One way to lower the possibility of a bad hire is to have a standardized hiring process. Perhaps a year-long orientation process would ,also, help keep newly hired employees. Make the new hired feel welcome by introducing them to key staff and take them on a tour of the facilities. The manager should schedule meeting with the new employee to discuss how they are adjusting to their new job.

“Too often, hiring managers are so anxious to put a body in the vacant chair that they overlook candidates’ flaws and end up hiring someone who really doesn’t meet the needs of the job, CareerBuilder noted.”
