Friday’s HR Tip:

A personal post today. This is my sweet girl in a photo taken before her accident this week. She sustained a life-threatening injury, and it was one of the most difficult 12 hours I have experienced in a long time. She is home with me now, and I am incredibly grateful.
As I processed everything, I began thinking about how an employer might handle a situation like this.

Retaining good employees is important. Small businesses may not always have the resources to offer expensive benefits or elaborate retention programs—but empathy is a powerful benefit.

Had I been working for an employer, I would have needed time away from work. For an employer who genuinely cares about employees, situations like this are opportunities to offer support. Often, the greatest cost is simply a little flexibility, understanding, and time.

I believe that when we help employees through difficult life circumstances, they are better able to support our businesses, our clients, and one another.

The data supports the connection between engagement and business outcomes. According to Gallup, highly engaged teams see 10% higher customer loyalty/engagement and 23% higher profitability than teams with lower engagement. (Link to the article in the comments.)

Supporting employees through difficult seasons does not guarantee they will stay forever. But it can build trust, strengthen loyalty, and ensure they remember how they were treated when it mattered most.

Friday HR Tip:

Preparing for an Interview? Don’t Forget to Prepare as the Employer!

As an employer, preparing for an interview is just as important as preparing as a candidate. Start by reviewing the job description and identifying the essential functions and skills you must hire for—and which skills can be taught. This helps you focus the interview on what truly matters for success in the role.

Next, develop open-ended interview questions that will help you understand the applicant’s experience, skills, and ability to perform the job. But don’t stop at writing the questions—know what information you are looking for in each answer. A well-designed interview guide keeps you focused and helps you make meaningful comparisons between candidates.

Finally, prepare an interview sheet for the position and use the same core questions with every applicant. This creates a more consistent and objective interview process and helps reduce the risk of making hiring decisions based on “gut feeling” rather than job-related information. Good interviews don’t just happen—they’re prepared for.

Are you confident your interview process is consistent and objective? If not, Hunter HR Solutions can help you build an interview process that works. Let’s talk!

Friday HR Tip:

Keep interview questions focused on the job, not the applicant’s personal life. Avoid asking whether someone is married or has children, where they are originally from, their religion, age, or health. Even casual questions about these topics can create unnecessary risk for your business.

Instead, ask questions directly related to the position, such as: “Are you available to work the required schedule for this position?” “Are you authorized to work in the United States?” “Can you perform the essential functions of this position, with or without reasonable accommodation?” or “Tell me about your experience handling this type of responsibility.”

Better questions lead to better hiring decisions and help start the employee relationship on solid ground. Do you want to review your hiring practices? Visit HunterHRSolutions.com to schedule a free consultation.

Friday's HR Tip:

How often do you review your job descriptions?

Job descriptions should be reviewed at least annually—and every time you prepare to fill a position.

Keeping job descriptions current helps ensure employees understand the role’s essential duties, performance expectations, and required qualifications. It also helps you recruit and hire candidates who are truly qualified for the job your organization needs today, not the job as it existed years ago.

A current job description is the starting point for an effective hiring process.

08/14/2026

When writing job descriptions, be sure they reflect the essential functions of the job—the core responsibilities that explain why the position exists.

We often use job descriptions as task lists. Instead, when identifying essential functions, consider why the role exists and what the employee needs to understand in order to be successful.

When employees understand the core purpose of their role, employers can hire more intentionally, set clearer expectations, and manage performance more consistently.

When was the last time you reviewed your job descriptions?

Friday's HR Tip:

Clear job descriptions do more than help you hire. They set expectations, reduce confusion, and make performance conversations easier.

When people know exactly what success looks like in their role, they can focus their energy where it matters most.
