Are there cracks in your screening process that let bad hires slip through? This data says: yes.
The US Department of Labor reported that 50% of all new employees are gone within the first six months on the job.
Seriously. Half of them.
And if that number isn't enough to rattle you, how about this: across the board, 80% of turnover can be attributed to some breakdown in the hiring decision.
Those hiring decisions are all about the screening process, and the most consequential aspect of that process is the interview. Therein lies the real issue ...
Interviews often span days or weeks with several people, each with their own approach. That means lots of opportunities for the process to break down. And when it does, bad hires slip through. You're left with wasted time, effort, money - and even worse - the opportunity cost a better hire would have provided.
