How
did you do?
Real Estate Agents place a lot of importance on offering
a point of difference in marketplace awareness and branding to attract and retain
clients. In an industry where your business is 'only as good as the people within'
employers should be considering what they have in place to attract and retain
good employees. In a candidate-short market, the importance of retaining good
people emphasises the need to become an employer of choice offering a 'point of
difference'. If your company rated highly
on the above quiz then you are well on your way to being an employer of choice,
which will give your company the edge to attract, optimise and retain good staff. However,
if your rating is not as good as you would like then feel free to contact
our Directors, Mark Appleby or Jeanette Hockney to discuss how we can assist
you in repositioning your company to become an employer of choice.
