One of the major problems my company has is finding good employees. I was wondering
1. If anyone has tried anything besides advertising on Craigslist or in the local paper to find good help.
2. How you guys create loyalty in your guys so that they stay and don't leave for the next so called better deal or start their own tree services.
I put ads in the paper and all I get are the guys who have washed out of everywhere else. And when I hire one of those wash out guys I can't rely on them staying long. I have also carried guys through the winer and had them leave to do their own work as soon as the season hits.
We offer:
Competitive Wages
100% paid Health Insurance after 3 mo.
401K with employer match after 6mo.
2 weeks paid vaca after 1 year
Quarterly bonuses between $0-one weeks pay based on performance
Optional unlimited overtime at time and a half
We require:
A driver License
ISA Cert
