The real cost of a bad hire and how to avoid it

Hiring the wrong person can cost you more than just time and money; it can knock the wind out of your culture and momentum. So how do you make sure you get it right?

In this episode of Broker Bulletin, Preet Samra, Managing Director of Grow and Co Finance, opens up about the lessons she’s learnt from getting recruitment wrong and what she’s done to fix it.

Chatting with Loan Market’s Head of Business Performance, Michael Karpathakis, Preet shares how she built a hiring process that works, why culture fit matters just as much as capability, and how she keeps her team involved every step of the way.

Preet’s lessons learned in recruitment:

• Don’t wait to hire until you need the extra hands
• A first hire should immediately add value
• Actively manage your underperformers
