Cultivate a Strong Employer Brand

Offer Competitive Compensation and Benefits

In today’s market, top talent seeks more than just a paycheck. Offering competitive compensation and comprehensive benefits can help attract and retain the best candidates. In hospitality specifically, consider non-traditional benefits like employee discounts or added time off.

Provide Opportunities for Growth

Ambitious candidates look for opportunities to advance their careers. Offering clear career paths, professional development programs, and regular training can help attract top talent. Show potential hires that you invest in your employees’ growth and success.

Utilize Employee Referrals

Employee referrals can be a powerful tool in attracting top talent. Encourage your current employees to refer qualified candidates and offer incentives for successful hires. This can help you find high-quality candidates who are a good fit for your company culture.

Leverage Technology

Utilizing technology can streamline the hiring process and make it more efficient. Use applicant tracking systems, online job boards, and social media to reach a wider audience and attract top talent. Keep up with the latest technological trends to stay competitive in the hiring market.

Network within the Industry

  • What is the WOTC (Work Opportunity Tax Credit)?

    WOTC (Work Opportunity Tax Credit) is a federal tax credit available to business employers, both large and small. The credits are designed to offset Federal income tax liabilities. When the WOTC program is executed the right way, employers can capture enough tax credits to significantly reduce, or even eliminate, their Federal income tax liabilities. (And if your business was formed using a flow-through-entity, like a S-corp or LLC, then the credits could flow-through to the owner’s K-1).

  • How can WOTC impact my business?

    Executing the WOTC program is simple and easy with the right provider. We’ll screen your applicants to determine if they satisfy one of nine qualifying criteria. If so, our team of tax credit experts work with specific government agencies, behind the scenes, to capture the tax credits for you. Once captured, tax credits can be used to eliminate Federal income tax liabilities and thus improve cash flow for stakeholders and the business.
