new hire.
Whether you are hiring many quickly or just one periodically, this process will deliver better employees at a cheaper price than other means. We call this the Perfect Hire Blueprint.
