Amber Hawley is the CEO of Fremont Counseling Services, who specializes in Couples Therapy.  She’s had her company since 2011 and started hiring employees 2 years later. I recently watched from afar as Amber hired - and happily bragged about - two amazing new employees and knew she was in the process of hiring four more!

 

So I asked her to come on and share a bit about her process...how she attracts and hires great employees.  

 

During this conversation, Amber shares her step by step process and intention behind each of those steps.  

 

She talks about...

 

  1. Marketing - streamlined ways of making the position public and letting others know she was hiring.
  2. The application process - unique things she does to help weed through all the wrong people.
  3. Hiring - what she focuses on during each interview and how she standardizes them.
  4. Onboarding - how she ensures her employees ease into their positions.
  5. Mindset - shifting her paradigm of her position in her company as her team grows!

This is a fascinating case study, not just of Amber’s best practices, but also of all the painful mistakes she’s made (as we all have!) that continue to help her evolve as the leader of her company!

 

Side note: Amber is also the owner of CouplesFix.com where she shares her knowledge and tools as a Licensed Marriage Therapist with a larger world of people who are searching for it.  http://couplesfix.com/

 

And, she is also the co-host of the My Biz Bestie Podcast, alongside Maelisa Hall, which is amazing! https://www.mybizbestie.com/
