  1. IMO arguing left vs right is pointless, don't people realize no matter left or right that politicians will end up fucking it up?

  3. The True Cost of a New Hire


    I spend a lot of time talking to people about the real cost of a new hire. Often times I start by pointing out the obvious “hard costs”: advertising costs, background checking, interviewing. But beyond these quantifiable costs there are many other “soft” costs that are regularly overlooked.


    Recently, a company was looking to hire a senior client services associate with a salary of $40,000. Here is a breakdown of how that company’s time was spent:
    •Developing a job description: three hours
    •Placing calls to people within the staff members’ professional networks in search of a suitable candidate: five hours
    •Posting the position internally and on the company Web site: 20 minutes
    •Responding to the 50 résumés received and conducting 10 phone interviews: five hours
    •Sorting résumés into various skill categories: three hours
    •Inputting résumés into the company’s database: two hours
    “Although the company was strategic in its search, they spent nearly 20 hours and did not find a suitable candidate.



    According another source, an article by Will Helmlinger of the The Resource Development Group, “the cost to replace one Customer Service Representative earning $18,000 annually is nearly $58,000″.
