Preparing for a Challenging Hiring Season

(from One Schoolhouse) Independent schools are considering a number of changes to their hiring practices and processes this year: in-person vs. online interviews; earlier conversations with faculty & staff around contracts; desired competencies & skills of new hires; considerations around being on campus next school year; and business model (expense & revenue) drivers. In a recent informal survey from One Schoolhouse, 70% of responding schools said they planned to change four or more practices, and only 5% reported changing a single hiring practice. NBOA's James Palmieri and Amber Stockham presented on a recent webinar with One Schoolhouse about the hiring landscape for the 21-22 school year and offered guidance on how academic leaders should partner with their business offices to be prepared for a challenging hiring season.
