THE ROOKIE PLAYBOOK

 

Melissa Haworth is the CEO of Shorefront Restorations. Shorefront Restorations is a real estate business providing service for Panama City communities in the wake of Hurricane Michael. She specializes in raising private funding and loves seeing people achieve financial freedom. She also helps people who don’t qualify for mortgages to achieve homeownership through rent-to-own programs.

Melissa joins me today to learn the intricacies of hiring employees as a real estate business owner. I share my hiring methods and tools we use in the company. I share my experience with profile tests, the hits and misses, and the lessons I learned from them. I also explain the importance of identifying the right fit for each person you interview and the biggest mistakes I’ve made when hiring new employees.
