I-9 forms are one of those incredible mysteries of the modern era. The paper form is only a page long, and seems simple at first glance, but there are predators lurking in the shadows. All said, the forms are filled out by employers incorrectly an incredible 50% of the time. This often happens because HR often cannot oversee all of the hiring processes in every location, and there is incredible detail in the small print. This remarkable number of mistakes puts companies at risk for serious ducats. HRM is soon releasing the i9Pad which automates all of this, and helps companies get the document right the first time. We think that is pretty cool.

Job offers come with the inevitable packets of onboarding forms that we must send via FedEx before candidates can officially start working. I can’t help but think that using all that paper, money, manpower and gas on sending an envelope from New York to my campus in Medford, MA is all wasted when a simple e-mail could have accomplished the same thing.

My statistics professor once told me that what can not be measured can not be improved. My philosophy professor once told me that if you don’t know where you came from, you can’t know where you are going. Combining these two statements, I conclude that the best way to reach your end-goal is to reflect upon past performance and look for areas of improvement. For the enterprising recruiter who wants to double his success rate, this means using metrics.

Most job candidates will have heard the same types of interview questions reworded a thousand times by the time they interview with your company.
