Are your therapists skills tested?

August 27th, 2008

Employing staff is a very important task, in fact as a salon owner or manager, it is probably your most important decision – to have the right staff to suit your salon’s needs is essential. As a business decision, you will need an analytical approach in selecting staff. To recruit and select the most suitable staff for your salon, including a detailed practical skills test within the interview process is a must.

During our practical skills service, the main skills identified are:
Correct communication skills to meet the client’s wants and needs.
That communication involves a two-way conversation.
The therapist uses initiative and interacts well with the client.
Practical skills are current and technical skills are accurate.
The client is given professional and home-care advice.
The assessment and all practical skills are done to the time frame.
The candidate is working according to Health & Safety standards, and kept work areas clean and organised.

We will test each therapist thoroughly, forwarding you an in-depth scored and written report on each candidate. For more information on our service contact Liz McKeon 0868179421.
