Doesn't a prohibition period on hiring only work if you're hiring children?
I can't imagine leaving an existing job only to be not guaranteed a place at a new job if "they don't like me" in the first few weeks. That's what the interview process was supposed to suss out. Does immediate termination come with a three month severance package?

You're asking someone to take a big risk with your company by bringing them on on probation. They may be leaving a well-paying, stable job to do it. You have to do something to temper that risk, ideally with a very large severance or something like it.
- ashrust 13y agoWe're upfront about the probationary period with all candidates, they start knowing they'll receive a lot of feedback in the first few weeks, they'll get an opportunity to see if it's a fit from their side and also from the team's side.
