9. The Role of Human Resources
• Customer service
– Employees are your customer
• Trust
– Be consistent
– Be fair
– Be available
– Involve employees when you can
12. Components of an Audit Plan
• Scope: What you will cover
• Logistics: How and where you’ll get the information
• Timeline: When you will audit what, when you will need
employees for interviews, deadlines, etc.
15. Steps
1. Update job description (i.e., do a job analysis)
2. Develop interview questions
3. Write a job advertisement
4. Recruit
5. Hire the best candidate
16. Conduct a Job Analysis
• Interview current employees
• Interview supervisors
• Interview CEO and anyone who interacts with that
position
• Observe people in their job
• Send out questionnaires
• Request work logs
17. What Belongs in a Job Description
• Position summary / scope of work
• Essential job functions (ADA)
• Nonessential functions / duties and responsibilities
• Required knowledge, skills and experience
• Minimum qualifications (education and experience)
• Financial accountability
• Organizational relationships (who reports to who)
• Physical demands and work environment
• FLSA status (i.e., exempt or nonexempt)
18. Essential Job Functions
What tasks are truly necessary or required to do that job?
Consider:
• The frequency of those tasks
• The consequences if those tasks aren’t performed, and
whether that would be detrimental, and
• Whether those tasks can be redesigned or reassigned
19. Behavior Based Interview Questions
• Instead of: “How would you deal with an irate
customer?”
• Try: “Tell me about a time you had to deal with an irate
customer. Describe the circumstances in detail, the
actions you took, and the outcome of your actions. Tell
me what the results were. What did you learn?”
22. Key Things to Remember
• Job descriptions are internal – they are the instruction
manual
• Job advertisements are external – they are the
marketing pamphlet
• Recruiting is about marketing to candidates – it is not a
legal document or binding contract
23. Writing a Job Advertisement
• Attention grabbing question or statement
• How position impacts organization
• Provide information about your organization, company
culture and work environment
• Provide information about the job duties (e.g., coaching
new sales team members into greatness)
• Minimum requirements

26. Recruiting
• Post a job advertisement, NOT the job description
• Provide a link to a video about your company
• Include the minimum requirements; don’t get caught up
in all the compliance stuff
• Be creative
27. Creative Recruiting
• Go beyond online job boards
• Mine for candidates on LinkedIn, etc
• Advertise where the right people might be
• Find them – don’t hope they find you

29. Measure Recruiting Efforts
• Keep track of where you put your efforts
• Determine how many quality applicants you get from that
effort
• Determine if you should continue recruiting there
31. Hire
• Make the call and get their commitment
• Send offer letter – include:
– title, salary, benefits, vacation, holidays, perks, employment is
at-will, deadline for written acceptance
– ensure written in a tone that matches your culture
32. Hire
• Once offer letter returned, send new hire packet
– personalized welcome from CEO
– consent forms
– corporate values
– code of conduct
– policy handbook
– anything related to culture
35. Onboarding
• Think about your first day of work… what was it like?
• Now think about what could have been done better.
36. Onboarding Ideas
• Email welcome video from the team and an agenda
outlining first day, first week, first few months, before the
first day
• Buddy system
• Scheduling interviews with key players
• Put together a “survival basket”
• Spend time discussing company history
• Anything that indoctrinates the employee into CULTURE
44. Final Tips on Improving Performance
Everyone’s job is different… so why are you using the
same performance evaluation for everyone?
Performance evaluation forms go with job descriptions like
“his and her towels.”
45. Final Tips on Improving Performance
Performance evaluations should measure against:
• Items from the job description
• Corporate values
And should include:
• Specific examples of what employee is doing well
• Resources and timeframe for improvement
46. Final Tips on Improving Performance
Each year before the evaluations process, managers
should be re-trained on giving evaluations.
Remember performance conversations should happen
All. Year. Long.
