Top 3 Reasons Why Your Next Hire Will Fail

Are you experiencing turnover?  Do you know why?  It's easy to blame the candidate.  Yet, is it possible that you, as the hiring manager, may have contributed to the reason why the candidate left or failed to perform?  If your company is experiencing a revolving door, it may be time to self-evaluate.  Below are three reasons why your next hire could fail: 

• Wrong Job Fit: Good candidate, yet ill-fitted for the role.
• No Onboarding/Training: Expecting candidates to "hit the road running" is unrealistic.     
• Poor Managers: Candidates value managers that mentor and coach. 

4 Reasons Why Companies Hire Wrong Candidates

Hiring the right talent for any company is the foundation of every business. Hiring the wrong person not only wastes time and money, it also creates a ripple of negativity that impacts every other employee--and therefore your company.  Here are six reasons why you hire the wrong people:

• Ignored red flags: If you notice something askew in an interview, check it out further.  
• Over-sold: Describe the position and the company in realistic terms.
• Hired friends and family: Don't overlook job fit just because you know them.
• In a hurry: Desperate hiring is doomed to fail.
