So...need to hire the next new round of employees, between the several different companies, 28 people in total. Sounds easy enough, ran ads looking for employees, lots applied, I have basically been calling people to start with for five, almost full days...it is horrifying how unprofessional many are, but they claim to be wanting work. Occasionally I get one that sounds good on the phone, so I arrange a time with them, for a face to face interview. So far I've called 92, and only arranged to meet six, and just met that sixth one. He showed up late, stinking of alcohol, and hungover. Of the six meetings, hired just two women. Why oh why, is it so damn hard to hire competent employees.
