Are You Willing to Hire Apprentices?

If you’re currently struggling to hire applicants and keep employees, I have a question for you…

Should you hire and train apprentices?

I work with many clients who are strictly looking for employees with a ton of experience, ready to hit the ground running on day one.

The problem is that if you try to wait for a perfectly experienced applicant to fill your role, it often remains unfilled for a long time, right?

Further, you’re missing out on potential candidates who want to build up their experience WITH YOU.

Why is offering an apprenticeship role a good option?

For you…

-You will increase your applicant pool by widening your qualifications net (some of our clients have seen up to a 50% increase!).

-More often than not, the apprentices you train will have greater loyalty to you than candidates you hire who already have experience in their field. This means less turnover down the road! 

-You can train apprentices the way that YOU want to train them. You won’t have to compromise with how an experienced employee “has always done things”.

For applicants… 

-Paid training with the opportunity for career growth or a career change!

If you‘ve been failing to hire and keep experienced employees, an apprenticeship might just be your magic hiring (and retention) solution!
