You don’t need fancy technology, lots of money, or many months together to get to know a lot about each new hire.

- A genuine desire to get to know each person

- A little creativity, ideas, and a plan

- To start {execute your plan and adjust and evolve as needed/desired}

On today’s show, I share one of the things we do at my company, Restaurant HR Group to learn a ton about our new hires on their very first day.
