A Day When Plans Go Accordingly

Today was a real test.

Today, my trainee took the reins with our new hires and interviewees.  It gave her a chance to see how to do both jobs in one day, as I do very often.

While she was doing the hiring today, I did little projects around the office, including getting ready for a district meeting this weekend.

During her orientation, I sat in to watch her work.  Our district manager walked in and whispered to me, "She's really good."  I agreed.

There are some areas to tweak as I asked her how she thought everything went today.  Of course, I started off telling her the good comments the district manager said.  Everyone deserves to hear something good about themselves. 

She's getting better with her confidence.  I didn't even go in for her interviews.  I have enough confidence in her to trust she knows what kind of people she wants.  

I left her in the office to finish off her payroll so I could take care of some family needs. 

If and when I leave, the company will have a fully, trained recruiter and hiring manager. 

It was a good day, as pretty much everything went according to plan. 

I'm ready for a new opportunity.  I think when you can completely train someone to take your place, you are good to go if you so desire.
