About the Book

Creating a WOW experience for candidates and new starters doesn't have to be hard, yet many company's struggle to achieve it.

All it takes is a decision to put the candidate and new starter at the heart of your process and combine this with your business goals, and you too can create a WOW experience.

In this book I take my years of experience and condense it down to a simple field manual for any manager or HR team who may be struggling with attracting the right candidates, getting them to join your company and then on boarding them with care and dignity.

I dig deep in to what problems you're trying to solve with hiring, creating compelling adverts, working with agencies, conducting awesome interviews and designing a WOW experience for your candidates and new starters.

This is a simple and easy to follow guide for managers and HR professionals looking to hire talented professionals.

I've had some awful interview and induction experiences hence I swore, when I became a manager and leader, I wouldn't put others through this. This book is the outcome of building WOW hiring and onboarding experiences.

Inside, You’ll Discover

• Rethinking Hiring: How assumptions and the wrong approach hold you back
• The Hiring Plan: Identify problems and opportunities before you hire
• Sourcing Talent: Attract the right candidates effortlessly
• Job Adverts That Work: Communicate your company’s story and value

• Designing a WOW Service: Transform every touchpoint into a positive experience
• Onboarding that Sticks: Ensure new hires feel valued, capable, and inspired
• Flow & Process: Bring everything together into a seamless hiring journey

Plus practical examples and a sample onboarding plan.
