Dept in a Box Series: Interviewing, Hiring, and Onboarding

In today's episode, we're breaking down one of the most important (and most misunderstood) departments in every non-alc bar, bottle shop, or third space: Interviewing, Hiring & Onboarding.

Inside this episode, we look at: • Why hiring is a department, not a task • How to interview for values, not just resumes • The standards that determine the quality of every hire • The onboarding mistakes that cost businesses thousands • What a real onboarding system looks like • How this department reduces turnover, protects culture, and stabilizes growth If you want the templates, the interview scripts, the hiring rubrics, and the complete onboarding system we use with clients, you can get The Hiring & Onboarding Box here: https://themodernmocktail.thrivecart.com/the-hiring-onboarding-box/ This is Part 3 of the Department in a Box Series.
