Summary
On this episode of the Jered Williams Show, the hosts discuss their new and improved hiring process to address the challenge of finding good technicians, CSRs, and managers in the current labor market. They share their experience with the traditional hiring approach and how it often led to hiring the wrong candidates. To address this, they have implemented a hiring event model that involves a multi-step filtering process, including an initial application, RSVP, and in-person event. This allows them to quickly assess a larger pool of candidates and identify those who align with the company's core values of "Be an Asset" and "Don't Be an Asshole." The hosts also discuss their plans to develop an apprenticeship program to provide structured training and career progression opportunities for new hires. Additionally, they highlight upcoming industry events, such as the Death Walk and Home Service Hoorah, which offer valuable networking and learning experiences for home service business owners.
