In this conversation, Dr. Duncan and Kelsey discuss the second half of the hiring funnel, the 11-step hiring process that Dr. Duncan has developed for her chiropractic clinic. Dr. Duncan emphasizes the importance of having a systematic hiring process and the value of using a hiring funnel. She breaks down steps 6 through 11 of the hiring funnel, from the in-person interview to giving the job offer. Dr. Duncan covers topics such as reference checks, personality tests, background checks and drug screens, and the overall importance of having a hiring system.

TAKEAWAYS

Having a well-defined hiring system can ultimately save time and money and lead to successful hires.

The hiring funnel helps streamline the hiring process and ensures that candidates are thoroughly evaluated.

The in-person interview allows the employer to assess the candidate's body language, professionalism, and fit with the team.

Shadowing and test assignments provide an opportunity to evaluate the candidate's skills and compatibility with the clinic.

Informing candidates of the remaining steps in the hiring process helps manage their expectations and keeps them engaged.

Thorough reference checks are essential and should be conducted on EVERY candidate that makes it to the bottom of the hiring funnel.

Personality tests can provide valuable insights into candidates' problem-solving skills and personality traits.

Background checks and drug screens are crucial to ensure the safety and integrity of the clinic. Performing these are non-negotiables BEFORE hire.

Job offers should be made with clear communication and an expiration date to prompt timely responses from candidates.
