Recruiting and hiring are crazy hard these days.
In our recent Practice Manager Report which surveyed 683 practice managers in 49 states, recruiting and hiring was cited as the #1 challenge facing practices. That was true regardless of location or size.
While we can’t increase vet school enrollments or inspire more people to become vet techs, what we can do is offer our professional assistance with the recruiting and hiring process. So we asked our brilliant, hard-working iVET360 Human Resources & Training Team to share what they know.
The result is this incredible iVET360 Recruitment Tool Kit. It contains informative articles, templates, and how-to guides on everything from job ads to interviewing and hiring. Our hope is that this tool kit makes the recruitment process easier and more successful for you and your practice.
Job Ads
Write It Right
Job ads are no longer about what you want in an employee—they’re about why an employee would want to work for YOU. This guide contains tips and templates showing you how to refocus your ads so they not only attract candidates but also show why you’re the employer of choice in your area.
