Assessment & Curated Hiring Podcast Playlist Yes, Send It To Me! Congratulations! You identified a skill gap in your business, went through your finances with a fine-toothed comb, and decided you want to make a new hire to fill that gap and complete your team.

You’re transparent on the exact position you want to fill and what their duties and responsibilities will be. You’re on your way to finding the right A-player that is going to fit in with your workplace culture, perform well, and help grow your business. But wait!

How are you going to find them? How on Earth are you going to attract top talent and make your small business stand out as a great employer among all the corporate giants out there so they choose to work for you? You’re going to need to recruit high-performers, interview them using expert strategies, and make them an attractive offer that’s hard to refuse.

Hiring is a skillset gap in itself for many small business owners,



partly because you’re not hiring machines; you’re hiring people. So, just as much as you want A-players on your team, people want to work for A-employers which can be very subjective.

Pay rate might be one person’s priority, health insurance benefits another, flexible scheduling another, and working from home another. You don’t want to lose out on unicorn employees because of mixed messaging or dying on a hill you really don’t care that much about. That’s where great recruiting and hiring skills come in.

In this episode of the Small Business Straight Talk Podcast, I sit down with the Co-Founder of Integrate-Up, Laura Couvillon, to dive into the wisdom, strategy, and negotiation skills it takes to successfully recruit high-performers and hire the right A-players to your dream team who actually fit your culture.
