Before hiring an applicant for a job position, an organization goes through a step-by-step process to find the most qualified candidate to fill the role. Though a search can take time, a rushed hire can lead to additional staff turnover and missed opportunity costs. A bad hire can cost you 30% of the employee’s first year salary, but also staff morale and reputation. By investing in a thorough and detailed hiring process, a hiring staff can make the right decisions and bring in talented professionals who will help the company grow. Every business is unique and may need additional information and filings when hiring. We have compiled a list of resources to help you with the hiring process and the forms that are needed when hiring a new employee.
