Hiring managers from resources, construction and finance joined us for our Perth Employer Breakfast Series. Here are the key takeaways from the discussion.
Retention starts at onboarding
Several attendees said the first 90 days decide whether a new starter stays. Structured onboarding, a buddy and early check-ins made a measurable difference.
Pay expectations have shifted
Candidates are better informed about market rates and expect transparency early in the process. Advertising a salary range reduced wasted interviews for many attendees.
Speed wins candidates
Good candidates often hold several offers. Teams that shortened their interview process and gave fast feedback reported higher acceptance rates.
Flexibility beyond the office
Even in site-based industries, flexible rosters, start times and leave arrangements are becoming part of the offer.
