Expenses for training
When you hire the wrong person, you will find that you need to rearrange your work to accommodate this new employee. Instead of simply letting employees go, you must provide additional training and ongoing performance reviews. These extra costs will cost a lot of time and money.
In the end, he or she may be the right employee for your company, however, you need to consider the case that they do not intend to stay long term.
Impact on employee morale
Employees who are not qualified and experienced will often affect the work process of other employees. They will take time to "hand-hold, just" for new employees and affect their current work. In the long run, this will affect the overall productivity of the company.
Besides, when you are spending your time and money trying to fix the mistake of hiring the wrong person, other employees can become unstable due to this personnel change. In many cases, these people will not be able to get along with other employees, which can cause problems with team cohesion.
Reputation influence
An unprofessional employee can cause the company's brand to be affected in the eyes of customers. This comes from the fact that they equate the professionalism of the company with the way employees work. At this point, you cannot justify it and it takes a lot of effort and time to recover.
Another reason is that a person who is not suitable for a new position will not be very satisfied with the company's environment. So it is very likely that they will not speak well of your unit to many people after leaving. This is also a factor that makes you lose some potential candidates in their network.
Instead of spending a lot of time and money after hiring the wrong person, in the next time, you should give specific criteria needed for the position you are recruiting, then screen and select carefully to choose the right person.
