The 2014 guide to Applicant Screening
With the state of the economy, desperation and fraud have been flooding the job market; as more and more candidates apply for positions, your chances of a bad hire continuously increase. A bad hire can lead to loss of profit, wasted resources and time most employers don’t have to spare. Many employers underestimate the cost of a bad hire but studies have proven the minimum cost could be devastating.
A study done by CareerBuilder.com in 2012 showed that 69 percent of employers reported their organizations were negatively impacted by a bad hire. Of that 41 percent of those businesses estimated the cost of a bad hire to be over $25,000. Even worse – 24 percent of employers reported the cost to be over $50,000.
With that said, applicant screening is not only important but necessary in today’s workplace. By properly screening applicant’s you can gain insight on the candidate’s credentials and background that can potentially save you from hiring a costly mistake.
