How We Consistently Find Rock-Star Employees (Even When We’re Not Hiring) Hiring isn’t a once-a-year thing—it’s a year-round strategy. If we come across a rock star, we hire them, even if it means upgrading a B+ player on our team. Here’s how we keep a steady stream of top talent coming in: ✅ We Make the Job Look Fun – Our Indeed postings (thanks to a format Josh created) focus on culture, growth, and excitement—NOT job requirements. The right people will see themselves in the opportunity. ✅ We Tap Into Local Networks – We send job postings to 30+ large churches in our area, asking them to share with their congregations. ✅ We Get Creative With College Recruiting – We post full-page job flyers above every urinal in classroom buildings. If you’re standing there, you’re reading it! ✅ We Leverage Our Customers – We’ve emailed our 6,400-person customer list asking for referrals. Our customers know our values and can help us find like-minded people. ✅ We Carry “You Impressed Me” Cards – Every manager has cards with a QR code linking to our application page. When we see someone delivering great service—whether it’s a grocery bagger, a tire shop worker, or a Panera employee—we hand them a card and invite them to apply. ✅ We Use Social Media to Drive Applications – Every job post directs people to our application page at AllWashed.com. ✅ We Don’t Just Wait for Applicants to Come to Us – We actively scout talent in the real world. The best hires aren’t always looking for a job, but they’ll make a move if the right opportunity comes their way. Recruiting isn’t just about filling an opening—it’s about building a winning team. If we're still only hiring when we're desperate, you’re missing out on top talent. How do you all recruit? Always looking for new ideas! 🔥👇
