Traditional approaches to hiring no longer work in today's downsized, technology-driven, globalized business world, and the hiring process has become more complicated than ever before. In this latest addition to the Fast Forward MBA series, Max Messmer, head of Robert Half International--the world's largest specialized staffing firm--explains why the difference between hiring a merely adequate employee and a "star" has less to do with how much money you spend on recruitment and everything to do with your hiring strategy. Messmer's book is a comprehensive guide for navigating complex hiring issues, including determining staffing needs, developing job descriptions, and recruiting, evaluating, retaining and training employees--it's all here in a well-organized handbook. Contains innovative tactics and savvy, real-world advice for locating, selecting, and keeping your most vital resource--people. Addresses crucial issues such as reference checking, employee testing, work-life, and others that are rapidly transforming the traditional workplace and its demands. Max Messmer (Menlo Park, CA) is Chairman and CEO of Robert Half International, Inc., and a widely quoted expert on hiring.
