Hiring Seasonal Workers w/ Jim Buchanan, Cadient Talent

The HR Gazette Season 1 Episode 226

As we embrace the holiday season, hourly hiring is beginning to increase to meet the seasonal demands. But with 65% of hourly employees only giving their temporary employers one week’s notice or less – how do you find qualified candidates that want to stay for the full holiday season or beyond?

In this HRchat episode, we consider this seasonal dilemma.  Our guest to help us do just that, and spread a bit of seasonal cheer, is Jim Buchanan, CEO of Cadient Talent, the North Carolina based end-to-end hiring solution for distributed workforces.

Decreasing employee turnover can improve a team’s morale by nearly 40%. "One way this can be accomplished, explains Jim, "is by creating a user-friendly and intuitive recruiting system to find qualified candidates, seasonally or not. For instance, using analytics and assessments to help find employee applications that match qualities and characteristics from the company’s best performing employees."
