Did you ever think hiring security guards would be so hard? Probably not. You probably thought "people wanna work, right?" Well, the answer is, yes people do want to work but a hell of a lot more don't. Have you ever ran an ad in a local paper and got 13 responses, set up an interview process and two guys show; or have you not gotten that far yet? Or have you gotten that far and had to hire the two "idiots" because the job starts tomorrow. Have you ever paid $419 for a Career Builder ad and got thirty responses only to come to the realization that not one person knows who you are when you call? That's because Career Builder is filled with resume' spammers. They send their resume' out to hundreds of companies, sometimes per night. So here you are calling back thinking they want to work for your company, and they don't even know who you are. These people are easy to identify because they ask a lot of questions and usually hang up when they here something they don't like. Best advice is to use Craig's List or Indeed. I now use them all the time and find most people that use Craig's List are looking for work. I pay around twenty five dollars and always fill the job. Now, I'm not saying I haven't had to hire some "idiots", I'm just saying there has been times I have been grateful for those "idiots". Many times they will give you a few weeks before they start screwing you over or go postal, usually just enough time to get some good workers permanently. I hope this helps those thinking of not taking a job because the fear of not being able to fill it.
For Companies in the US, we recommend posting your job openings on Craigs List & Indeed
