That sounds great, fair to both sides, etc... until you realize that very few candidates will accept an offer with an employer that fires 10-20% of new hires after a month.
So realistically, in the current job market, you'll either have to deceive the candidate, and carefully hide this wholesome policy, or lose all the good candidates who have other offers and won't drop them to run a serious risk of being fired in a month.
Remember that "not getting along" may mean you don't (initially) jive well with the other team members, not that you aren't an adult. Only a naive (and inexperienced) candidate would believe that "it won't happen to me" if you really are letting people go so fast.
- koheripbal 5y agoPerspective employees usually have no idea what the fire-rate is at a company they are interviewing at.
- NeverFade 5y agoCorrect, but now this policy doesn't seem very wholesome or sustainable, since it relies on deceiving the candidate to hiding itself and its resulting fire-rate.
