MSCI Webinar: How to Identify, Interview, and Hire the Right People
Thursday, November 29, 1:00-2:15 pm CST

Making the right hiring decisions is a critical aspect of running a successful business. Unfortunately, many companies struggle with the consequences of bad hiring decisions, including: repeated errors and mistakes, decreased productivity, unhappy customers, workplace conflict, disrupted company culture, and high turnover. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone.

Did you know that:

• 95% of employers admit to suffering from at least one bad hire every year
• An estimated 80% of employee turnover is caused by bad hires
• The typical cost to replace an employee is 21% of their annual salary

As these eye-opening statistics reveal, bad hiring decisions are both costly and commonplace. But the true impact of a bad hiring decision extends well beyond measurable costs; the rippling effect is also seen in decreased work production, inefficiency, resentment by co-workers, damaged customer relationships, wasted management time, and lower employee morale.

It doesn’t have to be this way. Your company can minimize bad hiring decisions by adopting methods and using strategies that will help to identify and hire people who will thrive in their positions and your culture. As a result, your company can reduce disruption and employee turnover, promote loyalty and high performance, and save money!
