You gotta love what you do....



If you love what you do, keep doing it. I loved opening Wynn’s hotels and figuring out how to keep improving our high volume hiring process. The HR team at Wynn Las Vegas screened nearly 125,000 applicants and passed half of those on to department hiring managers for consideration. We scheduled second interviews every half hour, developed behavioral questions that focused on attitude, had them input their interview results directly into computers, and gave them daily recruiting updates so they knew the status of their recruiting efforts.  Most hiring managers dislike interviewing because it’s not a core competency; our team loved it and they happily interviewed 55,000 applicants in 5 weeks.  The secret of our recruiting success was in the simplicity of the process, the clear instructions and training we provided, and the ease with which the process flowed. Make sure the processes and procedures you design for your employees are easy to understand and simple to use. They’ll love their job if you do that today.
