Why Do Team Members Stay? Diving Into HireLevel Stay Stories.
Jul 29, 2022
Happy 27th Anniversary HireLevel!
We wanted to do something special for our upcoming anniversary and thought it would be a #GreatIdea to ask our team members the big question “Why did they choose to stay?”We chatted with many different team members and the top comments that we heard were…
- Great Culture Fit
- Mentored by Another Team Member
- Growth Opportunities and Training
Retention is a big piece of #TheGreatEngagement and HireLevel makes an effort each and every day to listen, engage, and encourage our team members. With monthly meetings, team-building exercises, and weekly lunches, our goal is to make our team feel like they matter… because they do.
What are your business retention efforts?
HireLevel Stay Stories
Meet Makenzi, a Senior Recruitment Marketing Consultant.
“My AHA Moment with HireLevel was before I even worked here. I saw on Facebook that HireLevel offered a Baby at Work program and told my little new grad self “That’s where I need to be.” Although I didn’t have children at the time and still do not, seeing that a company valued family and parenting was something I wanted to be a part of for my future. My actual working here AHA Moment was probably in my first week. I had never worked in an environment where even at entry-level, you are encouraged to share ideas on how HireLevel can be better. Even though my ideas tend to be off the wall, may not be the best, and can be borderline “what is wrong with this girl”, I always feel empowered to share them. I always get great feedback on either 1)why it is a great idea or 2)why it isn’t going to work. I’m never just brushed off. If you’re someone who loves knowing “the why” behind something, HireLevel is your place to prosper. ”
Meet Joe, the Regional Manager of Indiana.
“My most recent “Stay Story” happened a couple of months ago, the hot topic at the time was accountability and I received an unsolicited email from Teresa. It was like she read my mind and knew exactly what challenge I was currently facing, without me having to say it. The message included some helpful advice, validated she understood my strengths and areas of opportunity and encouraged me to rise to the challenge ahead. In my opinion, there is nothing more engaging than having a leader who not only recognizes and acknowledges the “whole” you, but also values your strengths and encourages you to rise to the challenge and reach your potential. ”
Meet Nicole, Digital Marketing Coordinator.
“At HireLevel, I’ve always been encouraged to reach for the stars, speak up and get to my know my other team members. I wanted to stay because I had great connections and friendships with not only my team but our entire company. With team building, work parties and get together we can all become closer than work colleagues, we have become a close-knit organization.”
Meet Jessica, a Client Relationship Manager.
“HireLevel believes in work-life balance, they have allowed me to grow in my career while also putting my family first.”
Meet Lacee, the Recruitment Marketing Manager.
“Working with this team was one of the big reasons why I love working at HireLevel. If you are looking for a company that thrives on positive energy, is technology-driven, and rewards hard work – HireLevel is the perfect fit. I love working with the Marketing team – they are passionate, positive, trustworthy, collaborative, and of course so much fun! ”
Meet Karsen, a Senior Sales, and Marketing Manager
“Over the course of 6 years, I’ve carved my own path. I’ve been heard, my voice has been welcomed, my perspective has been broadened, and my skill set has been believed in yet also grown. It’s not easy. It’s worth it. Miranda Lambert said it best – “when everything is handed to you, it’s only worth as much as the time put in. “ At HireLevel, when you work hard, others work hard for you. They become your people. You’ll be invested in, challenged, and supported. I stay for my people.”
Meet Danielle, an HCM Operations Supervisor.
“At HireLevel, you matter. You are not just an employee number. You matter, your family matters, your goals personal and professional, matter. This is a company that invests in you as a person and encourages growth in all aspects of life. From the Baby at Work Program to flexible schedules, and all the benefits offered, HireLevel gives you the opportunity to be your best. The sky is the limit.”
