Congratulations on making the decision to invest in a franchise. Now that you are in the driver’s seat of your location, it is time to start making decisions that will take your franchise to the next level, starting with your employees!

Our team at VetFran wants to help you make sure you are hiring the best employees for the job so that you can set your franchise up for success.

Make the Right Hire Every Time

Let’s take a look at some ways you can make sure you are making the best hire every time.

Commitment

When you hire someone, you want someone who has experience and knowledge within the role. However, that shouldn’t be the only thing you are looking for in a candidate. There are also other factors that should play a part when trying to hire the right person for the job.

For instance, you want someone who is committed to their career, their industry or their team. When you hire someone who is uncertain, there is no guarantee that they will be around for the long haul. They might end up changing their mind about their career path. And although you know you might have employees come and go, you don’t want to set your company up for that to happen at every turn.

Compatibility

In addition, you want someone that you are compatible with and that you can see yourself working well with. Is this candidate someone that you can respect and vice versa? If there is a disagreement, will you be able to work through the issue in a proper manner and come out stronger? It isn’t about getting along all the time, but it is about learning how to communicate when issues do arise.

Willingness to Learn

Again, experience is important. However, it shouldn’t be everything. You also want someone who is willing to continue learning within the role. Is this potential employee willing to do what it takes? If the role were to change or their duties expand, would he or she be on board? Is he or she willing to grow with the company?

It is important to look at the overall candidate when making sure you are choosing the right person for the job.
