Keepers: Hiring the Right People (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798270398910)

I went through 26 employees. 26 employees hired and fired over the course of five years. In that time, I was approached by the Job Corps people with candidates for work, by who knows how many walk-ins, and by people responding to ads in the newspaper. Some lacked the talent to be trained for even low-lever jobs. Just what it is in certain people that make them stand out, that make them valuable assets to a company or organization? From day one they set themselves apart, then quickly make themselves invaluable and integral parts of your business or organization.

I've been disappointed more than once. Resumes that looked good failed to guarantee a successful new hire. I have hired a couple of people whose resumes included very high-end work for some exclusive clients. Within two weeks of working in my shop I could see they were not going to work out. Back when I managed a medium-sized office, I experienced the same - people who, on paper, were eminently qualified, possessing years of education and experience. But in real life, in the setting I had for them, they were either immediate or ultimate failures.

I guarantee you will benefit from my misunderstandings, mistakes, and missteps. Keepers will show you what to look for, how to know if you've found the right people, and when to make them a part of your company.
