Transcript:
This is episode 242 of Bella in Your Business. Hi there, I'm Bella Vasta from Jump Consulting. You might know me from CBS, NBC, Fox, Huffington Post, Entrepreneur, or maybe you've seen me speak on stage or read my book, The Four Dogs That Every Business Owner Needs. In any case, get ready because you're about to get your hashtag Bella Butt Kickin' in this next episode of Bella in Your Business.
So what do you say? Let's get ready and jump. Welcome to another episode of Bella in Your Business. My name is Bella Vasta. Today, I'm going to let you in on a little excerpt of something that I did in that high gear hiring challenge that we had this past month of May 2021. It was an incredible time where a lot of pet sitters kind of came together and rallied together to hire as many people as they needed to. And I'd like to say it was a huge success. We had over 25 people hired across the board and in this volatile hiring environment, I consider that a major win. Also, we had a lot of good information and insight and ideas thrown around and definitely out-of-the-box examples of the way things work.
Now, if you didn’t get a chance to join us in there, you can always join us in the mastermind at jumpconsulting.net/mastermind to really be around a bunch of winners who are making things happen—not in the normal ways you hear about in Facebook groups. I also would be remiss if I did not give a shout-out to our other two sponsors, JazzHR, who are helping pet sitters and dog walkers hire multiple people at once because of the simplification of the process they provide for us, and Pet Care Team Training, which is a simplified, strategic, and specific onboarding system where you can do 13 videos in under two hours and get your pet sitters and dog walkers certified, even adding pet CPR and first aid. You can go to PetCareTeamTraining.com to check that out, or if you want to see the videos, visit petcareteamtraining.com/freevideos.
All right, we're going to get right into this episode. This is going to be a smaller one again, but I have made a commitment this year to give you what you need to know. We’re going to stay on this hiring theme, and today we’re going to talk about how to accept video applications. What? Yeah—we can accept video applications, and we're going to get into that today.
So, how do I go about taking video applications? Is there a best practice around the length of video? What types of questions are best for video? And what are the top five interview questions to find the right candidate? I love this, and I’ve got notes for you guys—it’s also to help make sure I stay on track. The first thing we need to discuss is how to accept them...
