The process, stage by stage

Each page here leads with something you can use: a letter structure, a runbook, a plan, a set of ratios. Each stage carries the decision it exists to make and the specific way it goes wrong when nobody owns it.

Offer letter format An offer letter structure you can adapt and issue, clause by clause, the four clauses candidates re-read before declining, and what to do after they sign.
Onboarding process The onboarding process as an operational sequence: five phases from accepted offer to the end of month one, who owns each step, and where it actually fails.
Employee onboarding A 30-60-90 plan written from the manager side, what week six tells you that month nine cannot, and how ramp differs by role.
Hiring process steps Ten hiring process steps, the decision each one exists to make, and the specific way each one fails. Plus why the order matters more than the contents.
Shortlisting candidates A six-step shortlisting method, how many candidates a shortlist should hold, the criteria that look objective and are not, and what to hand the panel.
The recruitment funnel The recruitment funnel as a diagnostic: the ratio to watch at each stage, four funnel shapes and what each one is telling you, and how to read yours.
Employee turnover rates How to calculate employee turnover rates, the four cuts that actually predict anything, and how much of your turnover was decided at the point of hire.
Employer branding Employer branding audited as operations rather than marketing: the eleven surfaces a candidate touches in order, and the four numbers that measure it.

Every page here carries the same funnel numbers, each one sourced. See the workings and the citations.
