Anatomy of a Perfect Hourly Employee
Culturally diverse
• Millennials, or Generation Y, workers are expected to make
up more than half of the workforce by the year 2020.
• This is the most culturally diverse generation, and they
work will with all walks of life.
• Hiring Millennials helps instantly diversify your restaurant
with employees known to work well in groups of all kinds
of people.
Values Intangible benefits
• 60% of applicants place a positive company culture as
the highest importance when it comes to benefits.
• Applicants looking for a good work environment are
the ones you should be hiring.
Higher expectations of
career progress, like to be
challenged to move ahead
• Employees displaying a drive for
success and wanting to move up
in the company are the kind of
hires you want to replicate.
• Challenging employees to
further their skills makes them
more likely to stay with the
company for a successful career,
rather than just an hourly job.
• Applicants asking questions
during the interview process
like “how can I move up in this
company” and “how will I be
challenged here” are the ideal
candidates for long-lasting,
engaged employees.
• Furthermore, asking
applicants questions like “where
do you see yourself in six
months if you were to get this
job” and “why do you believe
you will be a good fit here” can
give hiring managers an insight
on who the applicant is and
what his/her goals are.
Tech Savvy
• Technology is everywhere and only
improving each day.
• Tech savvy employees can learn on
newer software easily and quickly,
and will likely have suggestions for
improvements, too.
Personality
• You can’t train a positive
personality.
• Applicants who may have less
experience but seem to be a good
fit with the company culture are
worth training.
• It’s also a good idea to have
applicants interact with your
current staff.
• Staff feedback will give you a good
idea on how the applicant will fit in
with the company culture.
Communicate Effectively
• Interpersonal skills are something else that can’t be trained.
• Applicants who seem to be able to communicate well with
others in the interview process will likely hold that skill
during the job.
• Communication with customers, managers and peers is
essential in a good employee.
Honesty
• No one is perfect and we all make mistakes.
• Perhaps an applicant is honest during the interview
process about being fired from a job before, but is able
to explain what was learned from past mistakes.
• An honest employee is a good employee and holds
qualities you should be looking for in new hires.
