Staffing Shortages: What is everyone doing to attract talent?

    It seems like most shelter directors I talk to these days are dealing with some level of staffing shortage. What are you doing to recruit and retain talent?

    We here at the city of Memphis have offered a hiring bonus for staff, and are pushing on social media but still having trouble getting people from interview to actual hire.

    Has anyone found any successful ways to get staff right now?
