- **Event Name**: The REAL Cost of a Bad Hire In Construction | Lunch N Learn
- **Event Start and End Date**: Tue, 24 Feb, 2026 at 11:00 am – Tue, 24 Feb, 2026 at 01:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Hiring in construction shouldn’t feel this hard — but for a lot of employers, it does.

If you’ve ever made a hire that didn’t work out, you already know the cost goes far beyond wages. It impacts productivity, strains your team, and puts you right back into hiring mode.

Join us for an interactive Lunch &amp; Learn by Corinne Perkins, with Plenty of Hires, designed specifically for construction employers (it applies to all industries though).  Together she’ll break down the real cost of a bad hire, how to spot red flags before Day One, and practical ways to hire and retain the right people without wasting time.

What we’ll cover:
• The true cost of a bad hire (and how to calculate it)
• Better interview questions that reveal fit, not just skill
• Simple ways to test candidates before you hire
• How to set expectations before Day One
• Onboarding and Retention tips and tricks
