Finding, Hiring, and Keeping the BEST Retail Employees!

Attracting and keeping good people has become one of retailing's most difficult challenges. In recent years, downsizing, layoffs, and a difficult economy had lots of people looking for work. And for the first time in many years, retailers had plenty of applicants from whom to choose and the opportunity to be very selective when hiring new employees.

Here we are in the 21st century and the situation is significantly different. With the national unemployment rate at 5% and even lower in some areas of the country, retailers must work harder and be far more creative in order to attract and keep good people.

The fact is, successful companies employ the best, hardest working, and most dedicated people. Every step retailers take to find, hire, and keep the best employees will pay off in lower costs, improved productivity, better customer service, and increased sales.

Whether hiring full-time or part-time employees, this practical "how to" seminar gives retailers the tools they need not only to find, hire, and keep the best people but to create a motivational climate where good people work best.

Seminar Covers:

• How to identify the best retail employees.
