What’s the job?
Usually this is best practice
1. Make sure the job posting is somewhere where it’ll get seen by the most people. Indeed is a good site.
2. Make it more attractive than other jobs. Search and compare listings. Why would someone work for you for 30k a year when a competitor pays 50k and it’s the same type of work?
3. Get a lot of applications, be a stereotypical dick who assumes everyone’s lying. Do a video interview and see them to see if they’re a degenerate or not. Save yourself lots of time this way.
4. When hiring, explain all of the negatives upfront and confirm it’s okay with them. Can’t tell you how many times I’ve hired people to mow lawns in Washington state and they said after I hired them that they didn’t think we would work in the rain. “Gtfo you stupid F*cking idiot it’s an outdoor job in Washington of course it’s going to rain”. Talk about things upfront and save yourself a bunch of time.
5. Important: confirm the pay schedule and when you give raises beforehand. Shitty employees asking for a $2 raise one week into the job happens all the time. So every time I hire people I let them know “there’s no raises for the first few months and if things work out they can expect a dollar an hour raise but no more within the year, and there’s no promises, only for people who deserve it. Sound good?”
6. Hiring liberals is usually a mistake. They all belong to the r/antiwork subreddit, they think capitalism (YOU, the boss) is shitty and they aren’t getting a fair shake, they will report you if not all of your stupid employment posters are posted in the right places and shit. You want to hire people with a firm handshake who don’t have purple hair, you want people who wear Romeo’s and never call out sick for a ‘mental health day’. Blows my mind why companies haven’t figured this out. All major companies are having people strike, dealing with unions, quiet quitting, etc. could be easily avoided. Don’t hire shitty entitled wimps.
