Staffing Social Startups: Hiring and Firing for Social Enterprise
http://meetu.ps/qZmT4
Getting a new organization started can be tough – how do you find the right people? How do you deal with payroll and benefits? How do you keep the people you want and get rid of the ones you don’t? This event will help social enterprise organizations make those decisions, understand how and where to post jobs and find the right employees or volunteers, and how to avoid common mistakes in hiring.
