title: How to recruit, interview, and retain employees.
abstract: Decide how you will recruit new employees and place your advertisements. Screen the resumes and select the applicants to interview. Prepare yourself for the interview by reviewing the job description and determining the qualities you are seeking and the questions required to gain the information you seek. Conduct the interview and followup. Select the final candidate, extend an offer, and establish a start date. Don't forget to notify unsuccessful candidates. Once the employee starts, orient her to the practice and set up a training schedule. Monitor her progress and develop a system of ongoing evaluation of her performance. Make sure you take the necessary steps to retain employees. Remember, hiring and firing employees is an expensive endeavor.
