Adrianne Meldrum is back today to talk about her process for hiring and retaining great staff. This episode is going to be particularly helpful for those of you with growing practices, but I think there are lots of nuggets for anyone who may be hiring, even at a small scale. I personally took away several solid ideas for improving our hiring and onboarding processes, and I’m sure that you will too. Here are a few things we touch on:

  • The five mistakes many of us make in hiring
  • Creating a positive “first 90 days” for new hires
  • The best places to find new hires
  • Using the DISC assessment in the hiring process
  • Cool Things Mentioned

    • The Testing Psychologist mastermind groups and business consulting

                About Dr. Jeremy Sharp

                I’m a licensed psychologist and Clinical Director at the Colorado Center for Assessment & Counseling, a private practice that I founded in 2009 and have grown to over 20 clinicians. I earned my undergraduate degree in Experimental Psychology from the University of South Carolina before getting my Master’s and PhD in Counseling Psychology from Colorado State University. These days, I specialize in psychological and neuropsychological evaluation with kids and adolescents.

                As the host of the Testing Psychologist Podcast, I provide private practice consulting for psychologists and other mental health professionals who want to start or grow psychological testing services in their practices. I live in Fort Collins, Colorado with my wife (also a therapist) and two young kids.
