IntelligentIT: September 2013

If you've ever owned or managed a business I'm sure you know a company is only as good as its staff. From executives to janitors every staff member is critical to a business. When a business is staffed with good employees a company with all of its individual departments functions like a well oiled machine. Good employees work efficiently and effectively as if their single-handed actions will propel the business to the next level of success.

What I just described is every business owner and manager's dream -- a "dream team" of employees who work seamlessly together doing their jobs without a hitch, and adding to the value of the company. Unfortunately unlike machinery where every part does exactly what it's intended to do, some employees end up being more of a hindrance like a wrench caught between gears causing partial or complete damage to the machine, especially in small businesses.

Anyone would guess that hiring the wrong employee will ~~potentially~~ without a doubt present challenges for a business, but very few people are aware of the consequences that come from hiring the wrong employee. Take a look at an article put together by the folks over at docstoc.com to learn what the Top 5 Negative Effects of Bad Hires are. I guarantee after reading the article, you'll have five good reasons why you won't rush the hiring process.
