SMART for Business:
Creative Hiring

Thursday, November 2 | 7:30 - 9 a.m. | Normandale Lake Office Park

Hiring is one of the most expensive things that a business owner does. Oftentimes, companies avoid much needed experience because they think they can’t incur the cost. However, savvy companies are getting creative in how they approach hiring by creating strong cultures, unique benefits, and non-traditional positions that allow them to get the right people in the right positions to accelerate their growth.
