How To Take Action

If you want to get better at hiring people, I’d suggest focusing on learning what makes a good hire for your business first. This way, you might be able to hire fast and not regret your choice later. You can do this by looking at the people who are thriving in your business and writing down what makes them great. Use this list to help you when you're looking for someone new to join your team.

For those who feel hiring isn't their strong suit, I’d advise taking it slow. Make sure to spend more time getting to know the candidates. Have multiple interviews, maybe even with different team members, so you can see if the person really fits what you need.

If you've never hired someone before or have had some trouble with it, don't be afraid to ask for help! Find a friend or another business owner who is really good at hiring and see if they can give you some tips or even help with your interviews.

When you're about to make a hiring decision, especially if you're new to it, stop and think about why you want to say yes to someone. Is it because they remind you of you? Or because they're truly the right fit for your team? Write down your reasons to make sure you're not just following a gut feeling that might be wrong.

Remember, getting good at hiring takes practice and learning from each experience, so don't be too hard on yourself if you don't get it perfect right away. Keep trying and improving, and you'll get the hang of it!
