On Friday, I had to go through the experience of firing someone from my janitorial staff. Firing someone is one of the worse feelings I have ever experienced but it was for the good of the company so the only thing that I can do from here is to move on. Moving on is what I intended on doing today so I began going through applications and resumes so that I can replace the old one. Going through resumes is probably one of the most time consuming and difficult tasks that I've done so far too. Trying to sort through the many applications and find which one sparks your interest the most is a tough task! I think that one thing that makes the selection so hard for me is that I am somewhat a perfectionist. So when I look at the applications, I tend to be a little picky but its only because I know what is best for the club.
I ended up finding a few applications that I really liked so the next step for me was to call the applicants and set up for an interview. When calling the applicants and setting up for the interviews, I have to be firm when setting the times for the interviews. So what I did was I set up time blocks that applicants could potentially come in and have their interview. This would help to set the tone for me to let them know that my time here is very valuable and that they need to be able to work around my schedule if they are going to work in the company. I ended up scheduling interviews for this Thursday and Friday. Let the interviewing begin!
