HOW TO USE SBA99 TO HIRE AND TRAIN NEW EMPLOYEES
Small business owners often struggle with hiring and training. SBA99 simplifies this process by offering tools tailored for small teams. This checklist ensures you use every feature correctly so you don’t waste time or money.
BEFORE YOU POST THE JOB
DEFINE THE ROLE IN SBA99’S JOB BUILDER
SBA99’s job builder walks you through creating a clear job description. Skipping this step leads to vague postings that attract unqualified candidates. A well-defined role filters out mismatches before you even review resumes.
SET UP SKILL TESTS IN ADVANCE
SBA99 lets you attach skill tests to job postings. If you skip this, you’ll spend hours interviewing candidates who can’t perform basic tasks. Pre-screening saves you from hiring someone who looks good on paper but fails in practice.
CHOOSE THE RIGHT PAY RANGE USING SBA99’S MARKET DATA
SBA99 provides local salary benchmarks. Posting a pay range that’s too low scares off top talent, while overpaying strains your budget. Use the data to stay competitive without overspending.
CUSTOMIZE THE APPLICATION FORM
SBA99’s default form asks for basic info, but you can add questions specific to your business. Skipping this means you’ll miss key details about candidates’ experience. Tailor the form to gather exactly what you need upfront.
ENABLE AUTOMATED SCREENING RULES
SBA99 can automatically reject applicants who don’t meet minimum requirements. If you skip this, you’ll manually review hundreds of unqualified resumes. Set rules to focus only on viable candidates.
DURING THE HIRING PROCESS
POST THE JOB TO SBA99’S PARTNER NETWORKS
SBA99 syndicates your posting to job boards like Indeed and ZipRecruiter. If you only post on one site, you’ll miss qualified candidates who use other platforms. Let SBA99 distribute it for you.
USE SBA99’S CALENDAR TO SCHEDULE INTERVIEWS
SBA99 syncs with your Google or Outlook calendar. Manually scheduling interviews wastes time and risks double-booking. Let the system handle it so you stay organized.
CONDUCT VIDEO INTERVIEWS THROUGH SBA99 99
SBA99’s built-in video tool records interviews for later review. Skipping this means you’ll rely on notes, which can be incomplete or biased. Recorded interviews let you compare candidates fairly.
SEND SKILL TESTS DURING THE INTERVIEW STAGE
SBA99 lets you assign tests after interviews. If you skip this, you might hire someone who interviews well but lacks real skills. Use tests to confirm abilities before making an offer.
CHECK REFERENCES USING SBA99’S TEMPLATE
SBA99 provides a reference-check form with key questions. Skipping this step leaves you guessing about a candidate’s past performance. Use the template to get consistent, actionable feedback.
AFTER THE HIRE
GENERATE AN OFFER LETTER IN SBA99
SBA99’s offer letter tool includes all required legal language. Writing one from scratch risks missing critical details or compliance issues. Use the template to ensure accuracy and professionalism.
SET UP ONBOARDING TASKS IN SBA99
SBA99’s onboarding checklist assigns tasks to new hires and managers. Skipping this leads to disorganization and missed steps like tax forms or training. Automate it so nothing falls through the cracks.
ASSIGN TRAINING MODULES THROUGH SBA99
SBA99 offers pre-built training modules for common roles. If you skip this, new hires learn at different paces, creating inconsistency. Use the modules to standardize training across your team.
SCHEDULE CHECK-INS USING SBA99’S REMINDERS
SBA99 sends automated reminders for 30-, 60-, and 90-day check-ins. Skipping these means you might miss early signs of trouble or success. Use the reminders to stay engaged with new hires.
COLLECT FEEDBACK VIA SBA99’S SURVEY TOOL
SBA99’s survey tool gathers feedback from new hires about the onboarding process. Skipping this leaves you guessing about what worked and what didn’t. Use the feedback to improve future hires.
TRAINING NEW EMPLOYEES WITH SBA99
CREATE A TRAINING PLAN IN SBA99
SBA99’s training plan builder helps you outline goals, timelines, and resources. Skipping this results in haphazard training that confuses new hires. A structured plan keeps everyone on track.
USE SBA99’S VIDEO LIBRARY FOR ROLE-SPECIFIC TRAINING
SBA99 includes videos for common small business roles like customer service or inventory management. Skipping this means you’ll spend time creating your own content or relying on outdated methods. Use the library to save time and ensure quality.
ASSIGN MENTORS THROUGH SBA99
SBA99 lets you pair new hires with experienced employees
