If you’re laying off 50% of those you hire either your expectations are too high or your ability to gauge people is low

[@Richie3Jack]

I think this is mostly it. Or just a complete lack of patience. It takes some time to get acclimated with the business and how it's expected to be run. Even people with industry experience, if they've been off work for a while it just takes time to get back into the groove. And people make mistakes. I question his patience and if they repeatedly fail after a while he's probably putting them in a position to fail because he's tested these people and they test well so they can't be completely dumb. And in all likelihood the work conditions and pay aren't very good. That stuff sets a bad tone and people aren't exactly thrilled to come into work for a boss that has unrealistic expectations, no patience, isn't willing tor reasonably remedy the issue and pays like crap with your standard 2-week PTO and other benefits.

[@airforcerymer15]

I've hired dozens of people and it's true, I fire more than 50%...The problem is you don't really know how they will be as employees till you get them to work...its not just about the qualifications and prior experience

[@FrankS111]

@@airforcerymer15 I’m an engineering manager and I disagree. If you’re firing over half of the people you hire then either you lied on the job description, have too high expectations, or cannot read people’s personalities. Not everyone will work out but a 50% failure rate is a systemic issue

[@airforcerymer15]

@FrankS111 yeah exactly if the job is to sit behind a desk and get whatever it is done, done then that's different.

If somebody is letting go of 50% of their staff - they are the problem.

[@NDcompetitiveshooter]

Usually true, but if someone has a business that is seeking to offer exceptional quality and service it takes exceptional people working there to make it happen. Exceptional candidates are difficult to find by definition and many people present themselves way better during the interview process than they actually are. If he just went into building average homes with average workers and could settle for that then things would probably go a lot smoother, but I don't think his personality will allow it. There are certainly other issues in this situation, but that is one that shouldn't be overlooked.

[@rajbeekie7124]

I agree the sample size is small. There is a disconnect between perceptions. What Tom sees as average. The employee is seeing as perfection. Tom needs to hire people on a short term contract basis before hiring them full time. He may have to cycle through a few people to find the right person.

[@fornx8574]

There is a lot of reliance on personality testing. Maybe expanding the interview process where it is more one on one or getting another hire to ask the complex questions to the candidate will help give insight on the person you are taking on board. The whole time I kept hearing how much weight the caller was placing on the tests. He even tested himself and decided he was unhappy with the results. If the results are surprising, it might be an indicator that the tests are a soft science and not the absolute truth. Maybe like he said, "they are posers" is possibly accurate. Maybe these are people who know how to beat the system because if they are office people, they might have college degrees and in college it is all about passing the test.

[@kaohsiung99]

Tom needs to use a 'star system' to discern between 1-star work versus 5-star work. They can just go around looking at homes for sale & make it a training activity. Even photographs, videos, and their own shop should provide a great training facility.

We have several businesses, start with interior or complete demolition. We salvage the metals, resell the reusable iron, electrical, office furniture, kitchen equipment, etc, and rig out large equipment when necessary. It has been impossible to get good workers for almost every phase of our business, which throws all of the work on our family members, several of which are not available, full time. We teach them to do one thing, tell them to do it, and have everything set up for them to do it, but, when we stop by to check on them, they are doing something different, or just using a different method that will make the job take longer. Occasionally, we find them scrapping an item that was set aside for resale. And they can do an amazing amount of damage to equipment! One guy did $12,000 damage to one rental skid steer, while using it on a demolition site.

The kind of guy that wants something for nothing... Meaning he most likely isn't paying good with benefits.

[@Jason4Star]

If you are getting all the losers of your trade (sorry to use that term, but I hope you know what I mean), then it could be one a few things. 1) Your brand is not good enough yet to attract the really good people and you take what resumes you do get and chose what seem to be the best. 2) You are not reading people very good in interviews. In that case, use a recruiter (head hunter). 3) Your systems are not well known. 4) You try to micromanage in a situation you should not. Micromanaging is ALOT OF WORK. Just manage results, that's it. If someone you hire missed trim work or drywall finishing, it's on him to figure it out. He gets to fix it, or take it up with the client. You just sit back and manage the money.

