ground up is not easy To help mitigate any

conflicts or problems, it is important that you have established a team that will support you every step

of the way

PROBLEMS OF TURNOVER

will be turnover and new

hires; that is just part of

the game The one thing

you can control is the

people coming in

Remember, having a

cohesive culture within

every member of your

team will play a large role

to your overall success

1 LONG TERM INVESTMENT

• The biggest downfall you can see in a company is finding

large amount of turnover When interviewing a client, gage if the client is willing to stay at the company for a long period

of time You can do so by asking the following questions:

is passionate and

enthusiastic about what

they do will make all the

difference in the overall

work culture People who

come in with a positive

attitude are often found to

be more committed to the

company and provide

much to the work

environment.

• No matter what position they are in, you want your fellow co-workers to work as a well-oiled machine This is a

cliché phrase, but it represents the collectiveness of the vision, ambition, and work ethics you are expecting your fellow workers in every aspect of the work place This will make all the difference in every situation of the workday

but the idea of putting their skills into action There

will of course be a learning curve in any new job or

position You want to make sure that this candidate

not only has the abilities to learn these skills, but also putting those skills into action to be successful

5 AMBITION

• Every business wants to hire motivated and driven

professionals who will go

above and beyond what is

asked from them These

ambitious individuals are the best hard workers you can ask for They learn not just to be adaptable for the 9 to 5

hours, but to improve their

work day-in and day-out as

they make great quality work for whatever project you give them

6 RESPONSIVENESS

• Being a responsive candidate is more than just

showing up and greeting everyone in the office

good morning Beyond these social interaction

skills, you need to find someone who can be

responsive to all aspects of the job These types of workers are ones that are incredibly proactive in

learning and furthering the quality of their work

Finding a candidate of this caliber will eventually give your company and your business a strong

foundation for success.
