The biggest complaints I am hearing are either “we can’t get good employees” or “we can’t get any at all.”
You walk into just about any hotel and you are lucky if you can get housekeeping services and if so, it may only be if you are staying for 3 days or longer or they drop it off for you to do yourself.
So the first thing I talk to clients about is that you have to give up on the idea of finding good employees. Because what they’re thinking about is that they’re going to get a ready-to-go person that is like bringing home a lamp from Home Depot, and they are going to plug it in and it’s going to light up, and it’ll be a good employee, like a good lamp. That might be doable when you had an enormous supply of people looking for a finite number of jobs. We have the exact opposite.
You hear about unemployment numbers being a good percentage and about job creation being good. The number they don’t like to talk about much is that we have the lowest workforce participation number in 40 years. Which translates to the highest number of people choosing not to work in 40 years. So you are not going to go to Home Depot, get one, bring them home, plug them in, and they are going to be a good employee. It’s a unicorn hunt.
So, first thing, you need to think in terms of finding good people, is finding a good person with some evidence that they can be trained up, coached up to perform in the position you have. You need to broaden your idea of what you are going to start with.
Here is the new reality. In this environment, staffing is now a marketing problem. It’s not really a hiring problem. So like it or not, and I would not like it, you are now in a supply and demand equation that is very unfavorable to you and you are very unlikely to solve your problem by just throwing a listing up on indeed.com.
