In this episode, Shaun Hiscox talks with Ryan about how he works with businesses to help implement recruitment processes to help find the 'right' people for the job. He goes on to discuss how important it is for business to be focused on their recruiting/recruitment process, as finding customers is the easy part of business, finding the right staff/team members is where the real challenge is. He explains to Shaun how there are 3 experiences that every business has: 1) The Brand Experience, 2) The Customer Experience and 3) The Employee Experience - the final one being the 'core' aspect. If you create a great experience for your employees, then they will create a great experience for your customers and happy customers will take care of your brand and reputation.
