Abstract
Hiring the right employee is paramount to the success of any business. In 2019, with unemployment rates low and job openings high, hiring anyone might sound good. However, taking the time to find the right employee far outweighs the cost of replacing a bad or desperate hire. This article discusses the interviewing and onboarding process to shift the odds positively in the direction of making a lasting, good hire.
