In this episode I talk to Jamie Van Cuyk, the owner and lead strategist of Growing Your Team. She helps women, small business owners become confident leaders who hire correctly every single time. It's a big promise, but Jamie backs it up and shares with us in this episode the keys to getting it right. 

In our conversation Jamie shares with us the 4 things to look out for in your business to know that it is time to hire, and we chat about common pitfalls you should avoid when trying to hire in your interior design business. We also dive into what to look for in your ideal candidate, how to ask the right questions in an interview, and how critical the onboarding process is to your new hire’s success and your business success. 

As a business owner, hiring is one of the most important things you will do in your business and when you don’t get it right, it can be such a source of stress and losing time, money, and energy. This is not something that you should take lightly and it will always be important to continue to hone your skills when it comes to hiring or outsourcing it. 

Thank you for tuning into this episode, I hope I encouraged you to take the hiring process seriously and you learned valuable tools to help you build your dream interior design business team
