I am thrilled to report that we have hired a temporary, part-time data entry person, making my life much easier and less complicated. We have also hired a new recruiter to join a new division we are starting. It's all very glamorous and exciting. My only concern is this: How long will this recruiter stay?
This may seem very pessimistic of me, but we seem to have a very low retention rate. Some of this is due to the market and some of it is due to the fact that some people just don't like recruiting. I understand that. What is frustrating for me is the amount of effort that goes into getting a new person set up and helping them adjust to our company policies, and then watching them leave. Frankly, I'm not sure what to do about it.
But it is exciting to get new people. They always have a different perspective on things. I always find new ways to improve my own work when we get new people, so I'm happy about it.
Wish us luck!
