You’ve recruited the best Accounting Manager you’ve ever interviewed! The offer letter is signed, the background check is cleared, and the start date is set. Whew. Now the hard work is done. Or is it? The reality is that your first 90 days with a new hire is crucial to their long-term success. Research shows that one-third of approximately 1,000 employees have quit a job within six months of starting it. That’s a lot of time, energy, and money. So how do you ensure longevity? ✨ Onboarding starts before they start. Consider sending the new hire access to your company’s intranet or any pre-boarding portals where they can start completing necessary paperwork, thus freeing up their first day for more engaging activities. ✨ Document processes and procedures. Utilize tools that allow you to create step-by-step guides or videos explaining common procedures within your department. ✨ Set up cross-functional dialogue. Encourage your new hire to interact with different departments early on. Understanding how the accounting functions tie into other parts of the business is essential for a holistic view of the company’s objectives. For more onboarding tips, check the Forge blog.

Have you ever wondered how to write the perfect resume? How to capture all of your accomplishments and successes? We created a guide to writing a succinct, modern resume that will help gain attention from hiring managers. You want to include important things like a summary, professional experience, take into account the length -- no more than 2 pages, and add in education & technical skills. To read more in-depth and also have a downloadable template to reference, check our Forge insights. Link in the comments.

An interview's strength depends on asking the right questions. We recommend making a list of open-ended questions to use with each candidate you interview for a particular role and ask each candidate the same questions. This is the best way to assess every candidate you interview fairly. Second, get to know the person -- what do they value in life and work? What is their background? It's a good way to see who they are outside of their skills set. Ask things like, "What legacy did you leave at your last job?" Last but not least, offer the opportunity for the candidate to ask *you* questions. What type of questions are they asking you? (Hint: if you're being interviewed, always have a spare question or two!).

A little motivation to help get you through the week.✨

Our team members Noemi Prinoth and Rhiannon Poore thoroughly enjoyed the recent Stammtisch gathering of the #GACCSouth. They networked with international business leaders while learning about the different cultures that make Greenville what it is, a richness of diversity.