[@qbanb8582]

I wonder if he has misplaced expectations and is a bigger part of the problem. Is the pay commensurate with the skill and attitude he is expecting. Are his employees paid a bonus if the job is done fast but with no discrepancies. Its real easy to motivated when you're the owner and have the ability to reap more of the benefit from these jobs. He mentioned that when these new hires are with other people they get the green light, but not long after being around Tom they're not a good fit.

I'm a farmer, primarily hogs. So glad I don't have employees (my wife and friends help at times). When I was raising certified organic crops, I did hire people to weed the soybean fields, whatever the cultivator didn't get. Hired 2 highschool kids. Had to pick them up, and I think one after 1.5 hours either didn't feel well or didn't want to do it. But the thing that really got to me was we were each weeding a row. I look back, and one of them is holding a weed in their hand, and pulling the leaves off. That's worse than just sitting there! The sad part is, if they actually worked hard, I could've paid $25/hour with the value a weeding operation can provide. I was in my 20's and my back hurt so bad from weeding, I was using a cane in the field sometimes, but I was making money, lol.

[@plannerjoy]

After reading the comment section there’s a common thread between the business owner’s perception and the employee’s perception of the situation. People with an employee mentality are convinced that he can’t find and retain good people because he’s not paying them enough and/or he has unreasonably high expectations. This type of thinking indicates that someone has never hired a person and paid them out of their pocket. Once you do you will be singing a different tune. The business owners feel his pain and collectively know the difficulty of finding individuals with adaptive and emotional intelligence to complete the job to the owner’s and customer expectations.

[@thomasdalton1508]

If you aren't spotting the technical problems during their training then you aren't doing the training right. Assessment is a core part of training. You should be showing them how to do it a couple of times and then stepping back and letting them do it and see how they do. If you aren't seeing that they can't do it during the training then I'm guessing they are spending most of the training watching you rather than doing it themselves with you watching them. You also have to accept that people aren't going to know everything when they start. You have to train them. He said there is no-one out there with experience doing what he's doing. Of course there isn't. You have to hire inexperienced people and train them. You can't just fire them after a few weeks because they don't already know it all.

[@xbebe]

God I love this question

[@AmbassadorGroup]

I’m a construction recruiter. We see this all the time. Most of these small business owners suffer from expert blindness, and because they are experts, they don’t know how to interview and train people to work their way, hence him thinking that he’s hiring qualified people, and they are probably qualified, but they don’t think like he does and he doesn’t realize that, no one is going to think like him automatically. He’s an expert at building homes, not building teams. This problem is deeper than just the interviewing process, it goes down to the foundation of the owners concept of what the role is and how it should be done and how systems and processes work together systematically to make the business run properly. This guy is used to dynamic problem-solving, which is why he was qualified to start the business, but many personalities need structure, systems, and process, not to mention this guy probably has all sorts of expectations that he has never made clear to the people around him. He expects people to Divine his will from observing him. I am not at all trying to be harsh. This is super common, and there are some wonderful people who do wonderful work who suffer from this kind of expert blindness that keeps businesses in the same frustrating cycles.

[@AmbassadorGroup]

It’s also interesting that he refers to those personality assessments as “tests“. A true personality assessment is not a pass fail exercise. It’s designed to increase everyone’s awareness of the personality dynamics so they can be navigated well. To think of personalities in the binary is a major opportunity for improvement.

[@AmbassadorGroup]

As others have noted, the owner is the problem. But it’s not unique to this guy. Every owner is the root of any problem in a business.

[@AmbassadorGroup]

Obviously, his interview process isn’t as thorough as it should be, not because he’s not trying, but because he doesn’t really know what he’s looking for.

[@AmbassadorGroup]

I admire his willingness to ask for help in this. Very few leaders are willing to admit that they are not succeeding in their hiring.

That was their normal operations. It was horrific for morale. It was one of the worst morale places I've ever worked. The hatred of the company was thick enough to cut with a knife. It was in the air. You felt it walking into the room. It was horrible. Do not do this. If you are firing people consistently, change your system. You are doing harm you can't see, that will infect your business.
