Note: this how to hire the right person podcast was originally posted October 5. Technology somehow through a wrench in the audio. This is a must-listen - thanks for your patience as we resurrected the audio file. How can you hire the right person every time? If you’ve ever hired the wrong person, or struggled to even find a few solid candidates to interview, then this is your episode. If you’re going it solo, a part of a team, you’re on Main street, deliver services, or you’re online definitely take a listen to this podcast. I recently had this conversation with my best friend who has more than 35 years of experience hiring and between the two of us we’ve been hiring, training, firing or being quit for a hundred years! Yikes! We both agreed this is still one of the hardest things to get right. So if you want to earn from our mistakes and from my guest today… pop your ear buds in or turn it up because you are going to need a team if you’re going to grow and make a difference. No one does it alone. My guest today is Claire Garrigan.
