Where Have Your Best Hires Come From?

1/18/2024

We put the question back to you in the DYOJO Podcast audience - where have some of your best hires come from?

Some people hire from the franchise system thinking, "Well, if I'm in this franchise system, and they're in this franchise system, they could plug and play." Has this worked for you?

A lot of contractors try to hire someone who has worked for a competitor. Expecting that they have some experience that will set everyone on the right foot. What have your results been with re-hires?

I've shared many times before that my personal preference is I'd rather train new habits than retrain old habits. In this episode, I share some examples of doing this at multiple levels in a construction organization. From the technician level, superintendent, project manager, and even at the estimator level. This is what has worked best for my teams.

Hear more about this process of recruiting, hiring, developing, and retaining quality young professionals in The DYOJO Podcast Episode 112.
