A common tale among business owners is how difficult it is to find the right people. Thankfully our guest this week knows all of the tricks of the trade to help you make the right hiring choices. Natasha Hawker is an old hand in the recruitment game. Her company, Emloyee Matters, works with clients across Australia, the UK, US and Asia to find the best candidates. She’s also written the highly acclaimed book, “From Hire to fire”.   See some of Natasha’s top tips below: **  Your employees are your greatest assets, but they’re also your greatest liability. **  Do what you can to avoid using agencies. If you’ve focused your role and offering well enough, you should find the right candidates. **  Get your job advert right. No spelling mistakes! **  Don’t get stuck on the idea of just one interview. You should do a phone screen first, then an interview specific to the role, and then an interview to understand the values of the candidate. **  Don’t go over the top when selling your own organisation. If you give too much away to your candidate then you won’t get a true understanding of their preparation. **  Even if you’re a small business, think long and hard about your extra offerings for a job, i.e. working from home, healthcare etc. **  Don’t assume your future employees will come by simply replying to your adverts. Natasha finds 50% of her candidates by approaching them cold.   In this episode of Business Brain Food you will learn: **  What makes people nervous about recruitment **  The pros and cons of recruitment agencies **  The different sourcing channels available **  The active V passive market **  What makes a great job description **  The flexibility needed to attract good employees **  Talent banking explained **  How to structure your interviews   Resources mentioned in this episode: **  Would you like to join MaxMyProfit as a Business Excellerator?
