This might be the biggest rookie hiring mistake ever — it definitely is something we all can relate to – and I don't know of one leader that at some point in their career hasn't done this! Here's the problem with this mistake: ... Hope is not an effective strategy. The vast majority of managers and executives hang onto to staff far beyond the point of rational thinking. You then rationalize all the excuses and explanations for not taking action sooner. How many times has your team come to you and said "what took you so long" after you let someone go who had not been performing for a very long time? - Barry Deutsch

Given today's talent marketplace, many companies are being far too selective in the candidates they are seeking.

Trainers have applied those words to all sorts of training exercises, generally in business. Why are they universally understood? The quote applies to all areas of our lives. It especially applies to .... My observation is that most companies don't have a recruiting plan. Recruiting in most organizations falls into one of two camps: Camp #1: Let's run ads and sit back passively waiting for the right candidate to fall into our lap. This is a strategy based on luck and hope. Camp #2: Let's throw some "s___" against the wall and hope - perhaps pray - something works. When it doesn't work, let's rinse and repeat because we don't know what else to do. Another great effective strategy for recruiting. Is it any wonder why most companies struggle to hire - without a solid best practice-based recruiting strategy your doomed to bring average, mediocre, minimally qualified candidates to the table every time. - Barry Barry Deutsch Partner IMPACT Hiring Solutions http://www.impacthiringsolutions.com/Blog Have you read our FREE book - You're NOT the Person I Hire?

The book author calls his issue "employee attitude". I look at these same things as basic values, character, and core traits. These are not the most important elements of hiring - but one of the key areas. For example, the ability to deliver the expected outcomes is also critical along with organizational and team cultural fit. So many "authors" try to claim their one idea or approach is the "solution" to hiring problems. The key is really implementing a series of hiring best practices that cover performance, behavior, and fit. - Barry Deutsch

When bringing new people on, think about the big picture. How they will fit in? How will they enhance retention? All too often we base our assumption on whether people will "fit" on how they acted during the interview.
